Knit-led pieces across the full Apéro range

Where maternity jumpers focus specifically on pullover and wrap-front knit jumpers, the knitwear edit pulls in the broader knit story across the Apéro range. This includes the knit midi dresses (the Monica polo knit midi, the Gaia knit midi, the Bora Bora knit maxi), the ribbed long-sleeve tops in the Ari and Ivy lines, the wrap-front knit tops, the ribbed scoop neck tanks, and the structured knit jumpers and lounge knits. The unifying element is the fabric: substantial knit construction rather than thin maternity stretch.

Apéro's knit pieces use proper cable, ribbed, waffle, and panelled knit constructions that hold their shape across long days and many wears. This matters because thin maternity stretch knits often distort under a bump and don't insulate properly in cooler weather. The knitwear in this collection is weighted enough to layer cleanly under coats and substantial enough to be worn solo in milder weather. Many pieces also include engineered breastfeeding access via wrap fronts, scoop necklines, or side panels.

Knit pieces tend to be the longest-lasting items in a maternity wardrobe because the construction adapts to body changes rather than relying on stretch alone. Many shoppers find their Apéro knits continue working through breastfeeding and into the months after weaning as regular winter wardrobe pieces.

Frequently asked questions

  • What's in the Apéro knitwear collection spans dresses, tops, tanks, and jumpers in substantial knit constructions. Specifically you'll find knit midi dresses (Monica, Gaia, Bora Bora), ribbed long-sleeve tops (Ari, Ivy), wrap-front knit tops, ribbed scoop neck tanks, oversized panel jumpers, and stripe knit pullovers. The unifying element is the fabric weight: proper knit construction rather than thin maternity stretch.

  • The knitwear collection is broader than maternity jumpers. Maternity jumpers focus specifically on pullover and wrap-front jumper styles. Knitwear includes those plus knit dresses, knit tops, ribbed long-sleeve pieces, and knit tanks. Think of jumpers as a subcategory of the broader knitwear edit.

  • Many Apéro knit pieces are breastfeeding-friendly. The wrap-front knit tops and dresses, the ribbed scoop neck tanks, and pieces with side panels all allow discreet feeding access. Solid pullover knits without specific access need to be lifted to feed, which works at home but is harder in public. The feeding-friendly status is noted on each product page so you can confirm before ordering.

  • You care for Apéro knitwear with a cold machine wash in a delicate bag, or by cold hand washing, to avoid shrinkage. Wash separately from heavier fabrics. Reshape while damp and lay flat to dry. Do not tumble dry. Steaming is preferred over ironing for most knits. Full care instructions and fabric composition are listed on each product page.

  • What fabrics Apéro uses in the knit range varies by piece. Most pieces are cotton-blend or cotton with elastane for stretch. Some heavier pieces include viscose and polyester blends for drape and shape retention. Ribbed jersey, waffle texture, cable knit, and stripe-panel knit are the main construction types. Each product page lists the exact fabric composition so you can match it to your seasonal needs.
