From Our EIC: The Final Frontier of Fall Dressing

I don’t know a ton about this brand, but their stuff looks awesome across the board, and they very much seem to stand by their products, which is nice. The Dume Sweater looks extremely promising to me — it all comes down to fit, of course, but this seems like the kind of item you could wind up turning to day after day. And they say it gets better with age, so I’m all in.

Everyone needs a high-quality black sweater, and this cashmere number from NYC’s Corridor is a perfect option for anyone looking for a slouchier fit. Will you look as cool and disaffected as the models on their site? Here’s hoping.

Cardigans like this, which button all the way up to the top rather than having the normal v-shaped neck we associate with the style, are everywhere right now. Assuming you’re not willing to full-on Paul Mescal with something like this slutty little Celine version, J.Crew’s more reasonably priced option is probably a better way for you to test out the style.

I’ve always loved Donegal sweaters, and I’m happy to see them popping up more and more this season. They work as well with jeans and sneakers as they do with flannel trousers and a sportcoat, with the characteristic flecked wool providing just enough flare to make it interesting. At less than $200 each, I could see owning multiple colors.

Or, for the price of five of those from Todd Snyder, you could opt for this absolutely stunning statement piece from Uncle Ralph’s Americana-inspired RRL line. The beauty of having put together a solid collection of long-lasting basics is that when you don’t have to replace everything in your closet every year or two, taking the plunge on something like this isn’t so crazy.
