STYLING

THE PREMIUM KNITWEAR MENU

Depending on lifestyle, taste and budget, your definition of a ‘good investment’ will differ from that of the next person. But there’s one thing most of us can agree on: knitwear is worth taking seriously. Good quality jumpers are a staple during winter, but lightweight knits and cardigans are also surprisingly versatile year-round. And if you’re picky in the first instance, your layers will reward you for seasons to come.

We’ll kick things off with a double-threat: the most luxurious and statement piece on this list. ARRANGE has consistently delivered bold designs without wavering on quality, and this pure wool jumper is no different. The delicate cream shade balances the unique texture, so nothing feels too ostentatious – but with a 100% wool composition, this heavyweight layer is soft, warm and offers a crash course in top-notch craftsmanship. Thanks to the 3D looped-yarn structure, the intentional gaps in the fabric create an illusion of movement, leaving creative space for layering.

This piece is a testament to knitwear’s classic status. Everything about it promises lasting style and substance. From the trending yet timeless brown shade to the heritage polo collar and lightweight silhouette, you’ll struggle to find something this doesn’t pair well with. It’s also great for layering under and over various pieces – from T-shirts to heavier sweatshirts and jackets. You can wave goodbye to chilly commutes, too, given the alpaca-wool blend creates an uber-soft and toasty finish that would give the hot water bottle a run for its money.

TOPSHOP EXPOSED-SEAM JUMPER

Burgundy is always a safe choice when winter approaches, but thanks to its rich, deep tone, it’ll pair well with plenty of lighter shades once spring comes around (say, cream or butter yellow). This exposed-seam jumper is crafted with a fluffy knit that’s deliciously soft and won’t bobble anytime soon. The cut of the sleeves also creates a relaxed, casual silhouette great for pairing with your favourite cold-weather boots and tailored pieces. We also love the thick cuffs and hem for an elevated look that feels far more expensive than the price tag.

& OTHER STORIES WOOL AND MOHAIR-MIX SWEATER

If you’re one for a pattern, then this & Other Stories knit is a must-have. And regardless of your minimalist credentials, it’s always worth having a statement on hand. This checkered jumper has a feather-light mohair finish and muted earthy tones that create a more abstract effect – so you can indulge in a trending tartan without going all stately home on everyone. We love this paired with leather pieces like a midi skirt or trousers, and there’s no harm in continuing the earthy theme by using brown shades throughout the rest of your look.

MANGO ASYMMETRIC JUMPER

Knitwear has a bit of a bad rap for being distinctly casual – but we’re here to confirm that it's fake news. Just take this Mango piece. It arrives in an elevated deep red with a soft knit and an asymmetric neckline that lets you flash some skin, even during a cold snap. Hardware details add a touch of luxury that’ll catch the light (and attention) at your next social gathering, and the soft drape means it practically falls off the body like a heavy pour of Pinot Noir. Delectable. No notes.
