There's no more denying it. Autumn is here, bringing with it a) cold weather b) cloudy weather and c) endless fashion potential. Yes, you might soon start to forget what the sun looks like, but if you fall within the category of fashion-conscious, then you'll know that layering season is your time to shine. Coats, boots, jumpers, cardigans - autumn is fashion's playground, and one item you'll need to see you through the impending inclement weather is a great jumper.
When it comes to popular high street jumpers, COS' Chunky Wool Crew Neck, £95 is something of a celebrity. Season after season, the COS jumper emerges as a fashion editor and influencer staple thanks to its expensive-looking design which hugely resembles The Row's £1,440 Ophelia Jumper - but at a mere fraction of the price. The knitted jumper is made from soft wool, and features a stylish crew neck. The fit is relaxed, perfectly cocooning the body, and is available in a versatile oyster hue that goes with everything, or statement-making cobalt blue. Much like Arket's popular alpaca-wool jumper, the COS jumper completely sold out last year, but is back in stock for this season.
The best thing about it? Sheer versatility. Team the COS jumper with your favourite jeans and a pair of Puma Speedcats (this season's new Samba), layered over a white shirt, trousers and loafers, or with a suede mini skirt, tights and knee-high boots.
If you're willing to stretch the budget further, COS' Pure Cashmere Jumper, £225 available in grey, dark khaki and black, is a slight upgrade on the Chunky Wool Jumper thanks to its luxurious cashmere construction which. It's an investment, yes, but one that will last you decades.
