French slogan jumpers
Bonjour, sexy new knitwear! These chic slogan jumpers are guaranteed to add a little je ne sais quoi to any ensemble - we adore.
With spring finally arriving (well, just about), here’s the perfect transitional piece for your wardrobe. The French slogan jumper has been a feature of our must-buy list since Bella Freud first released her signature collection. Now there are loads more affordable options all over the high street. This knit-with-attitude adds a little Gallic insouciance to any outfit, making a scruffy bun and gym trainers look chic (croissant in hand optional). Voilà.
Bella Freud
The original and best (albeit spendy), Bella Freud’s cashmere Je t’aime Jane sweater is the design that launched a thousand homages. This one’s dedicated to Jane Birkin so you will be as chic as her if you wear it (probably).
£410
Warehouse
Warehouse is a bonafide high street hero right now. Case in point: this Merci design. If the red is de trop for you, it also comes in navy (a Muddy staffer is wearing that one as I write) and baby pink.
£36
Ille de Cocos
If you’ve not heard of this indie knitwear brand, get them on your radar tout suite. Founder Deola Charles was inspired by the mega-chilled Cocos Island in the Pacific and cool-girl London style. We reckon she’s nailed it with this slim-fit cashmere beauty.
£110
Hush
No hiding in this fabulous fuschia sweat from hush. Pair it with jeans now, then throw it over a slinky slip dress on summer evenings.
£55
M&S
Très bon, M&S, we’re impressed. This sweatshirt looks right up our alley for a little Sunday lounging - plus it’s cheap as frites.
