Don't Even *Consider* Wearing a Sweater Unless It's Part of These "Luxurious" Trends

Don't Even *Consider* Wearing a Sweater Unless It's Part of These "Luxurious" Trends

      Want to appear affluent? Then pay close attention to what follows. Sweater season has arrived, prompting us to revisit our knitwear selections and perhaps even shop for new styles. I appreciate a timeless plain sweater just as much as anyone else, but it's clear that the styles and shapes that will enhance the most luxurious-looking outfits for fall and winter 2025 revolve around a few specific sweater trends. And no, they aren't your typical crewneck designs.

      Four key sweater trends have emerged as significant styles to be aware of. From the fall 2025 runways to the social media feeds of the trendiest influencers, these trends are already dominating. Surprisingly, argyle is one of them, largely due to Khaite's endorsement. V-necks are also making a comeback this season in a modern twist featuring subtle high-V necklines. Fair Isle knits are embodying an après-ski aesthetic that transports you to the slopes of Gstaad or St. Moritz. Finally, polo sweaters are embracing the preppy style that's been gaining traction throughout the year. Here, discover the four most luxurious-looking sweater trends for fall 2025 and shop the best versions of each.

      **Argyle Sweaters**

      When I attended the Khaite show in February, I was taken aback by the presence of several argyle sweaters in the collection, but as is often the case with runway fashion, it wasn't until fall arrived six months later that the knits truly resonated. Now, I'm seeing the academic theme everywhere and I'm convinced it's one of the key sweater trends to recognize.

      Khaite

      Anders Argyle-Knit Cashmere-Blend Top

      I adore the combination of burgundy and light blue here.

      Reformation

      Cove Cashmere Oversized Crew

      This looks like a sweater I'd happily live in.

      ZARA

      Diamond Knit Polo Shirt

      The polo neckline adds to its charm.

      J.Crew

      Perfect Cashmere Crewneck Sweater in Argyle

      Gap

      Cashsoft Crop Cardigan

      Simple (and currently on sale).

      **High V-Neck Sweaters**

      Crewnecks are no longer the standard neckline. Fashion enthusiasts are instead opting for sweaters (and T-shirts and dresses, for that matter) with high V necklines. In my opinion, a high V-neck sweater is the easiest way to keep your fall outfits feeling contemporary. Extra points if layered over a white T-shirt.

      Gap

      Cashsoft Oversized V-Neck Sweater

      People rave about the quality of Gap's cashmere sweaters.

      Amiya

      Nevia V Neck Sweater

      The color, the shape, the ribbed hem—this sweater exemplifies why the new knitwear brand Amiya is one to watch.

      The way it cinches at the waist is so impressive I nearly stood up to applaud.

      AFLALO

      Elara Sweater in Cashmere

      The brand where all the stylish New Yorkers are getting their sweaters this season.

      EDIKTED

      Oversize V-Neck Sweater

      Nordstrom

      V-Neck Cashmere Sweater

      Nordstrom's cashmere truly stands out.

      ZARA

      100% Wool V-Neck Sweater

      What a clever styling idea!

      **Polo Sweaters**

      With preppy style making a strong comeback, polo sweaters are once again in the spotlight. Whether you choose a fitted polo knit top, a relaxed-fit piece, or a striped rugby polo, the collared silhouette instantly adds a touch of East Coast prep—along with a certain "old money" feel that looks incredibly luxurious.

      COS

      Cornflower Blue Sweater

      This blue hue is stunning.

      Leset

      Jesse Wool Polo Sweater

      How cute are those tiny buttons?

      Almina Concept

      Polo Wool Sweater

      If you know me, you know I'm a huge fan of Almina Concept sweaters.

      ZARA

      Plain Knit Polo Shirt

      The elongated buttons add a touch of sophistication.

      **Fair Isle Sweaters**

      Lastly, we have fair isle sweaters. Regardless of whether you ski, these knits will evoke the ultimate après-ski vibe, making you look like you just came from the slopes of Gstaad or St. Moritz. Designers like Altuzarra are giving the alpine style a fashionable twist, and we've already seen the style set embracing fair isle this season, indicating growing popularity as we approach the holidays.

      Reformation

      Fabian Crew Sweater

      Pair it with silk shorts or ivory trousers.

      Polo Ralph Lauren

      Fair Isle Wool Blend Cardigan

      I need to wear this in an upstate cabin ASAP.

      ZARA

      Short Sleeve Jacquard Knit Sweater

      I love how it's styled with a plaid skirt.

      Sezane sweaters always go viral around this time of year, and I have high hopes for this fair isle knit.
