Having access to the goop fashion closet means being able to assess, IRL, the merits of each piece on our site. And our team—which includes editors, buyers, and stylists—is constantly discussing which ones really, truly, impress us, not just online but in person. This time of year, the talk turns to sweaters: We like to discuss silhouettes, debate who’s using the best yarns, and wax poetic about the small details that make a piece special, like the thickness of a collar or the femininity in a finely ribbed cuff.
In the end, we tend to be united in certain opinions, like who makes the best cardigan and whether the Ophelia is still worth the money (spoiler: It is). Below, those titles and more.
