Knitwear shaped by contrast

Baum und Pferdgarten knitwear brings a distinct point of view to women’s knitwear. Sweaters and cardigans form the centre of the collection, balancing familiar wardrobe codes with shifts in proportion, texture and detail. Oversized knit sweaters sit alongside more fitted forms, while classic button-front layers are reconsidered through cropped lengths, shaped waists, dropped shoulders and defined ribbing. The result is a varied knitwear wardrobe with both clarity and character.

Knitwear shaped by contrast

Baum und Pferdgarten knitwear brings a distinct point of view to women’s knitwear. Sweaters and cardigans form the centre of the collection, balancing familiar wardrobe codes with shifts in proportion, texture and detail. Oversized knit sweaters sit alongside more fitted forms, while classic button-front layers are reconsidered through cropped lengths, shaped waists, dropped shoulders and defined ribbing. The result is a varied knitwear wardrobe with both clarity and character.

Round necklines, V-necks and collars establish a recognisable structure across the collection. Some silhouettes are loose and relaxed, others follow the body more closely, creating a measured interplay between volume and definition. Fine knits bring a sharper line, while chunkier constructions make the stitch itself part of the look. Ribbed cuffs, hems and necklines give soft knitted surfaces a clean finish.

Sweaters and cardigans with considered proportions

Knit sweaters move between pared-back crew-neck shapes and polo-inspired designs with collars and button details. A relaxed, dropped-shoulder silhouette creates an easy contrast with more precise pieces below, while a closer-fitting knit can bring focus to the waist or work neatly beneath an outer layer. Decorative buttons, embroidery, ruching and flower-inspired accents appear as small interventions, adding expression without losing the collection’s graphic restraint.

Cardigans offer a broad range of ways to build an outfit. Fitted round-neck styles can be worn as a top in their own right, while V-neck, zip-front and relaxed button-through shapes introduce an additional layer. Pair a compact cardigan with women's trousers for a clear balance of softness and tailoring. A looser knit, by contrast, creates a more relaxed outline when set against straight or structured proportions.

Texture, stripes and knitted colour

Cashmere, alpaca and merino wool sit alongside fine-knit qualities to create different surfaces within one visual language. Cable stitches, ribbing and Milano-style knits bring definition through construction, from pronounced texture to a smoother, more compact finish. These shifts in gauge and surface allow knitwear to take a leading role in a look or to act as a quieter layer within a more complex composition.

Stripes and melange effects recur as graphic devices, bringing rhythm to sweaters, cardigans and scarves. Neutrals are joined by blue, pink, green and brown tones, allowing colour to work as either a subtle base or a stronger accent. A striped knit can establish the direction of an outfit immediately; a melange or single-colour piece leaves room for print, tailoring or texture elsewhere. Style a fitted knit with women's skirts to play a close silhouette against movement and shape.

Layer knitwear with intention

Knitwear works particularly well through contrast. Let a collared sweater bring structure to a relaxed ensemble, or use a cropped cardigan to create a deliberate break at the waist. Longer, looser layers can frame a simple base, while ribbed and fitted pieces create definition beneath more generous proportions. Add coats and jackets over knitwear to continue the dialogue between soft construction and a more architectural outer line.

Knitted scarves extend the collection beyond the main layer, carrying ribbed texture or colour contrast around the neckline. They can echo the surface of a sweater, sharpen a striped composition or provide a distinct final note against a simpler cardigan. Explore women's accessories for complementary details, and approach each knit as a practical wardrobe element with an unexpected edge.
