Introducing Plus Size Knit Cardigans

The knit cardigan earns its spot on every wish list for good reason! Whether you’re throwing on one as an extra layer under your coat for added warmth or opting for a little cardigan number during the warmer months, it's guaranteed to stick around.

With a touch of play and colour, a vivid cardigan is a great way to beat any winter blues. Brighten up your wardrobe with playful prints and statement designs as a blank canvas for creativity, from abstract motifs to animal prints. Easy to dress up or down, pair with denim jeans for a relaxed look or elevate your outfit with a satin skirt for endless compliments.

Don't Sweat It

It's time to ditch the hoodies for a soft knit sweater that instantly elevates any look. From chunky stripes to cosy colour-block knits, these knitted beauties blend texture, colour, and comfort to brighten grey days and turn heads wherever you go.

Choose from a range of crafted styles and patterns such as luxe V-necks, playful cropped cuts and standout colours like pastel green and butter yellow. For more versatility, opt for a ribbed fabric for a sleek finish or a cable knit to add texture and depth to your outfit.

Style a cropped jumper with high-waisted jeans or a mini denim skirt and ankle boots for a fresh, youthful vibe. Or, reach for a satin midi skirt and heels for a date-night look and add gold jewellery for a touch of effortless glam.

Knit Tops Without the Bulk

Looking for something more delicate than a chunky jumper but still warm? Curvy knit tops are the perfect solution. These lightweight styles add just the right amount of coverage under outerwear or layered over thermals. From sleeveless tops and waistcoats to off-the-shoulder designs, they're easy to wear, low maintenance, and blissfully crease-free.

Stick with classic ribbed tops or switch things up with crochet details, sheer textures, or button-up styles. Ideal for easy indoor layering, lighter than a jumper but more substantial than a basic tee. The ultimate middle ground in comfort and aesthetic.

Dress The Part

Seasons change, but your love for dresses doesn't have to. Plus size knit dresses for women are the defining one-piece wonder, offering warmth, comfort, and undone sophistication. From figure-hugging bodycon styles with added stretch to flattering wrap designs that accentuate your curves, these adaptable pieces are easy to dress up or down for any occasion.

Enhance your workwear style and layer a knit dress with a tailored blazer to nail the Office Siren aesthetic while still keeping things polished and professional. Want to bring the timeless LBD into your cold-weather wardrobe? Opt for a black knitted dress paired with heeled burgundy boots and a bold red lip for a striking pop of colour.

Knit Skirts That Hug You Right

Mix up your bottom rotation with a range of refined plus size knit skirts. Whether you’re into mini or maxi lengths, these curvy skirts add a feminine touch to any outfit while delivering the same cosy feel as your favourite track pants or leggings. These skirts will keep you warm whilst looking put-together, making them a must-have for both casual days and dressier occasions.

Pair your knit skirt with a matching sweater or a neutral knit top to create a sleek and coordinated ensemble. Want to switch it up for a night out? Contrast the softness of knit with a faux leather evening top and heels for a look that's equal parts comfy and cool. Whether you're heading to brunch or drinks with the girls, knit skirts offer a stylish alternative to your usual jeans or pants.

Are you ready to upgrade your wardrobe with comfort and style? From cosy cardigans to curve-loving knit dresses, there's a perfect knit suitable for every mood and moment. Shop the full range online or explore the plus size collection in-store at You & All Australia!
