Oh, it’s so exciting, like children on Christmas morning, Ripping open the packaging to reveal our eagerly awaited - New Summer Knitwear …
Knitwear – by taylor, in store this weekend!
With the success of our last by taylor knitwear collection, we have 5 new Summer styles to introduce to your taylor wardrobes. Made up of the most delicate Tencel/Linen Knits and beautifully gauzy Cotton/Linen knits, we are having trouble deciding which is our favourite. Each piece is a must have for the warm summer months, subtle details, clever design, they are practical and well suited for everybody.

Left: Envelope Cardi (worn upside down) with Stingray Top, Multi Chain Necklace, and Cuffed Limans Centre: Envelope Cardi in Sand, Emerald, Charcoal, Right: Envelope Cardi (worn right way up)
If you have been in-store these last couple of days you may have spied a couple of pieces of our new knitwear already, the Envelope Cardi being one of them. This is your long length cardi for the summer time, but it is much more than that. With buttons all down the front, you can transform this one into different looks. The more you play with it, the more looks you will find with this one. If you loved our Ribbed Venetian Cowl in Merino last winter (and all the many ways you can wear it), then this one is definitely worth a try.

Left: Finch Cardi (worn upside down and wrapped) with Adrift Dress, Taylor Tank and Shackle Belt Right: Finch Cardi in Sand, and Charcoal
The Finch Cardi is another versatile style. It is a cropped style that you can have as a caped cardi cover-up or as an alternative to a summer wrap. Of course we have added our unique taylor twist with a striking contrast stitch along the back. You have the option to wear this one upside down, and wrapped up as it comes with it’s own matching yarn covered kilt pin.

Left: Afloat Sweater in Emerald, Charcoal, Sand Right: Afloat Sweater with Rope Necklace, Trossart Tee, and Graduate Pants
If you loved our Merino Unite Sweater from winter, then this one is like her little sister. The gauziness of this Cotton/Linen sweater makes it easy to wear and a cool choice to wear on it’s own with jeans or add a sort of casualness to the Silk Graduate Pants. Or you can also layer it up with a Definition or Confine Shirt and Integral Pants.

Left: Slash Cardi with Wisp Encounter Top and Stripe Garner Pants Right: Slash Cardi in Black and Sand
How beautiful and super soft these mesh Tencel/Linen knits are -you will have to feel for yourself. The Slash Cardi is such a lovely floaty piece of knitwear that drapes in a such an interesting way and you can wrap it up with the kilt pin also. Another option of how to wear this one is one upside down so you have the centre split creating a dramatic kind of tail in the back.

Left: Slouch Sweater in Sand and Black Right: Slouch Sweater with Mesh Camber Tunic and Assume Pants
Our Slouch Sweater is also a piece made up the super soft Tencel/Linen yarn. It’s basically a gorgeous knitted summer tee and I just love the sheerness of this one, making it an ideal piece to layer up and have some fun with. This one is a chic option to wear casual again, or pair with feminine maxi lengths like our Float Skirt.
As usual, on a mannequin or on a hanger really does not do these pieces any justice. If we have intrigued you with the many ways that you can wear these pieces, then you really must try for yourself.
Hope to see you in store soon!
