Over the past few years, there has been a growing appreciation for classic items that are resistant to fickle trend cycles. There are a number of factors that have contributed to this shift, including the collective drive to create a more timeless, hard-wearing wardrobe in order to slow down our consumption combined with rising prices, which means we are all wearing more practical and simpler outfits. Many of the cult buys for 2024 are actually items that have been hero purchases for decades and so will have a permanent place in your wardrobe.
One item, in particular, that is taking the high street by storm is monochrome striped jumpers. This is an item that will always be popular, and in particular, we love knits that combine cream and black and have a relaxed fit. Toteme is partly responsible for making us all fall in love with striped knits again thanks to its now cult jumper, which has wide sleeves, a high neck and a fine stripe. Unsurprisingly, this jumper, which has been adored by fashion circles, has created a huge demand for striped knits with a high-neck detail. High street brands such as Arket, & Other Stories and H&M have all got their own version of a collared or zip-front striped jumper, making this one of the most popular buy seasons after its initial release. Plus, it is the perfect layering knit for our changeable weather, don't you think?
Keep scrolling for ideas for how to wear yours, and shop our edit of the best striped jumpers for all budgets should you be in the market for one.
