Sonia Rykiel- Famed for her stripy Knits and Punk Influences


SONIA RYKEIL- The sweater is her symbol and she was crowned "Queen of Knits" by the Americans in 1967. She later became the first designer to put seams on the outside of a garment, and to print words on her sweaters. In particular, she favours long clinging sweaters or small cropped pullovers, large rolled-back cuffs and long shawls. Her colours are usually beige, grey, dark blue and charcoal. In 1980 she was voted one of the world's 10 most elegant women. She proved that knitwear can follow any trend.
