KNWLS SWEATERS

Founded in 2017, London-based label KNWLS animates expertly tailored womenswear with its own intuitive and empowered femininity. Creative directors Charlotte Knowles and Alexandre Arsenault—both Central Saint Martins prodigies—take inspiration from the aesthetics of lingerie to craft collections of delicate, technical pieces. The designs favor semi-sheer fabrics and formfitting silhouettes that strike a natural balance between concealing and revealing, and feature earthy colorways that speak to the brand’s ultimate mystique. Marked by a sensitively rendered poise, KNWLS’s distinct and evolving voice has cemented the brand’s place as a cult favorite in a new era of modern womenswear.
