Difference between cardigan and alpaca jacket

Before presenting our selection, we felt it was important to stop by the booth to explain the difference between these two clothes. Many of us still confuse them.

The jacket

With or without sleeves, it usually ends at the waist (there are long alpaca jackets). Made in the 17th century, it was called a "leotard". At that time, it referred to the jacket worn by the men of the imperial court. This vintage jacket was most likely made of cotton or nylon.

Jackets were an essential part of a man’s wardrobe until the Second World War, and can be found in the famous 3-piece wardrobe. At the time, it was mandatory to hide the shirt, which was considered as underwear.

Then over time and fashion, the jacket became a feminine garment and now it’s a flagship fashion piece to have in a wardrobe. 

Cardigan 

It is a small knit, without collar, buttoned or zipped front. It can be thin or thick, but the terminology is always the same. Cardigans were originally military men’s clothing.

In the 19th century, an English story (Lord Cardigan) had the idea of dividing the sweater in half to make it more comfortable. The number of fans of the military cardigan, war hero known for his exploits in Crimea, is increasing. This is how clothes were sold in the 1860s. Originally a cardigan for men, it has now become a staple of the women’s wardrobe.
