About Knitwear

Women’s knitwear is how a tailored wardrobe becomes wearable in real temperature. Women’s sweaters, in our sense, are not weekend hoodies. They are fine merino crews, a silk-blend turtleneck, cardigans that replace a jacket, a polo that replaces a shirt, and a two-piece knit that can pretend to be a dress. The gauge is the design decision: thin enough for the office, warm enough for the walk.

Bordeaux, camel, cream, navy, black, wine, oatmeal, ivory — the knit palette is the same as the tailoring palette on purpose. A new sweater should slide under the espresso blazer and over the stone trouser without introducing a third story. That is how knitwear supports a capsule instead of fighting it.

The Camel Merino Crew is the essential. It does the work of a tee with the manners of a sweater. The black turtleneck is the second skin under jackets and column dresses. The oatmeal cardigan is the layer that lives on a chair and still looks like an outfit when you stand up. The Wine Merino Knit is the color note — one deep red in a week of neutrals is usually enough.

We prefer natural fibers because they do the climate work that polyester cannot. Merino breathes. Silk-blend sits smooth. Wool-cashmere in the cardigan is the softness you notice at the wrist. These are sweaters you will still want in three winters, which is the only sustainability claim we are comfortable making: buy fewer, keep them.

If you already own our shirts, add one crew and one layering knit before you add another blouse. The ratio in a French-leaning work wardrobe is often two jackets, three knits, two shirts. Knitwear is what makes that math feel abundant.

Care is part of the product. Fine merino pills less if you rest it a day between wears and use a gentle comb, not a razor, on the first pills. Hang cardigans; fold crews. A women’s sweater that is stored correctly will outlast the trend cycle that tried to replace it.

Questions

FAQ

Can I wear these sweaters under a blazer?

Yes. Fine merino and silk-blend styles are gauged to sit under tailoring without bulk. Size up in the cardigan if you want it over a shirt and a light knit.

How do I wash merino?

Cool hand wash or a wool cycle, then dry flat. Fine knits last for years if they are not tumble-dried and not hung by the shoulder when wet.

Is the ivory knit set sold as separates?

It ships as a set. Once you own it, wear the top with trousers and the skirt with a tucked shirt — that is how a set earns its price.
