Orlon is an acrylic fibre with a wool-like feel, but it is lighter and far less itchy against the skin. An Orlon sweater keeps you comfortably warm on cold days, is easy to wash and holds its shape well over time.

Which styles are popular?

Turtleneck: extra warmth around the neck and sits neatly under a hijab. Crew neck: simple and easy to layer over a shirt. Longer cuts: cover the hips for a more modest look.

How do I style an Orlon sweater?

Wear it with wide-leg trousers or a maxi skirt and add a coat or cardigan on colder days. A hijab in a neutral shade lets the colour of the sweater stand out. Find more styles in our knitted sweater collection.
