Jeans Look Chicest With Brown Cardigans—Shop the Best Here

If my wardrobe could talk, I imagine its first words would be a gentle scolding on my bad habit of reaching for the same black pieces day in and day out, and that it’s time I welcomed a little variation into the mix.
Anyone who knows me knows that I’m not one to dabble too much in colour—neutrals are classics for a reason. But even I have to admit that my devotion to all things black has gone a touch too far. Determined to stay true to my sleek, pared-back palette whilst introducing a subtle point of difference, I’ve found the perfect way to break the cycle. Inspired by the chicest dressers on the Instagram feed, this season I’m starting up a search for the perfect brown cardigan.
Taking cues from the chocolate-brown colour trend that’s been dominating this autumn, this knitwear staple feels like a natural evolution of my wardrobe. Near-black in depth and tone yet richer in warmth and dimension, a chic brown cardigan offers a seasonal upgrade that’s incredibly easy to wear.
From deep, indulgent chocolate hues to lighter cappuccino tones, brown knits bring an easy elegance to any outfit. Layer one over a white T-shirt for a refined take on comfort dressing, or wear it on its own for a subtly sultry feel. Whether paired with denim, tailored trousers or a simple midi skirt, this trend feels as elevated as it does easy to wear.
It’s no wonder that high-street and designer labels are tuning into this growing knitwear movement. Below, I’ve rounded up the best brown cardigans to shop now. Read on to discover my edit.
