Most sweaters decide where the neckline sits before you put them on. This one leaves it open. Pulled straight it reads as a wide boat neck; let it settle and a small notch opens at the center front.
The sleeves are cut dolman - wide through the upper arm, tapering into a narrow cuff - so the whole top falls from the shoulder rather than hanging off a seam. A single seam runs down the center front, the only structural line in the piece and the reason the drape behaves the way it does. The knit is fine and fluid, closer to jersey than to a heavy winter sweater.
With tailored trousers it looks considered. With almost nothing it still looks considered. That is the whole trick.
