Here are the best white sweaters you can wear long after Labor Day.

White Sweater

Just because it’s after Labor Day doesn’t mean that you have to give up on white. In fact, it might very well be just the time to embrace it.

While we love styling wide leg jeans, cream wool dresses, and more for all the chillier months of the year, a necessary indulgence is adding a few bright white sweaters to your seasonal knitwear collection.

Pro Tip 😎

A great white sweater is a true essential in any and every stylish woman’s closet.

You can throw it on in lieu of a white T-shirt with a simple pair of vintage jeans for daytime strolls, or choose a slimmer style tucked into a silk skirt for more dressy occasions.

Don a button-front closure for all of your layering needs, or turn some heads with colorful trim or embellished details as well. 

In chunky wool, super soft cashmere, lightweight cotton, and the like, we’ve rounded up quite the selection of white sweaters that you can wear long after summertime is over.

We’ve got cable knits, cardigan, oversized pullovers, and even some cropped knit jacket styles!

In other words, you might very well want to wear nothing but white sweaters until summer travels back around again.

Pro Tip

😎

White sweaters get, well, dirty.

Just like other white items in your closet, take care to clean them properly and look out for dingy tones that come from too much wear without a quick trip to the dry cleaner or toss into the laundry.

White sweaters are about to become your ultimate go-to for fall. Here’s to starting off the season with a classically chic must-have you’ll want to shop in multiples…ASAP.
