Blue Skies Striped Rugby Sweater

Why we love it (for you) The rugby sweater is having a moment, and this one gives you the trend without feeling like you borrowed it from a college kid. The bold stripes, contrasting collar, and open neckline give it that sporty-preppy look while still feeling polished enough for your everyday wardrobe. We especially like the open neckline because it breaks up the horizontal stripes near the face and gives you a little more vertical line through the upper body. Pair it with denim and sneakers for casual days, or add trousers and loafers when you want the preppy look to feel a little more grown-up. Quick Details Rugby-inspired striped sweater Contrasting polo collar Open V-neckline Long sleeves Standard-length silhouette Ribbed hem and cuffs Blended knit fabric Spandex added for comfortable stretch Easy everyday layering piece Fabric & Care Polyester/Spandex blend We recommend machine washing cold on gentle and laying flat to dry to help maintain the knit, color, and shape. Fit Notes Easy, comfortable fit with a standard length measuring approximately 50–65 cm (19.7–25.6"). The stretch in the fabric gives it comfortable movement without needing an oversized silhouette. Lisa’s Styling Tip With a bold horizontal stripe, keep the bottom half simple. Medium or dark-wash denim creates an easy visual anchor. Want to dress it up? Try a trouser, loafer, and simple gold jewelry—the contrast between sporty and polished is what makes this one fun. FAQ Is this a true rugby shirt? It has the trending rugby-inspired look with wide stripes and a contrasting collar, but it is made from a soft blended knit rather than a traditional heavyweight rugby-shirt fabric. Does it have stretch? Yes. Spandex is blended into the fabric for added flexibility and comfortable movement. Is the neckline low? It has an open V-style neckline, but the polo collar gives it structure and keeps the overall look polished. Is it cropped? No. This is a standard-length sweater rather than a cropped style. Can I wear it under a jacket? Yes. The knit and standard length make it an easy choice under denim jackets, casual coats, and vests. How do I style wide horizontal stripes? Let the sweater be the statement. A solid bottom, simple shoes, and minimal jewelry keep the outfit balanced rather than busy.
