The Most Expensive-Looking Knitwear, According to an Editor

Whether we’re greeted with bright skies or grey mornings, the winter chill has officially settled in, and I’m planning on making the most of the knitwear return. Instead of throwing on jumpers and layering in scarves simply for insulation purposes, I’m taking a considered approach to assembling my knitwear for the new season, this time looking to the most expensive-looking details that will ensure that even when I’m cosy, my looks remain incredibly chic.

Over the past few weeks, I’ve spent my time searching high and low for the very best knitwear pieces, and found that the most elegant styles have a few things in common. Little details are making a big impact this season, be it a neckline or a textural finish, making certain pieces look three times their price tags. In recent years, outerwear has been graced with the sophisticated finish of an integrated scarf, and now the refined finishing touch has made its way into the sleekest knitwear designs around. Alongside, the funnel-neck is taking over from the classic crew, boasting a bold, upright collar, which looks especially refined when paired with a collarless jacket.
