Marks & Spencer’s Striped Jumpers Are the Best Around

While I don’t spend frivolously (my pickiness precedes me and is well-documented in my bi-weekly column), the one item I find hard to resist is striped jumpers. An aspect of their appeal lies in their French roots—Breton stripes aren’t as cliché as you might think; in Paris, they’re favoured by many impeccable dressers. They’re also incredibly versatile and can be thrown on with just about piece and print. Stick to monochrome palettes, and they practically come with a lifetime style guarantee, one that you can match with any other colour.

This brings me to my point: Marks & Spencer, which is tempting me with its edit of excellent striped jumpers right now. Scrolling its new arrivals category this morning, the sheer volume of striped jumpers on offer was staggering. Clearly, they’re a hit for the brand this season, and I can see why. Aside from the factors I’ve laid out above, striped jumpers are having a particular moment right now, as so many influencers are keeping toasty in them, too.

Assuming you’re as obsessed with striped jumpers as I am, I’ve assembled the very best from Marks & Spencer below. Come see.
