How to layer a cardigan or sweater

A knit layer is the simplest way to carry a summer dress into fall. An open button front cardigan over a midi dress keeps the line long, and it can be draped over the shoulders for a more polished look. A ribbed or textured pullover tucked into a high waist skirt gives warmth without losing shape at the waist.

Choosing colors and textures for the season

Soft neutrals pair with almost anything, while a contrast trim or a pattern adds interest to a simple outfit. Textured knits look richer in cooler light and work well with denim and wide leg pants.

Wear your knit over our midi dresses or with pieces from loungewear for slower days at home.
