A bold red wool sweater featuring an intarsia-knitted tiger face design dominating the front panel. The tiger motif displays fierce yellow and black striping with white fangs and red mouth details. Decorative white floral elements appear on the sleeves alongside geometric patterns. The sweater has a high ribbed turtleneck collar and ribbed cuffs at the wrists and hem. The construction shows hand-knitted intarsia colorwork technique creating the pictorial design. The oversized silhouette with dropped shoulders reflects 1980s fashion proportions. White decorative scrollwork borders the bottom hem, creating a folk art aesthetic that bridges high fashion knitwear with novelty sweater traditions of the decade.
