ANTIBrand Polka Bats Lightweight Long Cardigan

Drape yourself in an elongated layer of soft texture and shifting shadows, designed to bring gothic elegance to your everyday rotation.

The Polka Bats Lightweight Long Cardigan takes our signature whimsical motif and scales it into a dramatic, sweeping silhouette. Cut to a sophisticated mid-length profile, this open-front duster is crafted from a premium textured cotton slub knit that provides a cosy yet lightweight feel. The off-white base is scattered with our distinctive "Polka Bats" motif- a beautifully uniform repeat print of miniature black bat silhouettes that echo classic polka dots from afar. Complete with relaxed long sleeves and subtle elasticated cuffs, this cardigan offers a fluid, breezy drape that instantly elevates everything from basic street styles to tailored alternative workwear.

• Material: Premium Cotton Slub Blend (86% Polyester, 14% Spandex)—softly textured knitted fabric that is lightweight, warm, and slightly elastic.
• Fit: Loose, relaxed, mid-length duster cut with a flowing open-front placket designed to flatter all body shapes.
• Design: "Polka Bats" high-contrast monochrome repeat print featuring tiny black bats on a soft white textured base.
• Features: Elegant longline architectural drape, comfortable long sleeves, and flexible elasticated cuffs.
• Versatility: Pairs effortlessly with basic camisoles, high-waisted jeans, dark leggings, statement high heels, or heavy combat boots.
• Style: A striking layering staple for casual goth aesthetics, cosy grunge loungewear, and alternative office apparel.
• Ethics: Consciously made-to-order to focus on quality craftsmanship and eliminate excess retail deadstock.

Layer this flowing longline cardigan over a sleek black bodysuit and distressed denim for an instant casual goth look, or wear it over a structured button-up shirt as an alternative corporate layering piece. The premium slub cotton texture offers subtle visual depth while providing the perfect amount of unrestrictive insulation for transitional weather. Its dramatic length catches the air beautifully as you move, ensuring your alternative style remains unmistakably distinct whether lounging at home or exploring the city sprawl.

Perfect for: Transitional autumn layering, corporate goth office wear, casual evening strolls, and cosy travel lounges.

Do not use bleach. Do not tumble dry; hang to dry naturally in the shade to maintain shape elasticity and garment structure. Cool iron if needed.
