This style is an excellent piece to layer under blazers, or cardigans for a more conservative work environment.  The cowl is quite gentle and comes from high up on the neck so as to not expose too much skin. 

This style is available in a luxurious merino wool OR a blend of viscose from modal (made specifically from beech wood trees) and spandex jersey, which has a lovely weighty drape that falls beautifully on the body.
