Kordal Studio brought a thoughtful, understated approach to knitwear that felt both modern and enduring. Though the brand is no longer in business, the SS19 collection remains part of YUCCA’s archive as an example of design rooted in ethics, craftsmanship, and ease.
Knitwear Designed for Warm Weather
Kordal Studio SS19 challenged the idea that knitwear belongs only to colder months. Lightweight yarns and open constructions made these pieces wearable even in the heat of summer, offering softness without heaviness and structure without restriction.
The collection leaned into simplicity — drawing inspiration from ’90s minimalism and everyday dressing — while maintaining a strong commitment to ethical production.
