The ultimate layering heroes

Let's face it, finding that perfect middle ground between "too hot" and "freezing" is an art form. That’s where our cardigan collection steps in. For those in-between days when the sun’s shining but there's still a nip in the air, a short-sleeve cardigan is your best friend. It gives you that extra bit of coverage over tops and T-shirts without making you feel like you're dressed for the Arctic.

If you prefer a classic look, our button-through styles are timeless. Throw one over a floral blouse and pair with a midi skirt for a look that takes you from a morning coffee run to an afternoon in the park with ease. They’re also lightweight enough to stash in your tote bag just in case the clouds roll in.

Texture that talks

There’s something so satisfying about the feel of authentic knitwear. Our women’s knit cardigans feature classic cable designs and ribbed textures that add interest to even the simplest outfit. If you’re heading out for a walk with the dog or braving the weekly shop on a cold morning, our zip-through and hooded cardigans offer a sporty, practical edge. They are brilliant for layering under coats when winter really bites, or wearing as a jacket alternative in the spring. Style them with your trusty jeans and some sturdy boots for an outdoorsy look that’s ready for anything — even if that’s just running to the Post Office in a drizzle.

Longline luxury for every day

Sometimes you just want a bit more coverage, and that is exactly what our ladies’ long cardigans deliver. These longer lengths are incredibly flattering, skimming over your hips to create a sleek silhouette that works for everyone. They’re the perfect partner for slim-leg jeans or straight trousers, balancing out the proportions beautifully.

Whether you’re meeting the family for a Sunday roast or just enjoying a quiet afternoon with a book, a longline knit feels like a hug you can wear. Plus, with handy pockets for your tissues or treats for the dog, they are as practical as they are stylish.

Lilac cardigan women’s styles for every season

At Cotton Traders, our purple cardigans are available in a wide selection of shades and cuts, so there’s something to suit every outfit. For example, a grape short-sleeve cardigan that’s perfect for those warmer days when you just need a light layer over your favourite blouse. Finish the look with a skirt and your go-to trainers for a laid-back look that works for any occasion.

If the temperature drops while you're walking the dog, a dusty purple longline cardigan keeps the chill at bay. Pair it with a thin turtleneck jumper and straight-leg jeans for a cosy, comfortable look. These pieces bridge the gap between seasons perfectly, helping you stay comfortable without the bulk of a heavy coat.

Quality materials in every ladies’ purple cardigan

Every single one of our ladies’ purple cardigans is crafted from soft, reliable materials that feel great against your skin.

Whether you opt for a lavender cotton button-through cardigan for breathable comfort, or choose a lilac pointelle cardigan for delicate texture, we’ve got you covered. These knits are built to last and keep their shape, so they'll be your go-to for years.

Styling your purple cardigan for any occasion

A purple cardigan is surprisingly versatile and works with virtually anything in your wardrobe. For a slightly smarter look when heading to your local for a lunch date, layer a boucle knit over one of our midi dresses.

Or, if you want a more relaxed fit, our V-neck cardigans look brilliant with a tunic and a simple pair of shoes. Whether it's a bold violet shade to brighten a grey morning or a muted lilac for a gentle touch, these cardigans are the colourful partners your wardrobe has been waiting for.
