Read more about this collection Hide this — show me the jumpers
Colour is the first thing anybody decides about a Christmas jumper, usually before they have thought about the design at all. Red is the obvious one and the biggest list here — it is the colour people picture when they picture a Christmas jumper, and it photographs well, which matters more than it should in December.
Black is the quiet favourite. It is what people buy when they have to go to the office party and would rather not look like they have tried too hard, and it carries a fair isle pattern better than anything else. Grey does a similar job with less commitment.
Blue and green are the ones worth knowing about if you would rather not match everyone else in the room, and white is the risk — it looks wonderful and it is a jumper you will be wearing while eating.
