Sweater weather klaxon! At the time of writing, coat weather did not look to be approaching with any immediate urgency. Instead, it’s time to focus on knitwear to bridge the gap between seasons. Half-zip knits have had a steady climb in popularity in the last year. This athleisure staple was seen at Loewe SS24 (below) and a few seasons ago on the runways at JW Anderson and Alaïa, and spotted as a recurring sweater at Isabel Marant. It has the right amount of detail to stand apart from a plain sweater. And can, surprisingly, be styled in many different ways and layered to continue wearing when we do hit single-digit weather.
