Sunlit Stripes

If your mum and your best mate got together and designed a jumper for you, this would be it. Sunlit Stripes, is that fashion-forward comfort food of knitwear. That jumper that’s always there for you. When you’re at home scoffing chocolate cake, or in the office actually working. Don’t think oversized means overweight. What we’ve got here is a knit that says confidence. It’s for those who want to stride into the room and say ‘I am my own person’. A person with style who understands that fashion transcends size.

This is not just fashion with a capital F, it’s also comfort with a capital C! Long roomy sleeves mean you can finally bring your hands up into your sleeves and use them as boxing gloves when irritated at work colleagues, children or partners. Or if you’re like me, eat more slices of that chocolate cake and keep it a secret from the cat.

Sunlit Stripes has horizontal stripes - bold blocky ones in the main body, and smaller runways on the drop shoulder arms - finishing with a lovely ribbed cuff detail that says ‘this is quality’. The body and sleeves are finished with broad ribbed cuffs and a thick ribbed hemline, giving it that classic well structured silhouette.

A wide round neckline means you can pop it on over another turtleneck or scoop neck. This is also layering friendly - meaning you can wrap yourself in five other garments underneath if cold weather has you running for the nearest fireplace.

But what really adds that element of design genius are the vivid lines at the start of the armholes and again just above the hemline at front and back. These clearly demarcate intention. Here is where fashion meets flair. There’s enough stretch to accentuate this baby’s laidback appeal, but enough structure to show off its contemporary edge.

Machine wash cold and tumble dry low means you don’t need to worry about drycleaning costs which leaves more money for cake.
