Marks and Spencer Ladies Jumpers and Cardigans
Whether you want a cosy investment in neutral shades or a knitted number with a bright hue to inject some colour into your weekend wardrobe, the high street has a great range of contemporary yet covetable choices this season. Marks and Spencer’s new Pure Cashmere crew neck jumper, PS85 here, is a classic choice that ticks all the right boxes. It’s from the brand’s Autograph premium investment range and is crafted from a soft cashmere-like yarn that has been certified by the Sustainable Fibre Alliance.
The jumper is made to a comfy regular fit with neat crew neckline and front placket featuring stylish tortoiseshell buttons. Contrasting ribbing adds texture to the body, cuffs and hem. Reviewers have praised the jumper’s versatility, pointing out that it can be worn with jeans and trainers for casual daywear or layered over a polo neck or staple white shirt at work. For evening wear, it can be styled with a chic detachable frilled collar and accessorised with chunky gold hoops or diamond tennis necklaces.
Other high-street brands have been unveiling their knitwear offerings for the autumn. The likes of Khaite and Everlane have been bringing cool neutral shades and modern block colours to their collection, while Boden has been updating its signature wool designs with metallics. Meanwhile, cult label The Row is a go-to for luxe cashmere and wool sweaters, with Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen’s favourite style being a buttoned-front oversized silhouette with dense fringe detailing. For more laid-back, everyday pieces, Alex Mill, helmed by former Gap and J.Crew CEO Millard “Mickey” Drexler and ex-design director of Madewell, has been creating easy-to-wear wardrobe staples with subtle, never trendy accents. These include ribbed tees and cardigans with a half-zip detail, striped designs and cold shoulder styles. Marks and Spencer Ladies Jumpers and Cardigans
