Berek's journey began over 40 years ago with a moment of inspiration. Founder Jack Zyman stumbled upon the vibrant, hand-knit sweaters worn by the locals while traveling through remote South American villages. This discovery ignited an idea - to create "art you can wear," allowing people to express their personalities through bold, eye-catching designs. Thus, the iconic Berek "statement" sweater was born.

When Berek introduced its collection in 1977, the response was incredible. The fashion world took notice of these unique, handcrafted pieces, and soon, Berek was recognized as a trailblazer in the realm of novelty sweaters. Decades later, the brand continues to be highly esteemed among enthusiasts of wearable art.

Today, Berek's offerings encompass more than just sweaters. The company designs a wide array of clothing, including tees, blouses, jackets, pants, dresses, and outerwear. A talented design team led by Creative Director Jill Rogers is committed to pushing the boundaries of fashion. They find inspiration in global trends and translate them into intricate, labor-intensive designs that exhibit a mastery of technique.

By combining innovative yarns and integrating 3D embellishments, embroidery, and beading, the Berek team employs various methods to bring their creative visions to life. Each piece tells a story, reflecting the designer's perspective and capturing the essence of current fashion trends. When you choose Berek, you're investing in a wearable work of art that sets you apart.
