Consisting of statement cat sweaters and versatile basics, the Julian Zigerli Fall/Winter 2017 collection is appropriately named 'Me, My Cat, And I.' Targeting pet owners with a love of streetwear, the designer creates an eclectic range which includes this bold piece -- a 'Cat Boss' sweater that is constructed using a cozy, jacquard knit.
This cat-adorned crewneck is one of the collection's more subdued pieces, yet promises to make a statement when worn. The piece features a greyscale knit texture, with a large cat portrait on its front panel.
Fusing a relaxed and modern silhouette with a graphic detail, this statement top will appeal to authenticity-seeking Millennials who wish to share their love of cats with the world.
