I’ve been scrolling through pages and pages of new fall merchandise recently while doing research for various market stories. One common thread I’ve seen throughout many sites is the vast offering of striking sweaters. Sure, those more basic knits are certainly present given their timeless and classic nature, but it’s those particularly unique pullovers and cardigans that seem to be entering the spotlight as well. Here, I’m talking about everything from silhouettes in forward shapes (like with balloon sleeves) to styles featuring trendy details like vintage collars. Honestly, these picks are kind of giving my plain sweaters a run for their money.
Naturally, I wanted to share some of my findings with you. So with that, there are 25 A+ sweater styles waiting for you below. Oh, I also should’ve mentioned that everything I found also skews on the more affordable side under $100.
Keep scrolling to uncover a sweater that could very well become a permanent fixture in your autumn and winter rotation.
