Five Classic Brown Jumper Outfits to Try This Year, According to a Fashion Editor

When it comes to wardrobe staples, it doesn’t get much more classic than a great jumper.

Whilst black is a classic choice, brown knitwear has dominated over the past few months, after chocolate brown was the hue to know about last year. Yes, you’d be hard-pressed to find a fashion lover who doesn’t have at least one brown knit on rotation right now, and for good reason—the simplicity of a brown jumper can create a world of outfit possibilities. It can be combined with pretty much anything, from slip skirts to jeans, ballet flats to kitten heels, and of course, all your favourite accessories.

But the versatility of a brown jumper doesn’t make it boring. Whether you go for something in cashmere, a chunky cable knit or a classic wool blend, the variety of options available feels endless, and there are so many ways to style them. I’ve been keeping a keen eye out for how our favourite fashion influencers are wearing brown jumpers this winter, and I’m delighted at the inspiration.
