Knitwear has come a long way since the days of Val Doonican fitfully dozing through his Christmas shows in a 50s era woollen cardigan. Under the designers at fashion houses like Tommy Hilfiger and Henleys, todays' knitted jumpers, tops and (yes!) cardigans are far removed from the chunky cableknits of yore.
Instead, thin woven knitwear with classic styling like the horizontal hoop and discreet branding offers a classier and timeless alternative to the look-at-me styles created using synthetics. Knitwear is the choice for the man who really knows what he's after and isn't simply going to pay homage to colourful but short-lived trends.
