IZUMI KATO Rete Ritratto Sweater

Part of the ANTEPRIMA x IZUMI KATO runway collection, the IZUMI KATO Rete Ritratto Sweater embodies the collection's exploration of Modern Primitive and Playful Art Paradox.

Inspired by Kato’s signature portrait drawings, this statement runway piece features a dimensional jacquard face rendered through intricate pointelle knitting and twisted cable techniques, celebrating a tactile, wearable interpretation of contemporary art. The silhouette is oversized and relaxed, finished with extended ribbed cuffs, a thick crew neckline, and a wide hem for structure. The use of mixed yarns—wool, mercerized cotton, mohair, nylon, and peartex — adds visual depth and material contrast.

Style it as seen on the runway with a textured knitted mini skirt and sculptural accessories to balance its voluminous form with curated, artistic flair.
