New York & Company Open-Front Crochet Mesh Knit Cardigan
New York & Company · Clothing & Accessories > Sweaters & Cardigans
Era / Decade
Late 2010s to early 2020s. The branding font and interior care tag style are characteristic of the modern retail era before the company moved primarily to an e-commerce/department store model.
Material
Likely a blend of Acrylic, Viscose, or Cotton with Lurex/Metallic threads for the shimmer effect. The open-weave mesh is lightweight and synthetic-based for durability.
Condition
Very Good. The garment appears structurally sound with no major sagging. There is a slight risk of snags inherent to the mesh design, but none are visible in the photo.
Demand Level
Moderate. Cardigans from this brand are consistent sellers but common. Demand peaks during spring and summer as a 'breezy' layering piece.

Description
This New York & Company cardigan features a beautiful beige/champagne open-knit mesh design that offers a touch of metallic shimmer. It has an easy open-front silhouette, 3/4 length sleeves, and a draped fit, making it the perfect lightweight layer for spring or summer evenings. The neutral color makes it highly versatile for layering over dresses or camisoles.
Key Features
Lightweight breathable mesh knit, metallic shimmer/lurex detailing, versatile neutral champagne color, flattering open-front drape, and transition-season appeal.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence. The heat-pressed or sewn-in New York & Company neck label is consistent with authentic mall-brand manufacturing. The RN number and care instructions on the side seam tag further verify origin.
Flaws to Note
Potential for hidden snags or pulled threads in the delicate mesh weave. Check the underarms for pilling and the neckline for any stretching.
