As the last of the September heatwave seeps away one thing is on my mind: cosy autumn days. With crisp mornings and a flurry of showers about to set in, I’m romanticising the shift in seasons, daydreaming about grey days bundled up in soft knitwear, a coffee in hand as the rain does its best to declare that autumn has arrived.
The chilly winds at the start of the month clearly marked the shift in seasons, and I found myself quickly scrambling to assemble to outline of an autumn capsule wardrobe. My trench coat was swiftly unpacked, and wool staples returned to pride of place at the front of my closet. But as knitwear goes, my selection is lacking, and now is prime time to add something truly special to the mix. Enter the COS Chunky Pure Cashmere Jumper.
As an editor, I’m consistently scanning with shopping inspiration from our reader’s personal selections to the stylish team around me, as well as daily scrolling through the new-in sections of both high street and designer brands. So when one piece is both a Who What Wear UK reader favourite and features on our editor’s personal wish lists, its time to take note.
Known for a focus on quality fabrics and timeless design, it’s no surprise that I’m turning to COS for my latest knitwear buy. Taking both elements, the Chunky Pure Cashmere Jumper features a classic crew-neck shape with ribbed detailing on the collar and cuffs. Void of frills or emblems, the style is understated and pared-back, allowing the premium fabric and versatile shades to be the focal point. The style is made from sumptuous GCS-certified cashmere, ready to cocoon you through the chillier seasons, and currently comes in two timeless shades—grey and black.
The piece is more of an investment, coming in at £225, but assures longevity in the anti-trend design and high-quality fabric of 100% pure cashmere. If you’re looking for a luxurious addition to your knitwear, cashmere is the way to go. Alongside, there’s a turtleneck version that has also seriously piqued my interest. Paired with tailoring, denim, skirts or even thrown over your shoulders, this is a jumper you’ll wear on repeat.
