Black mohair sweater DANA

The DANA is a black mohair sweater with a distinctive sheer structure that effortlessly bridges the gap between everyday comfort and contemporary style. Handcrafted from a premium mohair blend, this loose-fit sweater features a delicate open weave that catches the light beautifully — making it one of those rare pieces that works as well over a summer dress as it does with winter layers.

Whether you’re looking for a black mohair jumper for cooler evenings or a sheer black sweater to elevate a simple outfit, the DANA delivers both in one versatile garment.

A Black Sheer Sweater Designed for Every Season

Most knitwear is seasonal. The DANA is not. Its sheer mohair construction makes it lightweight enough for cool summer evenings, yet warm enough to layer through autumn and winter. Wear it over a slip dress for an effortless summer-to-evening look, or layer it over a turtleneck when temperatures drop. The loose, relaxed silhouette means it adapts to whatever you’re wearing underneath.

The subtle light shine of the mohair yarn gives the DANA a quiet elegance that sets it apart from heavier, opaque knitwear. It catches the light without being flashy — the kind of detail that gets noticed without demanding attention.

Raglan Sleeves and Relaxed Fit

The raglan sleeve construction is central to the DANA’s effortless feel. Unlike set-in sleeves, raglan sleeves extend in one piece from the collar to the underarm, creating a smooth, uninterrupted shoulder line and allowing complete freedom of movement. Combined with the loose fit, the result is a sweater that feels as comfortable as it looks.

The sheer structure adds a distinctly modern edge. Rather than a solid, opaque knit, the open weave creates a see-through effect that makes the DANA ideal for layering — the garment beneath becomes part of the overall look, whether that’s a simple black bralette, a fitted tank, or a delicate lace top.

Black Mohair – Timeless and Versatile

Black is the most versatile colour in any wardrobe, and in mohair, it takes on a particular depth and richness. The natural sheen of the mohair fibre gives the DANA’s black a luminous quality — darker and more interesting than a standard black knit, with a soft halo that adds texture without bulk.

This is a black mohair sweater you will reach for repeatedly. It works with leather trousers for an evening look, with jeans for casual days, and over dresses for a layered, relaxed aesthetic. The sheer structure means it never feels heavy or overwearing — just quietly stylish.

Handcrafted in Latvia

The DANA is handcrafted in Latvia by skilled artisans, one piece at a time. Handcrafting allows for a quality of construction and attention to detail that machine-made knitwear simply cannot replicate. Each DANA sweater carries the subtle character of genuine craftsmanship — a garment made with care, designed to last.

How to Style Your Black Sheer Mohair Sweater

The DANA’s versatility makes it one of the most adaptable pieces in the Krista Elsta collection. Here are a few ways to wear it:

• Over a black slip dress for a tonal, effortlessly elegant evening look
• With leather or faux leather trousers and a black bralette for an edgy, contemporary outfit
• Over a fitted white turtleneck for contrast and layered texture in cooler months
• Draped over a summer dress on cool evenings for an easy transitional layer
• With wide-leg trousers and a simple camisole for a relaxed daytime look

Care Instructions

To keep your DANA looking its best, handwash at 30°C. Lay flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight. With proper care, this black sheer sweater will remain a wardrobe staple for years to come.
