The quirky Eribé Melrose Tweed Sweater Dundee is a knit that effortlessly brings together tradition and innovation — just like the Scottish city it is named after.

Dundee, located on the River Tay, is known as a city of contrasts. Once it was a centre of the jute industry and shipbuilding; today it is a vibrant city of design and culture, with the iconic V&A Dundee as a modern symbol of creativity. Historic warehouses and contemporary architecture exist side by side.

That same layering is reflected in this sweater. Warm earthy tones are combined with lively accents in orange and fresh green. The fine tweed structure in the knit subtly refers to Scottish textile traditions, while bold colour blocks create a modern, graphic appearance.

Within the Melrose Tweed collection, this model shows how Eribé’s modern interpretation of tweed can feel surprisingly current. Classic texture is paired with daring colour combinations — just as Dundee connects its industrial past with contemporary design.

Crafted from 100% extrafine merino wool, the sweater feels light and supple. The wool breathes, regulates temperature and retains its shape, allowing comfort and appearance to go hand in hand.

The Dundee is expressive without being loud. A knit with rhythm, depth and character.

Be inspired by Scottish creativity in its most wearable form.

The story behind the Eribé collection Melrose Tweed
For designer Rosemary Eribé, knitwear has never been just clothing. It is a dialogue between past and present, between landscape and body, between texture and colour. With the Melrose Tweed collection, she brings this interplay to life in a way that is deeply rooted in Scotland – yet feels surprisingly modern.

Melrose Tweed is inspired by the texture and subtle colour play of rich Scottish tweed fabric. Traditional tweed, world-famous for its depth and layering, forms the starting point. But Rosemary reinterprets this heritage with her own signature: refined colour blocking, unexpected colour contrasts and a softness that stands in contrast to the classic, robust image of tweed.

Melrose, located in the Scottish Borders, is Eribé’s home town. A historic abbey town, surrounded by rolling landscapes, an ancient Roman fort and the iconic Eildon Hills. The name of this collection, Melrose Tweed, carries a double meaning. There is not only an obvious link to the world-renowned Scottish fabric, but also to the famous Scottish River Tweed – a river that holds both geographical and textile-historical significance.

What makes this collection special is the way the classic tweed texture is combined with Eribé’s own colour vision. The fabric structure and colour play of traditional tweed are interwoven with vibrant colour blocking. The result is a joyful, colourful and exceptionally soft collection that is at once stylish, innovative and leading. Behind each design lies a complex interplay of textures and patterns, inspired by Scottish heritage and translated into contemporary elegance.

The collection consists of cardigans and sweaters, each crafted from 100% extrafine and superlight merino wool. This choice underlines Rosemary’s vision: luxury must be tangible, but also wearable. The merino wool gives the pieces a light, breathable softness, while the rich colours and textures create visual depth.

Melrose Tweed is therefore more than a nod to the past. It is a conscious reinterpretation of a world-famous fabric, designed by a woman who understands tradition and dares to renew it.

A collection that breathes heritage, celebrates colour and elevates comfort to art.
