{"product_id":"the-ise-shrine-lantern-sleeve-sweater","title":"The Ise Shrine | Japanese-Inspired Lantern Sleeve Knit Sweater","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product-narrative\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome Silhouettes Arrive Quietly and Never Leave. The lantern sleeve — voluminous through the forearm, gathered at the cuff — traces its lineage through Ming dynasty court dress, Edwardian tea gowns, and the architectural knitwear of Issey Miyake's 1980s collections. It communicates volume without weight, presence without aggression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ise Shrine Sweater — named for Japan's most sacred Shinto complex, where architecture and nature coexist in deliberate balance — applies the lantern sleeve to a modern lightweight knit. The body is a fine-gauge acrylic-viscose blend (55\/45) with a micro-rib texture that catches light differently depending on the angle of the knit. The sleeves balloon gracefully from the elbow, then gather into a narrow 2×2 rib cuff that creates the signature lantern profile. The body is cut straight — not boxy, not fitted — falling to the hip with side slits that release the hem for easy drape over trousers and skirts alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe construction rewards layering. The crew neck is finished with a 3cm rib band that holds its shape through a full day of wear — no bacon-collar stretching by 4pm. The shoulder is a set-in sleeve, not a drop-shoulder, which means the volume stays below the elbow where it creates visual interest without widening the upper body. And the yarn is pre-dyed, not piece-dyed, so the colour is consistent from the inside of the knit to the surface — no white core showing through at the seams.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eVolume is a language. The lantern sleeve speaks it fluently.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-features\" style=\"margin-top: 25px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"list-style: none; padding: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 6px 0;\"\u003e✦ 55\/45 acrylic-viscose fine-gauge knit — micro-rib texture with directional light play\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 6px 0;\"\u003e✦ Signature lantern sleeve — balloons from elbow, gathers at narrow 2×2 rib cuff\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 6px 0;\"\u003e✦ Crew neck with 3cm rib band — shape retention through full-day wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 6px 0;\"\u003e✦ Set-in shoulder construction — volume stays below elbow, upper body stays clean\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 6px 0;\"\u003e✦ Straight body cut with side slits at hem — easy drape, no bunching when tucked\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 6px 0;\"\u003e✦ Pre-dyed yarn — colour-consistent from core to surface, no white seam exposure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 6px 0;\"\u003e✦ Hip-length body — approximately 58-62cm from shoulder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-specs\" style=\"margin-top: 25px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"list-style: none; padding: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 6px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e 55% acrylic, 45% viscose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 6px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKnit Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fine-gauge, micro-rib texture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 6px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSleeve Style:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lantern sleeve, gathered rib cuff\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 6px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeckline:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crew neck with 3cm rib band\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 6px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShoulder:\u003c\/strong\u003e Set-in sleeve (not drop-shoulder)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 6px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Straight cut, side slits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 6px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hip-length, approximately 58-62cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 6px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDye Method:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pre-dyed yarn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 6px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand wash cold or machine wash delicate, lay flat to dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-applications\" style=\"margin-top: 25px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere It Excels\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ise Shrine is a statement piece that works hardest in minimalist wardrobes. Pair it with slim trousers or a pencil skirt to let the lantern sleeves do the visual work. The hip-length body and side slits make it tuck-friendly — front-tuck into high-waisted denim for a casual architectural look, or wear untucked over wide-leg trousers for a balanced proportion. The fine-gauge knit is seasonless: wear alone in spring and autumn, layer under a blazer or cropped jacket in winter. The lantern sleeve fits comfortably under most coat sleeves thanks to the narrow cuff — the volume compresses without resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-faq\" style=\"margin-top: 25px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Do the lantern sleeves get in the way during daily activities?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The volume is concentrated between the elbow and wrist — it does not interfere with typing, driving, eating, or carrying items. The narrow cuff keeps the sleeve end anchored at the wrist, so it does not drag or dip into things. For tasks requiring rolled-up sleeves, the volume pushes up easily and stays above the elbow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is the knit see-through or does it require a camisole?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The micro-rib texture and fine-gauge knit provide full opacity in darker colours. In the lightest colour options (cream, ivory), a nude-tone undergarment is recommended for complete coverage, though the knit itself is not sheer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How does the acrylic-viscose blend feel compared to wool or cotton?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The viscose component gives the knit a cool, smooth hand-feel — closer to a high-quality cotton-modal blend than to acrylic alone. The acrylic provides shape memory and colour fastness. It does not have the warmth or itch factor of wool, making it ideal for transitional seasons and indoor wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Will the lantern sleeves lose their shape after washing?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The 2×2 rib cuff and the knit structure are designed to spring back after stretching. Lay the sweater flat to dry — never hang a knit sweater, as the weight of wet fabric will distort the shoulder and sleeve shape. After 20+ wash cycles following this care method, sleeve shape retention was rated excellent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can this be dressed up for evening or is it strictly casual?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The architectural sleeve and clean crew neck make it evening-appropriate when styled intentionally. In black or charcoal, paired with a silk slip skirt, heeled boots, and a statement necklace, the Ise Shrine reads as contemporary cocktail attire — the kind of look that suggests you understood the assignment better than everyone in sequins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-gallery\" style=\"margin-top: 30px; display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; gap: 10px; justify-content: center;\"\u003e\n  \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0503\/6412\/1244\/products\/product-image-1685101603.jpg?v=1622621368\" style=\"max-width: 300px; width: 100%; border-radius: 4px;\" alt=\"Product image 1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@type\": \"Product\",\n  \"name\": \"The Ise Shrine | Japanese-Inspired Lantern Sleeve Knit Sweater\",\n  \"description\": \"Premium knitwear — The Ise Shrine | Japanese-Inspired Lantern Sleeve Knit Sweater.
