The Muse - Françoise Hardy
In this series, we reflect on the role of a muse in the design of Lou Dungate knitwear. As a company, we embrace individuality, and champion the quiet inner confidence that allows the wearer to feel comfortable in simple and understated pieces. However, knitting as a craft is communal and its roots are shared across the world. It is equally nostalgic and ever evolving. It is here that we pay tribute to the heritage of knitwear and the many people who wear it well.
“I am my own muse. I am the subject I know best. The subject I want to know better.”
― Frida Kahlo
I never met a navy sweater that I didn’t like…
“There are so many dreams beyond our nights, and so much sunshine beyond our grey walls. But we can't see it when we stay at home. There is so much sky above our roof. Is the door so old that it won't open, or are we at home because we're afraid of catching a chill?” - Françoise Hardy
A basic roll neck sweater teamed with shorts.
Cropped, pilling and perfect. A well worn sweater is often the best part of any wardrobe.
“I never get bored. There isn't enough time in the day for me.” - Françoise Hardy
