A new season calls for a fresh knitwear reset. With March already halfway through (how?!), layering is officially second nature. The key? A lineup of versatile, well-balanced knits that move with you—light layers for now, cosy staples for later.
This season, knitwear goes beyond the basics. Rich chocolate tones, deep wine hues, and icy blues are making their mark, adding depth and sophistication to a wardrobe built on timeless neutrals like taupe, oat, and sandy tones.
Whether you’re layering a statement knit over a slip dress or reaching for a classic ribbed staple, the right knitwear pieces will see you through every season (and occasion) in style.

Statement Knitwear: Why You Need a Bold Pop of Colour
Knitwear doesn’t have to be neutral—cherry red and lilac are two of the season’s biggest trends, and they’re here to bless your wardrobe with colour! Nothing lifts an outfit like a statement knit—throw it on, and suddenly, your everyday looks feel fresh.
A cherry red knit is bold and confident, while lilac brings a soft, modern edge. The easiest way to switch up your look in an instant.
How to style it:
- Pair a cherry red knit with denim for a bold but effortless off-duty look.
- Layer a lilac knit over a slip dress or with tailored trousers for a fresh outfit.
- Keep the rest of your outfit simple—think classic accessories, neutral footwear, and minimalist layering pieces.
When to wear it: Coffee runs, weekend brunch, workdays that need a little colour boost.
Everyday Knitwear: Lightweight Layers You’ll Wear on Repeat
No knitwear wardrobe is complete without lightweight, effortless layers that work with everything. Fine knits, ribbed textures, and soft-touch fabrics create the ultimate transitional pieces—perfect for wearing solo on warmer days or layering under jackets and coats as temperatures drop. These are the styles you’ll reach for on repeat, forming the foundation of a versatile, go-anywhere wardrobe.
How to style it:
Tuck a ribbed knit top into a structured midi skirt for an effortless work-to-weekend look.
Throw a lightweight knit cardigan over a tank and jeans for an easy layering moment.
For early autumn, pair a fine knit sweater with relaxed tailored pants and loafers.
When to wear it: Workdays, casual weekends, layering for transitional weather.
From Office to Off-Duty: How to Style Knitwear for Every Occasion
The best knits are the ones that seamlessly take you from day to night, desk to dinner. Whether it’s a fitted knit top under a blazer or an oversized knit styled effortlessly for the weekend, having versatile options means never second-guessing your outfit.
Choosing classic silhouettes with modern detailing—like a structured knit with slight stretch or an oversized sweater with a refined neckline—ensures your knitwear can be styled effortlessly for different occasions.
Pair chocolate or deep burgundy knitwear with matching tailored pants or layer them under a luxe trench coat for a refined but cosy feel.
How to style it:
- For work: A chic knit under a blazer, paired with tailored trousers and boots.
- For off-duty: Wear your favourite knit with wide-leg jeans, and add a crossbody bag.
- For evenings: Style a boldly-coloured knit over a slip dress with heels.
When to wear it: Meetings, weekend outings, dinner plans that come up last minute.
