In my opinion, the move from winter to spring calls for one thing in particular—clever knitwear. When we're no longer bound to our thick wool coats but not yet ready to move onto T-shirts and breezy blouses, a lighter knit is the perfect solution for those late-winter and early-spring days. Whilst I'll always sing the praises of a classic wool jumper, as it gets a little warmer I'm looking to show some love to my cardigan collection. Worn buttoned up, partially undone or left unbuttoned, a cardigan offers the styling (and temperature) versatility that a winter-to-spring wardrobe calls for.
Monikh Dale wears Sézane's Gaspard Cardigan (£95).
Whilst so many brands are coming up with chic and wearable designs, my attention keeps coming back to Sézane, a name adored by French women. With a cardigan collection that comprises everything from sleek, lightweight knits to chunky, cosy styles and a great variety of colour choices, it's a French favourite for good reason.
