The MAXCT short-sleeve long cardigan is open at the front and has two patch pockets. The current gallery shows the Green version over a black dress and the Khaki version over a white long-sleeve top and jeans. Those two photographs answer a useful question: do you want the cardigan to frame a dress, or to leave the sleeves of an underlayer visible? Use the photos for that visual decision, then check the listed garment measurements before choosing S–XL.

Start with the layer you will actually wear

With a dress, look at the cardigan’s open front and where its two front panels end beside the dress hem. A long cardigan can visually extend below a shorter dress or stop above a longer one; the photographs show only the model’s outfits, not the length of a dress you own. Lay your dress flat and measure from a consistent shoulder point to its hem. Then compare that number with the cardigan length in the chart below, while remembering that the listing does not define its length-measurement points. If the two lengths are close, ask for the measurement method before treating the comparison as exact.

The Khaki gallery photo demonstrates a different arrangement: a white long-sleeve top extends below the cardigan’s short sleeves. If you intend to wear a long-sleeve base layer, decide whether that visible sleeve contrast is part of the look you want. If you prefer bare forearms, inspect the Green photo instead. Neither photo establishes how much room the sleeve opening gives every wearer, and the listing supplies no sleeve-opening circumference.

Check bust and hem together

The source labels the following as product measurements in inches. It calls the cardigan non-stretch, but gives no test or measurement method for that label. Compare the listed bust and hem with a similar open-front cardigan that already fits you, rather than using the S–XL letters as body measurements.

For example, M to L adds 2.0 inches to the listed bust and 2.0 inches to the hem, but only 0.7 inch to the length. S to XL adds 7.1 inches at the bust and 7.0 inches at the hem, while length rises 2.3 inches. If the cardigan will remain open, both bust and hem still affect how the front panels sit around your base layer; a size chosen only for length may add much more width than you expect. Confirm whether “bust” and “hem width” are full circumferences or flat measurements with MAXCT if your decision depends on a precise ease calculation. The garment-versus-body measurements guide explains why those two conventions matter.

Choose the color photo, then verify care

The selectable colors are Green and Khaki, with S, M, L and XL listed for each. The Green photo shows a darker cardigan over a black dress; the Khaki photo shows a lighter cardigan over white and denim. Use the gallery thumbnails to inspect both because changing the color selector does not itself prove how a shade will appear on your screen or in another light. The listing specifies 100% acrylic and machine or hand washing. It does not give a water temperature, drying method or care-label image. Before the first wash, follow the physical item’s label; the knitwear care guide offers general steps for handling an unknown drying instruction.

Choose by your planned underlayer and the amount of front coverage you want. Use the bust, hem and length columns together, and confirm any undefined measurement that falls close to your own reference cardigan.
