I picked three pullovers that are thin and great for throwing on lightly. MARGESHERWOOD's DEEP V-NECK PULLOVER_grey and DEEP V-NECK PULLOVER_black, plus [40%] tangle double knit (charcoal) from Moia, currently at 40% off. All three have a great thickness for wearing alone or layering with other clothes as the seasons change.
The pullover got its name literally from the way you wear it—pulling it over your head without any front buttons. It traces its roots back to rough workwear knitted by Northern European fishermen and rugged field laborers to withstand sea winds and cold. In the late 19th century, British rowers began wearing them to keep their body temperature up and work up a sweat, cementing the connection with the name sweater. What once was tough functional clothing for training grounds has settled over time into such thin, neat everyday wear.
Among the three on the list, shall we narrow down to the V-neck pullovers first, or would you like to check under KRW 100,000 or 100% cashmere materials first?
↳ Under KRW 100,000
I picked three knits under KRW 100,000 that are great for wearing lightly: Moia's [40%] tangle double knit (charcoal) and [40%] patio crop knit (navy), plus SOFT FRAY KNIT SLEEVELESS TOP [LILAC] - Low Tide from Low Tide. All three do not cling to the body and are either loosely or sturdily knit, making them great for layering at the turn of the seasons.
A patio is a traditional courtyard style in Andalusia, southern Spain. To escape the dry heat where midsummer temperatures soar up to 40 degrees, instead of closing off exterior walls, they left the center of the house open to create cool shade and breeze paths. The water evaporating from the fountains and water channels placed in the middle cooled the heat, making it a clever summer retreat where temperatures were about 10 degrees lower than outside.
Since they are cut with enough room for breezes to pass through, you'll reach for them often from now on, whether alone or as an inner layer. Their sleeve styles and textures are all different, so you can choose based on whether you'd like to show your shoulders or lightly cover them. Shall we look at short-sleeve knit tops, sleeveless tops, or raise the price range to look at long sleeves?

↳ Short-sleeve knit tops
Since you're looking for short-sleeve knit tops, I picked four colors of MARGESHERWOOD's delicately translucent basic sheer T-shirt. BASIC SHEER T-SHIRT_black, BASIC SHEER T-SHIRT_melange grey, BASIC SHEER T-SHIRT_white, and BASIC SHEER T-SHIRT_pink are all lined up on the list. It's a very thin and delicate knit, so it drapes lightly over the body while softly revealing your silhouette.
Ancient Greek sculptors also especially cherished the vitality of such thin cloth draping over bare skin. In an era when depicting female nudity was strictly forbidden, masters including Phidias found a breakthrough in the 'wet drapery' technique. By sculpting fabrics as if they were soaked in water or caught in strong winds, they fully covered the body while still bringing out its curves and three-dimensionality. Much like the Winged Victory of Samothrace, it was a presentation that used the power of air to evoke both sensuality and mystery at once.
The sensibility of accentuating lines while covering the body carries straight through across eras. Shall we go with calm neutrals like black or melange grey this time, or brighten things up with white or pink?
