Why Gold Is Rare
Gold rank is rare becauseare rare.
Most cardigans are designed for a 5′7″ fit model and scaled down. That's not petite sizing — that's wishful thinking.
We use AI to score every piece before it reaches you. Gold means it passed every check. Buy it. Wear it. Done.
3 in 10
Out of every 10 cardigans we evaluate, fewer than 3 earn a Gold score.
4 criteria
Every Gold piece passes shoulder placement, sleeve length, torso ratio, and drape checks.
5′4″ & under
Every score is calculated specifically for petite frames — not scaled from standard sizing.
How We Score
What earns aGold score?
Our AI checks four criteria on every piece. All four must pass for a Gold score. There's no partial credit.
01
Shoulder seam placement
Must sit at the natural shoulder point — not sliding off or pulling inward.
02
Sleeve length at the wrist
Ends cleanly at the wrist bone for a frame under 5′4″ — without rolling or bunching.
03
Torso-to-hem ratio
Body length hits at the hip — proportioned for a shorter torso, not scaled from a standard pattern.
04
Drape on a petite frame
How the piece actually falls — no overwhelming volume, no boxy silhouette swamping a smaller frame.
