Style
The comfort factor
Modern checks
Checks of any sort are a mainstay in most wardrobes, but this season they’ve been given a thoroughly modern update to make them statement-worthy. Think unusual colour pairings and contrasting patterns – this print is throwing off its classic origins and is crying out to be seen.
Return of the roll neck
A seventies style classic: the turtleneck is back and he’s here to stay. Choose a thicker fabric to wear solo with flared jeans (for that true hippy vibe), or go thin and layer it beneath summer’s best-loved shirt. More than just a handy scarf alternative, this jumper’s styling potential makes your outfit options endless.
Cosy cable knits
Ribbed, fisherman-style or cable knit: however you refer to these chunky jumpers, complete cosiness is guaranteed. Opt for a timeless classic in cream, grey or navy for a piece you’ll pull out winter after winter – or pick a brighter hue for a fun trans-seasonal update.
We love: Polo Ralph Lauren’s grey version, which, when worn under your denim jacket, will see you through until the weather gets really cold.
Cool cardigans
It’s official: the cardigan is cool again. No longer a relic in your grandfather’s wardrobe, the cosy cover-up has had a makeover. Keep it simple with a navy design worn over a plain white T-shirt for Sunday-friendly style that’ll never date. Meanwhile, some of this season’s best designs have been upgraded with racing stripes or a fun motif peeking out from the pockets.
