Knitted at 12-gauge in extra-fine merino with silk carried through, the rib is dense enough at 280gsm to hold a column line without a lining and fine enough not to add bulk under a coat. The funnel neck is knitted in one with the body rather than sewn on, the sleeves are fully fashioned at the shoulder and taper to a narrow cuff, and a 22cm split at the centre back hem lets you walk properly and take stairs at pace. It falls straight from the shoulder to mid-calf with no waist seam, so it works on a body that changes shape through the week. It is the piece for a Melbourne office in July, worn with boots and the Compass trench, and on its own with flats in a mild Perth September.
We choose our cloth from long-established mills in India, where these fibres have been woven for generations, and hold every roll to the same standard before it is cut. Your piece is then made up by hand in our Australian atelier.
Wash cool and gently, dry in the shade, and press on a low heat. Silk and linen are happiest dry cleaned.
Australian sizing, AU 6 to AU 16. Cut true to size. Between sizes, take the larger for a relaxed line.
Made to order in limited runs and dispatched from our Australian atelier within 5 to 7 business days. Free shipping on every order, or fast shipping for $5. 30-day returns on unworn pieces with tags attached.
Australian sizing, measured in centimetres on the body. Between sizes? The fit note on each piece says whether to go up or down.
