ARMEDANGELS ribbed sweater VERA PETROL with zip made of organic cotton
A kind of quarter-zip sweater for women, but finer, slimmer and very suitable for layering: that is the ARMEDANGELS VERA. This rib-knit sweater is made of 100% organic cotton and has a high collar with a half-zip. When zipped up, it looks like a modern turtleneck; with the zip slightly open, it gains a more relaxed quarter-zip look.
The PETROL color is a deep blue-green shade that combines beautifully with denim, dark blue, black, gray, brown, and natural tones. Enough color to be interesting, but calm enough to be worn very often.
Why you will want the VERA
- 100% organic cotton

- Beautiful as a layer and worn on its own
A quarter-zip sweater with a feminine fit
In terms of its fine rib structure, VERA resembles the popular ALAANIA, but with an extra detail: a long zip at the neck. This allows you to easily adjust the look. Wear the collar high and closed when you want a little extra warmth, or open the zip for a more relaxed appearance.
The vertical rib and fitted cut give the sweater a calm, elongated silhouette. Because of the fine knit, it fits easily under a blazer, cardigan, or jacket without feeling bulky. It also has plenty of appeal worn solo with jeans, trousers, or a skirt. A basic, but definitely not a boring one.
Fit and sizing advice
The ARMEDANGELS VERA runs relatively narrow and is distinctly form-fitting. If you like a snug ribbed sweater, choose your usual size. If you are between sizes, want a bit more room to move, or prefer not to wear fitted clothing too tightly, choose the larger size.
Are you looking for a loose-fitting, thick quarter-zip sweater? Then VERA is probably not the right model for you. This is a fine, feminine ribbed sweater that looks best because of its fitted cut.
Organic cotton and washing advice
VERA is made of 100% organic cotton. The material feels soft and breathable and is a pleasant alternative if you find wool too warm or itchy. The sweater provides a nice layer of warmth but is not a heavy winter sweater.
Close the zipper before washing and wash the sweater inside out at a low temperature with similar colors. Use a small amount of detergent and preferably do not tumble dry. After washing, gently pull the sweater into shape and let it dry flat or well-supported. This keeps the rib structure and fit looking their best.
