This vintage Escada mohair sweater is a dreamy collector’s piece from the 1980s. Designed by Margaretha Ley and made in Germany, it showcases the label’s iconic blend of elegance and whimsy.
The powder blue knit feels soft and airy, thanks to its mohair-wool blend. Creamy cable panels trim the neckline, sleeves, and back, creating contrast and texture. On the reverse, two birds appear subtly woven into the knit, perched among abstract floral shapes. This detail adds a delicate, romantic touch to an already standout design.
While the fit is relaxed, it’s still refined. The sweater features dropped shoulders, a deep V-neck, and a wide ribbed hem that helps shape the silhouette. It drapes with ease, but the construction keeps it structured.
You can pair this piece with tailored trousers or wear it casually with jeans. It’s warm, yet lightweight. It’s detailed, yet wearable. And it speaks volumes without saying a word
