Vintage Ami Knits Black Red White Cardigan Preppy Collegiate 80s Vintage M

This vintage Ami Knits cardigan feels straight out of an Ivy League wardrobe — sharp, structured, and timelessly Preppycore. The black knit base, accented with bold red and white geometric stripes, gives it that confident collegiate energy that defined late 80s fashion. The argyle-inspired trim and sleek silhouette make it an instant statement piece, whether worn buttoned up with trousers or casually over denim. It’s giving vintage professor meets downtown prep revival. Made in the U.S.A. from a soft acrylic knit, this cardigan holds its shape beautifully while offering just the right amount of stretch for comfort. The ribbed collar and hem are accented with crisp red and white detailing, finished with black faceted buttons that add a polished touch. It’s lightweight yet warm — perfect for layering over crisp shirts or pairing with pleated skirts for a full throwback collegiate vibe. The cropped fit and graphic contrast give it that wearable “preppy with an edge” look modern stylists love. An ideal pick for lovers of 80s fashion, Preppycore, or the retro Americana aesthetic. Model is 5'5", 130 lbs, 30D, with a 27" waist. It’s lightly worn; just like to disclose it is preowned/preloved. Note sweater has been cut to crop, mark on lower left front.
