Words

Pile is everywhere among the Japanese brands this season. From hoodies to track pants to chukkas, it seems nothing has escapred the fabric. While the Name. brand gets an honourable mention for the best use of pile, my favourite piece actually comes from Mountain Research. This cardigan is the perfect style and cut to offset the traditionally frumpy fabric.

Words

It's hard to beat mohair as a winter fabric. On top of actually keeping you warm, nothing says, 'I'm really warm', like yeti length fibers shooting off your body in all directions. Pair that effect with Rothko like colour blocking and you have this amazing piece here.
