This week is definitely jumper weather, and now is a great time to invest in some staples to see you through the rest of the chilly months. Many retailers are running end-of-season sales, and Uniqlo shoppers can snap up one of its popular cashmere jumpers for less than £60.
The versatile jumper has been reduced by 25%, dropping the price from £79.90 to £59.90. While it’s still not cheap, considering it is made from 100% cashmere, we think it’s a great investment that should last for winters to come. For context, cashmere jumpers from other brands, such as Brora, can retail for hundreds of pounds, and even trusty high-street options like M&S’s Autograph pure cashmere styles are priced at £90 or more.
The jumper has a relaxed fit and a minimal design that makes it super-easy to style. It has a V-neck that’s perfect for layering with everything from polo shirts to collared shirts, and neat ribbing on the cuffs and hem.
It comes in a variety of shades and sizes range from XXS to XXL, but as it’s on sale, availability is varied across shades. Pink and lavender are both available in all sizes, and the next best availability is in light blue, navy and purple, which are available in all sizes except M. Black, beige and green are available in fewer sizes, but grey is out of stock.
The jumper is sleek enough to wear to the office with a pair of black trousers, but would also pair great with jeans and boots for a more casual look. It could also be dressed up with the right accessories, such as big earrings and a slip skirt, for an understated yet chic dinner outfit.
The jumper is popular with Uniqlo shoppers, who are praising it in online reviews for its value for money and quality. One shopper said: « These jumpers are the nicest, hard-wearing cashmere I have found. »
Another said: « No fashion faux pas possible with this very soft sweater, comfortable to wear, and compatible with all looks. »
A third shopper was very enthusiastic about their purchase, saying: « I recently purchased this cashmere sweater and I’m genuinely impressed with its quality. The material is incredibly soft, lightweight, and warm — exactly what you expect from good cashmere. It feels luxurious on the skin and doesn’t itch at all. The fit is flattering without being too tight, and the sweater keeps its shape well after wearing it several times.
« The craftsmanship is excellent, with neatly finished seams and no loose threads. Overall, this sweater is a perfect blend of comfort, elegance, and durability. It’s definitely worth the investment, and I can already tell it will be one of my favorite pieces in my wardrobe. »
The only drawback of this jumper is that since it’s made from 100% cashmere, it might be harder to take care of as it can’t be simply tossed in the washing machine.
