An argyle knit is the perfect way to enliven your look this season

Spoiler alert: argyle is huge news right now, and we don’t just mean on the golf course. A tartan originating from Argyll in western Scotland, the diamond-shaped design was spotted at the likes of Altuzarra and Khaite this season, immediately sparking a major street-style trend with plenty of characterful interpretations worn by tastemakers at the spring/summer ’26 shows. The beauty of an argyle knit is that it works with all your favorite wardrobe staples, from denim to tailoring, and it’s timeless to boot. Invest in your favorite now, and we guarantee you’ll be wearing it for years to come.

Inspired by the cinematic world of David Lynch – very Twin Peaks coded – Khaite’s ‘Anders’ sweater is spun from the finest cashmere and mohair, and has elegant elbow-length sleeves. Embrace winter layering by wearing a shearling jacket over it, or dress it up with leather pants and a kitten heel for evening. Alternatively, choose something a bit slouchier, like Arch4’s ‘Chapman’ sweater in impossibly soft cashmere (a NET-A-PORTER exclusive) or &Daughter’s cozy wool version – both highlights from our NET SUSTAIN edit. Wear them with wide-leg jeans and chunky ankle boots on low-key weekends, or style them with tailored pants and loafers for the office.
