The buyer's brief

How to choose

What we weigh before a piece of designer knitwear earns a place in this edit.

01

Directional or everyday

Miu Miu leans fashion-led. Maje and Sandro are the Parisian everyday options. Burberry is the luxury investment knit.

02

Where to start

A fine jumper or cardigan from Maje or Sandro is the most versatile first buy. Add a directional or luxury piece after that.

03

Fibre

Wool and cashmere give the most warmth and last longest. Cotton blends are lighter for layering in milder weather.

04

Budget

Maje and Sandro sit at the contemporary price. Burberry is the luxury end, Miu Miu the fashion-led investment.

05

Care

Most designer knits wash cool or by hand and lay flat to dry. Always check the care label, since wool needs gentler washing.

Good to know

Answered

Burberry wool and cashmere knits hold their look and value best as luxury pieces, while Maje and Sandro give strong everyday value at a contemporary price.
