The Best Sweaters To Rock 2023 (Women)

Without at least one reliable sweater, no wardrobe is complete. One that will last for years while remaining fashionable. However, with so many options, it can be difficult to choose.

A quality sweater is one of the most practical articles of clothing to stack in your closet, serving as a lovely piece for casualwear, a go-to for weekend potlucks, and a regular feature to pair with flannel pants.

Sweaters are a fall/winter wardrobe staple for one simple reason: they are easy to style.

For example, for a casual look, hurl on a lose fitting jumper over a long dress, or simply choose a graphic option paired with jeans and boots, and you're ready to go.

So, to assist, we combed through our archives and interviewed fashionable women, including designers, stylists, and even our own writers. We gathered quite the cute and cozy collection, ranging from Alexander McQueen jumpers and Loewe logo sweaters to Balmain ribbed knits and Stella McCartney's smile sweater. Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue have a plethora of options for affordable, warm fabrics that you'll want to wear all winter.
