We all know that when a stylish fashion item goes viral, stock is bound to go fast, too. After all, everyone is trying to get their hands on the cool new piece that all the ‘It’ girls are wearing, and we’re part of the club. One of the latest viral items to explode all over TikTok is Gap’s Fringe Shawl Cardigan, which has been selling out so fast the retailer had to restock to appease the masses. With inventory bound to deplete (again), we’re looking to other options that deliver the same bohemian-chic vibe. . . at least until the coveted cardigan is fully back!
The easy-going cardigan style features a woven paisley pattern and fringe hem that leans very boho yet versatile. Fashion people are wearing the sweater look this fall with light-wash jeans and an oversized tote, white pants and a sporty baseball cap or mini skirts and suede clogs. We plan to style these stylish cardigans, too. Our favorites feature paisley prints and fringe elements both together and as solo details, so you’ll get the free-spirited vibe no matter which one you choose.
15 Fringe Cardigan Sweater Styles for the Boho Viral Look
1. Our Favorite: We noticed this cozy paisley sweater instantly due to the standout print, tassel hem and fabric belt. That last detail is the reason why the cardigan looks so flattering on practically everyone.
2. Runner-Up: Chocolate brown everything is trending for fall 2026, and this cardigan top lets you in on the look. It’s more subtle than the original, with a smaller paisley pattern and fringe elements solely around the front pockets.
3. Designer-Inspired: Want something a little more heavy-duty? Opt for this faux suede jacket from Blank NYC. The long fringe sleeve accent gives it a Western-like appeal that goes so well with medium-wash jeans and leather boots.
4. Cozy Chic: There are days when we want to dress like fall, but the weather has other seasonably warm plans. That’s where this fringe vest comes in. It’s almost identical to our top pick, sans the long sleeves.
5. No Brainer: Get the same Gap quality as the viral sweater when you grab this relaxed fringe cardigan in the meantime. The crew neckline, ribbed knit and fringe detail balance polish and ease beautifully.

6. Under $20: Hailing from Gap’s sister brand, this fringe-hemmed poncho is one to layer over a long-sleeved top, sweater dress and the like. It ditches the paisley print for another popular fall pattern: herringbone.
7. Playful Pattern: Did you just do a double-take? Yeah, we get that. This belted cardigan on Anthropologie is in the same ballpark as the O.G., just with a bandana pattern and a sharper square hem. Oddly enough, it’s even more affordable with a hidden 20% off discount.
8. Jet-Setter Style: Spoiler alert, your go-to travel hoodie is making you look all kinds of frumpy, and this oversized sweater style is the luxe solution. The cozy wool-blend pick has a cape-inspired front and fringed edging that’ll put you right in first-class territory.
9. Everyday Ease: You’ll notice that Gap’s iconic cardigan is only available in traditional dark fall hues, so if you’re in the market for a neutral option, you found it. This relaxed Anthro cardigan features the teardrop motif and tasseled hem we love, in a buttery-yellow hue (a lesser-known trend this season).
10. Deal Alert: Look like the ultimate rich mom when you don this shawl cardigan over a blouse and trousers for work or a lacy maxi dress for date night. The Abercrombie find just looks that luxe. The best part? It’s on sale.
11. Expensive-Looking: An easy way to take your basics up a notch is with a bold layering staple, like this embroidered fringe shawl. It easily slips over tanks, T-shirts and knit tops for an eye-catching appeal your outfit was clearly missing.
12. Petite-Friendly: Fall dressing for gals under 5’3″ can be hard when everything swallows you whole. This cropped fringed sweater is the exception, cutting off right at the waist to define your shape.
13. Pretty Pick: Now, if you want to make a dramatic entrance, go with this long-line cardigan top that hugs your body at the torso before extending out below the knees. The statement fringe takes the bohemian look into the ‘It’-girl tier.
14. Farmers’ Market Chic: Checking out local vendors may require you to brave the fall elements — but no worries, this Levi’s jacket has you covered. It’s more functional than anything, with durable materials and multiple pockets. Add in the fringe, and you’ve got yourself a standout choice.
15. Last But Not Least: Go full-on cowgirl with this Lucky Brand cardigan that looks like it belongs in an L.A. boutique. Everything from the large geometric pattern to the simple shawl neckline gives it rustic vibes.
