1. The Classic Black Knit
A classic black jumper is certainly worth the investment since this is a piece that will remain in your wardrobe for years to come. Wear to the office with tailored trousers, to dinner with a silk skirt, or keep it casual with jeans and loafers.
2. The Pop of Red
Winter is the perfect time of year to add a pop of red to your looks, like with this firey jumper — it brightens up the dark days and adds vibrancy to your outfits. A black wool coat is a great partner to red and the casual grey jeans act as a bridge between the two shades.
3. The Festive Fair Isle Knit
As the Fair Isle jumper weaves its way back into style, it’s quickly becoming a winter wardrobe staple. Its pattern, while not intrinsically Christmas-related, has become synonymous with the season, communicating a subtly festive vibe combined with the feeling of traditional craftsmanship.
4. The Go-To Grey Jumper
On those casual days when comfort is a priority but you still want to feel put together, that’s where this trusty knit comes in. Pair with comfy blue jeans and smart loafers, finishing the look with a luxe leather coat. Comfort, practicality and effortless cool, all in one!
5. The Cream Crew-Neck
A snowy white jumper encapsulates the colder months perfectly. For those casual days when you still want to look put-together, layer a crisp white shirt underneath to create a more polished feel and complete the look with black jeans and pointed ankle boots.
