About Us

SVEN EBERLE — cardigans for layering and short skirts cut to move in.

We work out of Leverkusen, between the Rhine and the Bergisches Land, and the shop is built on two things that get worn together: a cardigan thrown over everything, and a short skirt or skort that stays where it is put. Eight pieces, four of each, chosen for how they behave on a walk to the tram rather than how they look in a photograph.

What we sell

Our product type is clothing, and the range is deliberately narrow:

Jacquard, striped wool-blend and embroidered button-down cardigans
Pointelle and floral knit cardigans in peach and cream
High-waisted mini skorts with a side bow or a bubble hem
A faux-suede embroidered skort and a belted faux-suede mini skirt

How the range gets chosen

A skirt is tested by sitting down and standing up in it, and a cardigan by whether the placket still lies flat after a wash. Pieces that ride up, twist at the side seam or pill in the first month are dropped; the rest stay listed for as long as we can keep the stock.

What we are not

We are not a reseller working from a supplier's catalogue. Cardigans and skirts are bought in short runs, held here and measured flat by hand, and where we have not measured a garment we do not print a number for it.

Orders and delivery

Packing takes 1-3 business days and the carrier estimate is 15 business days. Postage is worked out by distance at checkout; it is not a flat rate and there is no charge added after the order is placed.

Getting in touch

Email or telephone, Monday to Friday. For a skirt that sits shorter than the photograph suggested, tell us the size you ordered and the length you expected, and we will compare it with the same size here.
