KBB by KAHLANA delivers timeless, elevated essentials that blend everyday wardrobe staples with subtle, luxe style.
Model is wearing a size 1X and is 5'9"
Comfort, styled with intention. The Slouchy Cardigan is crafted from an ultra-soft heavyweight jacquard and features a relaxed, oversized fit. A bold, yet versatile print and contrasting placket add a pop of unexpected color to this cozy essential. Equal parts laid-back and statement-making, toss on open over a tee to create a put-together layer, or button up to wear on its own and let the details take center stage.
Howard University grad turned InStyle Beauty editor turned fashion expert, Kahlana Barfield Brown, brings her personal style and decades of inspiration to her debut collection, KBB by KAHLANA. This Black-owned brand redefines accessible luxury through elevated essentials that offer thoughtful contrast: soft vs. structured, understated vs. statement-making, designed for the ever-evolving woman.
I'm a HUGE fan of Kahlana and her style (and we're both HU grads)!!! So of course it was a no-brainer that I had to get something from her line - I had to have a piece of history! This cardigan is SO cute!! I couldn't decide between the animal print or the camo. I decided to go with the camo because I love the orange pop of color (and being a fan of animal print, I wanted to do something different). The material is soft, appears to be quality and has some weight to it; the camo design is defined which makes it really pop (if that makes sense). Based on the description that it was oversized, I sized down to a medium (large is my usual size) and it just fits - not too big and not too snug. It's a very versatile piece and I can't wait to wear it!!! So happy I was able to score it, if it's restocked I highly recommend that you grab yourself one!

Unfortunately the leopard print cardigan is itchy and the color is not as vibrant in person. So disappointed.

I love this sweater, however, I’ll need to wait for someone to return/exchange their S or XS (fingers crossed). I ordered my regular size M and I feel like a football player without the padding underneath! Ha ha

This is the item I wanted most from KBB and it did NOT disappoint! This is a high quality sweater! I’m normally an XS but was only able to get a medium in stock locally, so that’s what I got. I’m rocking it oversized/off the shoulder and it still looks great! The contrast is a cool touch but the print itself looks way more expensive than you’d expect (camo can look cheap if not done authentically). Thank you KBB - love all my new pieces!!!!

I ordered both the leopard and camo sweater. The material for both are drastically different. The leopard material is more itchy and cheap than the camo one. Both run incredibly huge. I ordered my true size expecting it to be oversized but it’s insanely big. Would have to size down to at least an XS to make it look somewhat cute

Love this cardigan. It is stylish and cozy. I was able to order online for pickup in store after it was snatched out of my online order. A medium would’ve been a better fit though because it is oversized. Will keep the large but hoping a medium gets restocked.

I snagged the last XS in-store during a random target run and it fit perfectly (still oversized!) - so glad I missed the cardigans online because I would’ve purchased the wrong size. I usually wear a L in tees (36DDD bust, dress size 10) and would’ve sized down to a M for this based on sweater purchases from Kahlana’s previous Future Collective drops. In summary, I anticipate returns on this due to the extreme oversizing, so if you were unable to get one on drop day or shortly after, I encourage you to turn on in-stock notifications for this item. Good luck!

I see why it sold out online in 7 minutes. It's gorgeous & I love the sizing. I will definitely wear it a little off the shoulders.

This sweater is really great, but very oversized. I'm 5'4" 139 lbs and wear size M. The XS worked for me. Sleeves are pretty long and wide and looks great when they are rolled up or pushed up. Still, I love the color and pattern and looking forward to wearing it.
