Striped Split Hem Knit Jumper

The split hem is the detail that sets this jumper apart from a standard stripe knit. It lets the hem swing as you move, shifting the whole piece from straightforward weekend knitwear into something with a deliberate, editorial quality. The roll neck keeps things polished at the top, so the volume through the body reads as intentional rather than oversized. Worn as the model does here - with slim-cut leather-look trousers - the proportions balance precisely, the wide sleeves and relaxed body sitting cleanly against a narrow leg. For the office, tuck the front loosely into tailored wide-leg trousers and let the split hem do the talking. Come the weekend, it layers comfortably over a fitted long-sleeve top or under a long wool coat for a more considered approach to casual dressing. This is a piece that works hardest when the rest of the outfit is kept deliberately restrained.
