Knitwear Review. New York and London Fashion Week. The Gift Of Knitting.Happy Sunday! Today I continue my knitwear review series that have already become a tradition here - every season the designers are showing their collections in the course of the main 4 fashion weeks - New York, London, Milan and Paris. I try to look at knitwear from the different points of view and the fashion weeks are a great chance to browse through the tendencies and techniques.New York and London have presented the mix of classic, innovative and exaggerated knitwear ideas.Pringle Of Scotland, known for its knitwear, showed monochrome neutral total knitwear looks and presented variations of their signature classic print.Knitwear Review. New York and London Fashion Week. The Gift Of Knitting.Colorwork was presented in different variations - Victoria Beckham, Fashion East and Eckhaus Latta used intarsia technique to draw patterns and even pictures on their pieces.Knitwear Review.

Love the gradient effect of the white sweater!Knitwear Review. New York and London Fashion Week. The Gift Of Knitting.Ulla Johnson played with stripes in their golden beige sweater - the stripes are changing direction, angle, the width and the pattern. Pejina Pyo used the contrasting colors - different for each sleeve (because why not?!), I love the effect it created - a simple classic pullover automatically turns into a statement piece! Fashion East integrated the color into shape and structure of the cropped cardigan.Knitwear Review. New York and London Fashion Week.
