Investing in high-quality, stylish knitwear is essential for New Zealand’s changing weather. Lightweight layers are perfect for coastal areas, while heavier knits suit colder inland regions. Choosing the right fabric and knit ensures comfort and versatility throughout the seasons.

From jumpers and jerseys to cardigans and jackets, having a well-rounded knitwear collection means you’re always prepared—no matter the season! 

Summer: Breathable and Lightweight Knits

During a New Zealand summer, warm mornings transition into cooler evenings, making knitwear a must-have. Breathable cotton and linen knits keep you stylish without overheating. Layer a lightweight cardigan over a summer dress or pair a jersey or jumper with relaxed trousers for effortless weekend wear.

Autumn: Transitioning with Midweight Layers

As temperatures drop, midweight knits offer the flexibility needed for unpredictable weather. Merino wool becomes a staple, regulating body temperature while staying soft against the skin. Long-sleeve wool jerseys, jumpers, and cardigans are key pieces for effortless autumn styling.
