A personal favourite, this Isabel Marant sweater is a bold reinvention of the traditional Christmas sweater. Its structure is unique, complemented by a bold cable-knit pattern and long puff sleeves. The bright geometric pattern at its centre is eye-catching, but serves as a cohesive median for all the stitches that have been incorporated into this wool jumper. 

 

9. Alice + Olivia

Bright colours and geometric prints are more or less the norm when it comes to Christmas sweaters. For something with a little edge, go for Alice + Olivia's cut out shoulder turtleneck. It features a Fair Isle print but with a fun, feminine twist – peekaboo shoulders. 

10. Monse
