About

A ballet-style wrap cardigan in oat, knit in a tuck stitch from 100% organic cotton. The fit is oversized and a little cropped, with narrow ties to wear it loose or cinched at the waist. Kowtow's cotton is GOTS certified and the cardigan has no synthetic yarn or trims.

Materials

100% Fairtrade organic cotton. Kowtow says the whole garment is plastic-free, down to the cotton thread and labels.

What it is made of

The Composure Cardigan is made entirely of organic cotton. Organic cotton is grown without synthetic pesticides, a soft, breathable everyday plant fiber. That composition is what Toxome scores, and it earns 92 out of 100 on the fiber scale, where 100 is cleanest. This piece carries GOTS, which covers how the fiber was grown and processed, not just what it is.

FAQ

What is the Composure Cardigan made of?

It is 100% organic cotton.

Is organic cotton safe to wear?

Organic cotton is grown without synthetic pesticides, a soft, breathable everyday plant fiber. Toxome rates every fiber on what it does to the body of the person wearing it, and publishes the reasoning rather than a badge. The score covers the fiber, not the dyes and finishes a mill adds later.

How does Toxome score clothing?

Toxome reads each garment's fiber composition and scores it on what that fiber does to your body, not on a brand's sustainability marketing. A higher score means a cleaner fiber. Composition is taken from what the brand publishes, so the score reflects the label rather than our opinion of it.
