Product Insights & Style Tips

A wool and cashmere blend with a crisp polo silhouette, the Leni cropped sweater reads as quiet luxury. The fabric feels midweight with a touch of stretch, a blend of 60% wool, 33% cashmere and 7% elastane that yields structure without stiffness. A spread collar, close ribbed trims and neat cropped length frame a look that feels refined yet instantly wearable.

At the body, the Leni sits cropped above the waist and pairs gracefully with high rise denim, a sleek pencil skirt, or a slip dress layered beneath a blazer. The ribbed cuffs and hem anchor the shape, while the knit's stretch keeps movement easy. It layers over tees or bralettes and under outerwear, moving from coffee runs to after dark dinners without missing a beat.

As part of Khaite's Leni line, this polo knit speaks to the label's refined sportswear codes: luxe fibers, cropped precision, and a modern, polished silhouette.

Style Check

Aesthetics: 9/10

Bold cropped silhouette and luxe textural contrast define this KHAITE sweater as an instant editorial moment. The cropped wool and cashmere blend sits sleekly against high rise separates, while the restrained palette and refined ribbed trim allow for dramatic layering. The piece exudes quiet confidence, ready to anchor a forward, fashion-forward wardrobe.

Craftsmanship: 8/10

Construction reads as thoughtful luxury: dense knit, crisp edges, and even gauge across the cropped body. Soft drape from the wool cashmere blend hints at plush warmth, while precise ribbing preserves structure. Close up reveals clean seams and fine finishing, elevating the piece beyond fast fashion's typical knits.

Affordability: $$$

The value aligns with its high end inspiration and material richness, even as the price sits at a premium level. For a statement knit that doubles as a core building block, the cost feels justified given the luxe blend and brand pedigree, especially when styled with elevated heels or sleek tailoring.

The KHAITE Moodboard

Khaite Spring 2027 Softens Up With Lingerie Dressing and Hand Embroidery

Khaite Spring 2027 has romance on the brain. Catherine Holstein opened with Kaia Gerber in a white bra and ultra-fitted leather skirt, its split back revealing handmade corsetry underneath. From there came exposed bras, slips, nightie-like dresses and minidresses slipping off the shoulders, pulling from lingerie shapes spanning the 1920s through the ’40s. Even the undone bedhead pushed the runway further away from anything too polished.

Khaite Resort 2027 Gives American Sportswear a Khaite Edge

Khaite Resort 2027 brings Catherine Holstein back to the pieces that built the New York label, leather outerwear, lace slips, cashmere knits, Lotus bags, and boots with real presence. As Khaite reaches its 10 year milestone, the season feels less like a reset and more like a clean pull from the brand’s own wardrobe vocabulary. The clothes are direct, tactile, and very clear about what the Khaite woman wants to wear now.

Khaite Fall 2026 Brings Cinematic Runway Drama

Khaite presented its Fall 2026 runway collection at New York Fashion Week inside the Park Avenue Armory. A massive curved LED wall stretched across the venue and projected the words “Now you are here. Here you are now” as guests entered the room. The installation rose nearly sixty feet high and formed the visual backdrop for Catherine Holstein’s latest show. Designed with architectural designer Griffin Frazen, the set created a reflective atmosphere before the first model stepped onto the runway. The show continued Holstein’s vision of the Khaite woman through precise tailoring, dramatic eveningwear, and details that shifted the mood of familiar silhouettes. Lace, velvet, and sharp outerwear appeared throughout the lineup, creating contrast between romantic dressing and structured pieces. The show builds on the direction Holstein established in previous seasons, which you can see across earlier Khaite runway coverage on The Cool Hour.
