Essential Knitwear Styles For Your Winter Wardrobe

One of the best things about switching to cold-weather apparel is that we simply get to wear more of our clothes and flaunt more of our fashion! To be more specific, it gives us the perfect opportunity (and excuse) to get experimental with our layering and if we’re going to be honest, we can think of few clothing categories that can claim to allow for more potential in this department than knitwear.

With winter season outfit options now very much the order of the day, we thought we’d share with you our hot knitwear picks from the season and explore the ways in which you can get the most of them now and over the coming months.

Valentino Wool & Jacquard Mesh Roll Neck Sweater

Valentino has gone big with its knitwear this season and our featured Wool & Jacquard Mesh Roll Neck Sweater does exactly that in the literal sense. Its boxy shape and oversized fit give it an almost poncho-like feel while the elongated neck stretches above the chin to ensure that the garment covers most of the body, most of the time. As such, it’s a dream piece for the chilly winter months and a fun style to layer up if you're feeling adventurous enough to experiment.

Amiri Black Pool Ball Cashmere Cardigan

The backbone of Amiri’s massive commercial appeal and the secret to its success lies in the label’s ability to get people talking. And stay talking. That’s certainly the case with the Black Pool Ball Cashmere Cardigan from their AW21 collection, a piece that really pops and catches the eye with its spotted and striped billiard balls. It evokes imagery of the smokey LA pool halls that Mike would like have frequented in his youth, another fine example of how the designer expertly weaves past experience into his creative process. The garment is certainly not short of luxury appeal either, having been spun from an eminently cushy cashmere fabric. Pair this with any of Amiri’s patented distressed jeans for that essential, 90s grunge vibe.

Givenchy Black Bandana Jacquard Silk Sweater

The meticulously designed bandana graphic is a recurring visual element throughout Matthew M. Williams’ latest Givenchy collection, one that complements the distinctly gothic vibe that underpins the lasting connection between label and designer. Givenchy’s Black Bandana Jacquard Silk Sweater is a finely detailed silhouette, crafted from a luxurious silken fabric and manufactured in the prestigious textile factories of England. The chic yet unassuming profile allows it to fit seamlessly into smarter looks and marries surprisingly well with a variety of tailoring options.

Off-White Black 3D Arrow Chunky Knit Wool Sweater

Virgil Abloh’s chunky, winter-friendly knits are always a highlight of his seasonal showcases, styles that perhaps best illustrate his finely tuned nuance in craft, design and fabrication. This season’s Black 3D Arrow Chunky Knit Wool Sweater is a particular favourite of ours. The enigmatic 3D arrow graphic speaks to the label’s multi-dimensional, ever-evolving vision, one that is oftentimes difficult to identify as exactly one thing or another. Instead, it occupies a space somewhere in between; a space that we’ve come to know as Off-White…
