Rykielsweaters

Warmer weather may be just around the corner for most of us, but that doesn't rule out the room for stylish knitwear in your retro wardrobe just yet. Especially when we're talking about items as stylish as these Retro Sweaters from Sonia by Sonia Rykiel.

The skinny knit tops both start with a slim and feminine silhouette, with a classic crew neck to finish. But it's the subtle addition of fifties motifs that makes these stand out, borrowing from 50s tattoo imagery with both the cherry and anchor emblems. Ideal for a more relaxed nod to retro style, these jumpers are the sort of item you'll wear with everything.

Available now from Matches Fashion in the UK, they're both priced at £208, with the striped option in two colour choices.

Spotty Jumper from H! by Henry Holland

Henryhollandjumper

It's no secret that British designer Henry Holland's biggest inspiration has long been the eighties aesthetic, a trend that's just as prevalent in his line for Debenhams as in his high fashion designs. This Spotty Jumper from H! by Henry Holland provides an easy to wear look with undeniable 80s credentials.

The oversized, longline cut of the knitwear creates a great retro silhouette, while the scoop neck prevents the look from being unfeminine. The large polka dot pattern also nods to the eighties' love of fifties reinterpretation, while the choices of a primary colour palette provide the bright and bold finishing touch.

It's available now from Debenhams for £35.

A real period piece, remade for the modern market – The Club Sweater.

It's described as a 'homage to 1950s motorcycle style', authentically based on the kind of tops worn onh bikes in the middle of the last century. Available in two colour schemes (the more plain ecru and black is above), both are made of 100 per cent Merino wool and constructed in Italy. They're also described as 'winter warm and summer cool'. We say they're cool all-year round.
