3 knitwear essentials: Zebrano
“Knits are the pieces you reach for again and again”.
They layer easily, move with your day, and work with almost any outfit,” say the team of stylists at New Zealand designer fashion retailer Zebrano. We asked for their top three knitwear essentials, and how to style them.
THE JUMPER
From crew necks and V-necks to cropped, boxy, or tunic styles, there’s a jumper for every occasion. A V-neck works beautifully with a collared shirt, and rolling up the sleeves to reveal a cuff adds subtle interest. Cropped jumpers layer well over dresses, while oversized styles paired with slim-fit jeans create relaxed weekend outfits.

THE CARDIGAN
The ultimate throw-on layer. Cropped cardigans suit dresses and longer tops, while slouchy longline styles work perfectly over jeans or athleisure on weekends. For work, opt for a slightly fitted A-line style and fasten just the top buttons for a modern, fashion-forward finish.

THE VEST
Sleeveless and versatile, the vest adds warmth without bulk, making it perfect for in-between seasons and layering under jackets. For work, wear it over a crisp shirt or collared blouse for a polished look. Off-duty, try it over a longline tee or a fitted long-sleeve top.
“Whether you’re after soft, cosy merino or quality transeasonal cotton knits, we have something for every style, from edgy to everyday,” say Zebrano’s style gurus. With carefully curated styles from New Zealand, Australian, and international labels in sizes 14 plus, they know how to make knitwear work for every mood, moment, and body shape.
