What item of clothing was Palmer known for popularizing?
Fedora
Cardigan
Polo Shirt
Khakis
Answer
The cardigan, a knitted sweater or jacket, often buttoned down the front, gained popularity thanks to the seventh Earl of Cardigan, James Thomas Brudenell. During the Crimean War, he led the Charge of the Light Brigade, famously wearing a knitted waistcoat which later inspired the garment to be named after him. The comfortable, practical design of the cardigan, made it well-suited for both military and civilian use.
