FAQs

What materials is the AMI Paris Ami De Coeur Cardigan made from?

The cardigan is crafted from a luxurious blend of Organic Cotton and Merino Wool, offering both comfort and warmth.

How should I wash this cardigan?

This cardigan requires delicate care. It must be hand washed only, using cool water and a mild, wool-specific detergent. Avoid machine washing, twisting, or wringing, and always dry flat.

Is this cardigan suitable for all seasons?

Info needed: While the merino wool component makes it ideal for cooler temperatures, the organic cotton blend allows for comfortable layering in transitional seasons like spring and autumn. It might be too warm for peak summer months.

What does 'Ami De Coeur' refer to?

'Ami De Coeur' is the iconic signature motif of AMI Paris, featuring a stylized heart with the letter 'A' integrated. It represents friendship and the brand's core values.

Can I iron this cardigan?

It is generally recommended to avoid ironing wool and delicate blends. If absolutely necessary, use the lowest heat setting on your iron, place a damp cloth between the iron and the cardigan, and avoid direct contact.

How should I store the cardigan to maintain its quality?

To prevent stretching and maintain its shape, always fold the cardigan neatly instead of hanging it. Store it in a cool, dry place, ideally in a drawer or on a shelf, away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Cardigan feels slightly itchy

Merino wool is generally soft, but if you have sensitive skin, try wearing a thin long-sleeved t-shirt or base layer underneath. Ensure you are using a lanolin-rich wool detergent during washing to maintain fiber softness.

Cardigan is pilling (small balls of fiber on the surface)

Pilling can occur with natural fibers due to friction. Gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or a specialized sweater comb. To minimize pilling, avoid excessive rubbing against rough surfaces and consider turning the cardigan inside out when washing.

Cardigan has lost its shape after washing

This often happens from improper drying. Always dry flat on a clean towel or drying rack. Gently reshape the cardigan to its original dimensions while it is damp, ensuring sleeves and body are correctly aligned before drying.

Fading or dullness in colour

Always use cool water for hand washing and avoid harsh detergents. Direct exposure to strong sunlight for prolonged periods during drying can also cause fading. Dry indoors or in shaded areas.

Initial Setup Upon receiving your cardigan, gently unfold it and allow it to air out if needed. There's no complex setup; simply try it on to ensure the desired fit and drape. ### Compatibility The black colourway ensures high compatibility with almost any item in your wardrobe. It pairs well with neutral tones for a minimalist look or can ground more vibrant colours. Its classic silhouette complements various body types and styles, from casual to smart-casual. ### Care The longevity and appearance of your AMI Paris Ami De Coeur Cardigan depend heavily on proper care. Hand wash only is crucial due to the delicate organic cotton and merino wool blend. 1. Preparation: Turn the cardigan inside out. Fill a basin with cool water and add a small amount of wool-specific or delicate detergent. 2. Washing: Submerge the cardigan and gently squeeze the water through the fabric. Avoid rubbing, twisting, or stretching. Let it soak for no more than 10-15 minutes. 3. Rinsing: Drain the soapy water and refill with clean, cool water. Gently rinse until all detergent is removed. 4. Drying: Do not wring. Gently press excess water out by rolling the cardigan in a clean towel. Lay the cardigan flat on a clean, dry surface, away from direct sunlight or heat, to air dry. This prevents stretching and maintains its shape. 5. Storage: Fold the cardigan neatly rather than hanging it, as hanging can cause stretching, especially in the shoulders. Store in a cool, dry place.
