How To Wear The Chunky Cardigan Trend

We’re all happy to retire our heavy jumpers come spring, but a new season in the UK doesn’t guarantee you can sacrifice layering altogether. Enter the chunky cardigan, the stylish tool for when just a tee won’t quite cut it. From wrap designs to thick cable knit offerings, there’s a style for everyone – here’s how to give the look a cool update this season…

The Boxy Fit

From: ME+EM
Wear it: With high-waisted jeans to balance out the cropped proportion – a wide-leg nicely mirrors the style’s loose shape. Keep the edit deliberately spring-appropriate by adding a straw bag, espadrilles and floral accessories.

The Chunky Texture

From: & Other Stories
Wear it: Like a jumper, with buttons done up and either peekaboo lace or nothing underneath. Team with slides and a midi to avoid a wintery feel – this Stories one is a high street hero, whilst French label Rouje’s offerings are an investment worth making.

The Wrap One

From: Whistles
Wear it: Instead of a jacket for travelling days and city breaks. Just add comfy trainers and khakis for a nod to the trends in a comfortable way – perfect for a more grown-up spin on the cardigan look.
