“Reiss is not a brand to skip over when you’re looking for your next favourite knitted piece. Some brands add a smidge of cashmere or wool to the composition of their styles and whack a £200+ price tag on top, whereas with Reiss you really get what you pay for. The Elena jumper I’m wearing here, for example, is 95% wool and 5% cashmere. It’s out of stock now but there are a few similar shapes on site at the moment.”
