Jorge Molina designs an original and versatile ruby red poncho with wide horizontal pleats. When worn with the v-neck aperture on the back, the piece softly drapes off the shoulders, just like a shawl. Knitted with a fine stitch, Molina selects baby alpaca wool for his design for its warm soft textures. This is because it comes from the season's first shear.

"Smaller than anticipated"
I bought this for my mum who was at the time a fairly substantial lady - 220 pounds. I didnt feel that this was large enough or heavy enough to really do her any good. I kept it nonetheless. I may find a reason to wear it myself. The quality is good. I have no complaints about that. That is why I kept it for possible future use.
Best Uses
- A light wrap for breezy late Spring/early Fall and Summer nights

"Blue Jean Princess"
I can not get over the light weight of this baby alpaca poncho. The pattern on sleeve and cowl is subtle and lovely. The blue is deep and rich. Truly a work of art that I will wear and value like a royal Incan treasure. Thank you, Jorge Molina! Wearing this makes me feel like a Blue Jean Princess! Of course I will not relegate it to blue jeans only ; )

"Love this poncho"
This poncho is so unique and lovely. The foldover neckline drapes beautifully and the contrast of the red design against the black is just striking. The fabric is soft and this poncho is well made. I have another expensive Italian black cashmere poncho which I love but this Novica poncho has quickly become my favorite. I know I will enjoy wearing this for many years to come and am sure I will receive many compliments. My husband rarely compliments clothes I buy but he had glowing compliments on this poncho which is definitely high praise from him.
