  It’s hard to imagine a time before the roll neck’s comeback - what did we do without this trusty dress-up or -down workhorse in our wardrobes? Worn off-duty or on more special occasions, in lightweight cotton or warming wool, the roll neck remained a firm fixture at January’s me Collections: Men showcase.

Not unlike the Kenzo sweatshirt phenomenon a few seasons back, AW15 heralds patterned jumpers as the new standout pieces. But, a word of warning – the hint is in the adjective here: a ‘statement’ sweater should always be treated as such, so balance out the eccentricity with pared-back garments in neutral hues to let your graphic knit take centre stage.
