These 25 Cardis Definitely Aren’t Your Grandma’s

It’s no secret that we love sweaters during winter — chunky knits, turtlenecks, striped jumpers — you name it. But spring offers another glorious opportunity for knitwear as we trade in our heavier knits for lighter options that add that perfect finishing touch to a layered outfit (not to mention keep us warm on breezier spring days and are perfect for travel). The current style us R29ers have been turning to is: the cardigan.

Cardigans made a stylish comeback in 2022 when micro versions made headlines during New York Fashion Week. Designers like Maryam Nassir Zadeh and Kim Shui debuted tiny cardigans — the cousin to the viral pin tops — during their spring 2022 runways. As you can imagine, fashion enthusiasts and celebs ate it up — and they still are. Currently, these knitted bitties are hitting the streets in all colors and styles as a year round staple, you can see everyone from EmRata to Jennifer Lawrence wearing their cardigans around town. And this spring wardrobe staple will easily take you into next season — at the fall/winter 2024 shows, Ulla Johnson and Tibi used cardigans as capes.

From whimsical hues, funky patterns, and chunky knits to classic silhouettes, front-close knits are here to complement your spring fits. Don't worry; we still added a few of the beloved oversized and cable-knit styles for you to throw on. Here are 25 of the best cardigans around to get you started.

FALL INTRO:

It’s no secret that we love sweaters — chunky knits, turtlenecks, striped jumpers — you name it. Can you blame us? There’s nothing better than a cozy knit top to snuggle in while you venture out in the brisk outdoors. But if we have one tiny little complaint about the state of knitwear, it’s this: Every style looks the same as those from years past. Sweaters can get repetitive. However, one silhouette that has been upgraded in the past few years is cardigans. "My unraveling chunky cardigan," you ask? Not exactly. The best cardigan in your wardrobe has yet to come.

Cardigans started to make a stylish comeback in fall 2022 when micro versions made headlines during New York Fashion Week. Designers like Maryam Nassir Zadeh and Kim Shui debuted tiny cardigans — the cousin to the viral pin tops — during their spring 2022 runways. As you can imagine, fashion enthusiasts and celebs ate it up. While the itty-bitty, thin cardigan is still floating along, many are opting for warmer, more sustainable options in 2024-ready designs.

From whimsical hues, funky patterns, and chunky knits to classic silhouettes, front-close knits are here to spice up your cool-weather ensembles. Don't worry; we still added a few of the beloved oversized and cable-knit styles for you to throw on while listening to T Swift's "Cardigan." Here are 21 of the best cardigans around to get you started.
