Sweaters and Cardigans by van Laack – Refined Knitwear for Discerning Women
Since 1881, van Laack has stood for skilled craftsmanship and exquisite materials. This tradition is also reflected in the knitwear collection: sweaters and cardigans combine refined natural fibres, meticulous workmanship and timeless elegance into pieces that will accompany you for many years. Every item follows the aim of bringing together comfort and style at the highest quality – a promise that van Laack consistently fulfils with selected premium yarns from fabric partners such as Loro Piana.
Materials and Knit Qualities at a Glance
The collection encompasses both fine and voluminous knits. Ultra-fine merino wool and Milano Knit impress with their smooth surface, shape retention and pleasant comfort – ideal for an elegant appearance in the business day. Knit gauges between 12gg and 18gg reflect fine craftsmanship, while coarsely knitted 3gg styles offer cosy warmth for the cold season. Cashmere and pure cashmere lend a particularly soft feel and refined sheen, while alpaca models stand out for their lightness and warmth. Cotton knit provides pleasant breathability during the transitional season, and decorative bouclé and ajouré textures add feminine accents.
A Variety of Styles
The selection ranges from classic cardigans and twinsets to modern knit blouses and roll-neck, crew-neck, stand-up-collar and V-neck sweaters. In terms of fit, you will find both figure-hugging slim-fit models and loosely cut loose- and modern-fit variants, so there is a suitable piece for every style preference and occasion.
Combining and Styling
Sweaters and cardigans can be combined in many ways. A knitted blazer over a fine merino sweater complements a classic business look. For a feminine appearance, knit dresses and skirts from the dresses & skirts category are ideal. If you prefer sporty elegance, complete your wardrobe with high-quality polo shirts in knit quality, which echo the same refined look of premium natural fibres.
Frequently Asked Questions about Sweaters and Cardigans
Which material is suitable for which season?
Fine merino knit and cotton are ideal for the transitional season and the office, as they are breathable and temperature-regulating. Cashmere and coarsely knitted 3gg models keep you warm on cold winter days, while lightweight alpaca variants offer warmth without weight.
How do I properly care for cashmere and merino wool knitwear?
Fine knitwear made of cashmere and merino wool is best washed by hand or on a wool cycle with a special wool detergent and dried flat to maintain its shape. This keeps the feel and sheen intact over the long term.
Which fit is right for me?
Slim-fit models accentuate the silhouette and are suited to a clean, elegant look. Loose- and modern-fit variants have a more relaxed cut and are ideal if you prefer freedom of movement and a casual, modern style.
