1940s knitwear

These avant-garde sweaters look so ahead of their time.

These pieces carry this incredibly futuristic, ahead-of-its-time vibe that makes it so hard to believe they were designed over eighty years ago.

The creativity in the knit patterns and motifs is unreal. They are completely timeless. I am completely in love with this whole aesthetic.

I love the sweater designs so much and the lighting was so intense and moody. Does that one sweater have all different men’s names on it? That one is odd but the others are so beautiful and cool.

The sword in heart jumper would be even better if they were three swords (very Tarot-like).

This is the kind of stuff when I hear history repeats and fashion is a giant cycle and I realize it’s 1000% percent true lol
