KAREN MILLENKnitted Peplum Turtleneck Top
Lookbook
Description
- The peplum hem is the defining detail here - it flares out from a nipped waist in soft, structured pleats that hold their shape rather than collapse, giving the silhouette a defined, architectural quality. - A wool-rich blend that insulates without bulk, naturally breathable and structured enough to retain its form through repeated wear - the kind of knit that looks as considered at the end of the day as it did at the start. - Long sleeves with a ribbed cuff sit close to the wrist, while the body is worked in a finer rib that follows the torso closely before releasing into the peplum. - The high turtleneck sits snug against the neck - polished enough to stand alone, or to layer under a tailored coat without adding unnecessary bulk at the collar. - Proportioned to work with both wide-leg and straight-cut trousers - the peplum hem sits at the hip, making it a considered pairing rather than an afterthought. The wool blend has a soft hand and a gentle warmth to it - not heavy, but genuinely insulating in a way that makes it a natural choice from autumn through to early spring. The structure of the knit means it moves with you rather than against you; the pleated peplum swings slightly with each step but never loses its shape. Worn as the model has it here, tucked over wide-leg dark denim with kitten-heel mules, it reads as a considered daytime look that requires very little effort to pull together. For a more formal setting - a client lunch, an evening gallery opening - swap the denim for tailored wide-leg trousers in a neutral or tonal shade, and let the turtleneck do the work of a statement neckline. The silhouette is self-contained enough that jewellery is optional; a single fine chain or small earrings are all it needs. It is the kind of top that earns its place in a wardrobe by working harder than it looks. Product Details & Care Main: 50% Nylon, 35% Wool, 15% Acrylic. Cool hand wash only.
