GO GRAPHIC: STATEMENT SWEATERS!

 Fashionspam's Winter Favourite!

Balancing a playful sensibility with a grown-up silhouette, this Jil Sander dinosaur intarsia sweater reflects the blend of youthful and subervise energy that characterised the label's FW12 collection. The knitted camel and wool-blend fabric has a homely feel which is starkly contrasted by the colours and sharp design. Take a styling tip from the catwalk show and wear this piece over a white shirt and black tailored trousers.Shown here with a Paul Smith shirt and trousers, Alexander McQueen boots and a Drake's tie.



Inspired by traditional Navajo patterns, this YMC sweater is a contemporary autumn essential. It has been knitted in sharp shades of grey and searing orange from soft lambswool for comfort and warmth on crisp mornings. Layer this rustic piece under a waxed-cotton jacket and add some leather boots for rugged appeal. Shown here with an Aubin & Wills gilet, A.P.C. shirt and shoes, and Edwin jeans.
