SAINT by Riffhaus - Knitted cardigan - Riff on Rosalia's Berghain

There’s a particular kind of holiness that only happens after midnight—
soft, surreal, and a little unhinged. SAINT was built for that liminal space.

A relaxed-fit white cardigan dotted with pixel-tapered crosses and tiny red hearts, echoing Rosalia’s strange fairytale tenderness in Berghain. It feels innocent at first glance, then unsettling the longer you look. A winter relic masquerading as knitwear.

This piece lives in contrasts: warm but ghostly, gentle but charged, devotional without ever being pious. It turns the whole body into a quiet signal—an invitation, or a warning, depending on who’s reading you.

Each one is made to order, so the symbolism stays personal.

Why I made it

SAINT is the softer counterpart to MARTYR—
more vulnerable, more porous, more open to the story you put into it.
Inspired by the idea of wandering through a dark forest with a cardigan that glows like a lantern.
