A turtleneck is one of those wardrobe pieces that earns its keep quietly. It layers under everything, works with almost any bottom, and has a way of making even the simplest outfit look more considered. This ribbed cotton version by Rue Paris does all of that with a clean, minimalist silhouette that doesn't overcomplicate things. The high neck frames the face, the ribbed texture adds visual depth, and the cotton construction keeps it breathable and comfortable for all-day wear.
Available in Beige and Green, in sizes S/M and L/XL (EU sizing). The Beige is the more neutral of the two — a natural pairing with virtually any color in a wardrobe. The Green is a softer, more fashion-forward option that works particularly well with earth tones and neutrals. The ribbed fabric has natural stretch and recovers well after washing, and the cotton softens with each wash, making it more comfortable the longer you own it. Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle; lay flat to dry.
This is the sweater you reach for on a cold morning when you want to look put-together without putting in much effort.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this run true to EU sizing?
Yes — S/M fits EU S and M, and L/XL fits EU L and XL. If you prefer a slightly looser fit or plan to layer over a shirt, sizing up is recommended.
Will the ribbed fabric lose its shape after washing?
The ribbed cotton recovers well after washing — machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and lay flat to dry to preserve the structure and prevent stretching.
Can this be worn as a base layer under a blazer or coat?
Yes — the slim, body-skimming fit is specifically designed to layer cleanly under outerwear without adding bulk or bunching at the shoulders.
