How to Choose the Perfect Sweater for Every Occasion

Desk day, weekend errands, or a countryside walk — different moments call for different knits. Here’s our guide to choosing a sweater that feels effortless, comfortable and right for the occasion.

For the office

Choose a refined knit in a clean, relaxed silhouette. Pair it with tailored trousers or layer it with a blazer for an effortless look that feels polished without being overly formal.
