apt bolero is designed to make you feel like yourself and embrace your female figure. The shape and expression are meant to be inclusive of the many beautiful and different body types and therefore also encourage you to wear it exactly in the way that you feel most comfortable with.

apt bolero can be used in several ways - even around the neck as a scarf. It is a design that can be used all year round. Either as an extra layer in winter or as a light addition in summer. It is suitable for many different occasions, seasons and events, hence the name ap t.

A bolero consists of two sleeves and a middle piece. apt bolero's center piece is long, so long that it can cross over the chest or back. With the cross in front, a bare piece is left on the upper back. Cross apt bolero at the back, it sits close in front, like a top.

The nubbed surface is created by knitting in a simple structure and with the added movement space on the sleeves, it gives easier baggy sleeves and a tight fit across the body.
