So, you’ve invested in a knit in a statement colour, what next? Try for a tonal look, as seen with this burgundy outfit, which ties a cosy oxblood jumper with boots and a jacket in the same colour family. Plus, there’s an extra knit layered on top, for luck.
A knitted twinset is the perfect investment for those who want to double down on hibernation dressing (it also helps if you’re a fan of the ladylike trend, too). Although, the way the look is worn now plays up a masculine edge with low-slung, loose jeans and boyish penny loafers.
The knit of the moment? It comes in grey and has a polo collar. Seek out brands such as Leset and Khaite or, on the high street, Mango and COS to get the look.
We love a chunky cashmere crew-neck jumper to upgrade a simple jeans and ballet flats outfit, or to casual-ise a silk slip skirt and trainers combo. While this pure cashmere khaki knit is sold out, you can still nab it in black.
What’s trending now? Even knits aren’t immune to the current explosion of brown this season. Think rich, dark chocolate shades that bring a notably earthy tone to your look. As well as going great with denim (both white and blue jeans), the colour lends itself well to a palette of tan and conker.
Investing in a knitted vest? Don’t forget to size up so that you can layer a cap, or long-sleeved T-shirt, underneath. Keep your bottom half loose-fitting, too: a pair of straight or wide-leg jeans will work wonderfully. Bonus points if your vest is striped, like this one from the recent collaboration between Marks & Spencer and Bella Freud.
If, like us, you’re constantly on the hunt for the perfect button-up knitted cardigan, we may have found the solution in this delectable Dôen knit, plus the perfect way to wear it with a pair of high-waisted straight leg jeans, ballet flats and a rattan bag.
Looking to dress up your favourite knitted jumper? Throw a pair of square-toe leather or mock-croc ankle boots into the mix, add a statement, slouchy bag and you’re good to go.
