I have long had hassle getting a fantastic cardigan: They are inevitably way too roomy or way too cropped, and generally just a very little way too outdated-fashioned. But Leorosa, a new knitwear manufacturer launched by Parsons grads Julian Taffel and Paolina Leccese, alterations all that — just in time for the weather conditions to transform. They’re featuring a women’s cardigan with a relaxed bow collar a lamb’s-wool men’s gilet featuring a navy physique with pink, yellow and inexperienced trim and a men’s cardigan with contrasting pockets (camel and burgundy, forest inexperienced and pale pink or burnt orange and royal blue).

While a number of makes promote their very own variations, the set pictured earlier mentioned from the Danish business Haps Nordic, with its palette of subtle autumnal colors and crisp grid motif, is the finest I’ve located. $24, murrayandfinn.com.
