How to style an oversized jumper
Oversized jumpers are the best companion on colder days, keeping you warm and cosy. Below are our tips for styling winter sweaters for women.
1. Tuck it in
2. Layer with a blouse
Smarten up your outfit with a button-down blouse underneath your oversized jumper. Choose a round or V-neck jumper so the blouse’s collar will pop out, creating texture and interest. Add jeans or tailored trousers and a pair of Chelsea boots for a smart-casual look.
3. Pair with wide-leg trousers

Thermolactyl is a lightweight yet warm fabric, providing great insulation during the colder months. Discover how to style thermal jumpers to create unique winter outfits.
1. Add a skirt
Pair your jumper with a skirt for a sophisticated look. Mix and match colours and fabrics to inject fun into your look. Dress the outfit up with heels for formal occasions, or keep things casual with boots or trainers.
2. Layer over midi dresses
Style your jumper over a midi dress for a go-to everyday look. A printed dress paired with a neutral jumper is ideal for casual days, creating contrast, texture and depth. This layered look is perfect all year round, especially during transitional weather.
3. Wear with jeans
Want to create a chic, effortless outfit? Jeans and a jumper is hard to beat. This all-time favourite pairing provides comfort and practicality without compromising style. Choose your favourite denim fit, whether skinny, slim or high-waist jeans, and let your personality shine through with accessories.
How to style a cardigan
Cardigans are another wardrobe must-have you can wear year-round. Button them up like a jumper for a cosy feel, or leave them unbuttoned to showcase your top underneath. Discover more styling tips below to get inspired.
1. Create casual looks with leggings
Whether lounging, running errands or meeting friends for coffee, leggings and cardigans are a winning combination. Dress up your outfit with knee boots and add a coat for warmth.

Tailored trousers are an easy way to add elegance to your outfit, especially when paired with a cardigan. Throw a blazer over your cardigan and finish the look with smart flats, or add trainers and a trench coat to keep things casual.
3. Throw on over maxi dresses
Cardigans are the perfect layer to throw on over maxi dresses, whatever the season. From chilly summer evenings to winter mornings, this is a sophisticated and practical combination. Play with fabrics to enhance your silhouette, and finish your look with canvas shoes for a casual summer look. Wear wedges or ankle boots on colder days and layer a coat for warmth.
