The new Winter 2023 module is looking to create a modular wardrove that is packed with a slew of “inter-seasonal additions.” Some of the standout items in the collection include the Noe Knit, which comes in tonal options of Moss and Darkest Navy colors. It has a sleek silhouette with lightweight Italian lamb wool for a soft touch. It comes together to form the soft framing collar complete with a three-buttoned placket. Another notable item is the Alva knit with fine Italian wool for a slouchy shape.
