Admittedly, living in the Northern Hemisphere has made me appreciate dressing appropriately for cold weather. What first started purely as an acceptance that I needed to rug up, I now love everything knitwear has to offer.

One of my favourite collections is by Stine Ladefoged, a recent graduate of The Danish Design School MA program. “Narcissm is Calling,” her final project, was inspired by postmodern influences, particularly postmodern architecture and humans that yearn to be the center of attention.
