The end of summer is bittersweet. As we stash away our swimsuits and beach bags, we welcome the many wonders of fall—changing leaves, autumn harvest, and, of course, sweater weather. Sweaters mark the onset of crisp autumn days, which makes shopping for new knitwear all the more exciting. Not to mention, a sweater is arguably the comfiest item of clothing you can wear outside of the house (c’mon, sweatpants don’t count), so you can never own too many.
So, if you’re looking to set the mood for the cooler days ahead, you come to the right place. We got a head start on shopping, and whether you are looking for a slouchy style to wear with skinny jeans, a chunky cardigan for lounging, or a classic cable knit with modern details, there are plenty of sweater options to choose from. You might even fall for a new trend, like off-the-shoulder or cutout knits. Scroll through some of our favorites sweaters for fall 2020 below.
