We’ll be wearing these stylish jumpers all winter long
Warm, luxurious and effortlessly chic, the best women's jumpers can elevate an outfit in seconds. In fact, the humble knit has had a high-fashion makeover in recent years, with standout styles detailed with metallic threads, blanket-stitch hems, and sleek, second-skin fits.
And don't think that knitwear is just for daytime. Some of the jumper styles in our edit would look great with evening looks too, from slip skirts to leather trousers.
If you're all about relaxed looks, go for something oversized rather than clingy – slouchy knits will uniform WFH days as well as weekend walks. Or, if the word jumper for you equals 'basics', it'd be wise to stock up on all of the timeless knitwear essentials like crew and V-necks; they'll never date and they make great workwear, too.
Wondering which style you should go for? You can probably guess what we're going to say next: you'll be needing more than one. Capsule wardrobe devotees can whittle it down to a turtleneck in a lightweight gauge for layering, then something chunkier for casual looks.
With the British weather being what it is, you'll need some trusty wool and cashmere knits in your capsule wardrobe, to layer up on chillier days and nights. Here, we run through all the key knitwear styles to know in our round-up of the best women's jumpers to shop now for winter and wear well into spring...
Nina Merino Wool Crew Jumper
This cream-coloured jumper offers maximum style mileage thanks to its versatile hue and classic crew-neck fit. Better still, it's cut from 100% merino wool and at a price tag just shy of £100, who could possibly resist? Style yours with longline leather shorts and knee-high boots for a directional take.
Fair Isle Merino Wool Jumper
A modern twist on the traditional Fair Isle style, COS’s vibrant printed jumper reminds us of a festive peppermint sweet. Style half-tucked into jeans or tailored trousers to enliven your everyday looks.
Pure Cashmere Turtleneck Jumper
This classic, navy-blue jumper is cut from luxurious 100% cashmere that's certified by the Good Cashmere Standard. The oversized, slouchy fit is effortlessly cool, and it's ideal for layering over inky denim or paired with a rich jewel-tone palette.
The Heirloom Funnel
Locally-made in the British Isles from 100% lambswool, this cocooning knit comes in a chunky stitch and boxy fit that's inspired by a traditional fisherman's jumper. Crafted to be a modern heirloom and last for years to come, the rich carmine-red hue is so on-trend.
Jacquard-knit jumper
Our e-commerce editor recently visited the H&M showroom and was instantly drawn to this understated Fair Isle jumper. Wear it over maxi dresses and dark-wash denim.
Cashmere Crew Neck Jumper
You can always count on Uniqlo for premium wardrobe staples at an accessible price. This pretty, pale pink jumper is guaranteed to be your everyday knit. It's cut from 100% cashmere in a fine, slinky finish that's lightweight while being cosy and warm. Style yours with grey, tailored trousers for a fresh antithesis to winter's sombre palette.
Wyre Jumper in Ecru
A versatile knit with a romantic feel, this Wyre jumper is a defining piece from Herd's debut collection. The quintessentially British brand uses sustainably-sourced sheep's wool grown in the northwest of England, which is dyed using plant extracts. The fit is the perfect length for tucking into trousers or jeans, and features raglan shoulders, subtle bell sleeves, and a pretty scalloped edge on the hem and cuffs.
Cloud Cashmere Eldon Jumper
Jigsaw's signature cloud cashmere is ultra-lightweight while being sumptuously warm. This 'Eldon' style features a chic, rolled edge and fluted, ribbed cuff detail for a directional design that's also minimal and timeless. We love this grey hue that pairs well with lightwash denim, wide-leg trousers, or a tonal wool maxi skirt.
Cricket Style Cable V Neck Jumper
Tenniscore might have faded away with the summer sun, but varsity style is still very much on the fashion agenda. We love this cashmere, Cricket-inspired cable-knit for a grown-up, collegiate look. Either wear on its own with a pleated midi skirt and glossy boots, or layer over your favourite white shirt for added warmth.
Cashmere-Blend Turtleneck Jumper
In Pantone's colour of 2025, Mocha Mousse, & Other Stories’ cashmere knit feels perfect for winter. The relaxed fit makes it ideal for tucking into wide-leg jeans and adding into your weekly rotation of workwear.
Eva Boat Neck Blouson Sleeve Jumper
Cefinn's Eva jumper is so beautifully cut, with a retro boat neck and bishop sleeves. The ribbed wool is super flattering: figure-hugging but not uncomfortably tight.
Hollie Jumper
Sézane is top of our list for great knitwear. This pretty Hollie jumper is knitted with wisps of mohair to create a beautiful fluffy texture, and finished with gold polka dot details to highlight the pink foliage print.
