Women’s short-sleeved jumpers
A short-sleeved jumper is one of the most versatile pieces in knitwear. It feels lighter than a long-sleeved style, but more refined than a T-shirt – perfect for warmer days, transitional weather and layering in winter. From sleeveless basics to short sleeves and elegant elbow-length designs, our collection offers endless ways to add knitwear to your wardrobe all year round.
Materials for every season
These jumpers are available in fabrics that adapt to every occasion. Cotton jumpers and viscose blends are ideal for spring and summer, light on the skin and easy to wear from day to night. For cooler days, cashmere and virgin wool jumpers bring warmth and softness, proving that short sleeves can be just as luxurious as winter knits. Fine knit styles are especially popular – elegant enough for the office, yet comfortable for everyday wear.
Fits, shapes and details
Our range covers everything from slim, figure-hugging shapes to relaxed cuts with modern appeal. You’ll find rib knits, ajour patterns and smooth plain knits, along with statement pieces that use shimmering yarns, sequins or bold prints. Whether you prefer understated basics or eye-catching details, there’s a short-sleeved jumper to suit your mood. The variety continues with the neckline:
The classic crew neck is timeless and versatile – a style that always works.
A V-neck feels feminine and pairs beautifully with delicate jewellery or layered under blazers and jackets.
A short-sleeved roll neck jumper adds elegance to office looks and works perfectly under a blazer or combined with wide tailored trousers.
A waterfall neckline drapes softly and fluidly, creating a feminine effect.
The boat neckline subtly highlights the shoulders and gives a modern, elegant touch.
At MADELEINE you’ll find the right style for every occasion – from simple basics to striking fashion pieces.
Layering and twinset options
Short-sleeved jumpers aren’t just for summer – they layer beautifully under a blazer or cardigan in winter without feeling bulky. Certain jumpers can be paired with a matching cardigan in the same knit or design, giving you the option of creating a timeless twinset look whenever you want a more coordinated outfit.
What kinds of sleeves are available?
The collection includes sleeveless designs, classic short sleeves and half-sleeves that finish at the elbow.
Which materials are best?
For summer, choose breathable cotton or viscose blends. For cooler months, cashmere, wool and virgin wool provide warmth and a touch of luxury. Fine knits are a versatile option for smart looks.
How can I style a short-sleeved jumper?
Pair a fitted jumper with tailored trousers or a pencil skirt for the office, choose a printed or sequinned style for evenings, or wear a sleeveless knit as a colourful basic under a blazer or cardigan.
