The Idea Of A Corduroy Sweater
This did not come to me in a vision but in an online description of what a certain jazz pianist (female) happened to be wearing (over a plain white blouse) while giving a performance.
Today, at this moment, because it's warm, I'm wearing a cotton cable-knit sweater over a white Brooks shirt. The idea of a corduroy sweater has a certain appeal - but, for a male, does such an item exist? If not, why not? If one can wear a corduroy shirt (popover or otherwise) why not a v-neck sweater? Moss green, navy, possibly mustard. Even black.
Opinions?

Re: The Idea Of A Corduroy Sweater
Such a thing exists! In crew form at least. A.P.C do them. Only 56% cotton though. So calling it corduroy as I understand it is debatable.
Like denim or moleskin, I can’t see how such a thing can work as a jumper without having a huge amount of stretch added. Unless it was some big and baggy pseudo boho artist style thing?
I feel constricted enough in a light cotton pop/pullover

Re: The Idea Of A Corduroy Sweater
Spendthrift, good point. I have not seen a photograph of the lady in question so have no idea of how it worked for her.
