cowl neck

Loose folded neckline

A cowl neck is a draped, loose-fitting neckline on a sweater or dress that falls in soft folds, resembling a monk's hood.

The fabric gathers at the collarbone rather than lying flat: She wore a cowl neck sweater in charcoal gray.

The style appears in both casual knitwear and elegant evening wear.
