Marks and Spencer shoppers are rushing to buy a new Christmas jumper that has been described as a “stylish” take on the festive classic. The Fairisle Funnel Neck Christmas Jumper With Wool, priced at £36, is currently flagged as a top seller on the retailer's website.
Design and availability
The jumper features a timeless fairisle design with a trendy funnel neck. It comes in a pale grey shade with a wool blend fabric and a relaxed fit, making it a cosy and comfortable choice. Sizes range from extra small to extra large, with all sizes fully stocked at the time of writing.
Shoppers have given the jumper an overall rating of 4/5 stars. One pleased customer said: “Beautiful jumper that looks expensive, fits perfectly, excellent value.” Another added: “Glad I snapped this jumper up! Lovely neutral, it will go with skirts, jeans, trousers or leggings. Too nice to save for Christmas!”
Shopper feedback
A third reviewer commented: “A very good, stylish jumper. Lovely jumper, good sizing, but the yoke overlaps a little so it doesn't sit flat. Overall the jumper is good value for money.” However, one buyer deducted stars over the fit, writing: “The medium size I bought was far too big (I'm a 14/16) and had to exchange it for a small, which was annoying.”
Other Christmas jumpers currently available include the Blue Baroque Jacquard Knit Jumper for £56 at River Island and the Brown/Ecru Fairisle Christmas Long Sleeve Jumper for £39 at Next.
Other festive items at M&S
Christmas has also arrived in other parts of the M&S range. The Colin the Caterpillar Hanging Tree Decoration, priced at £8, has returned to shelves after selling out for the past two years running. Back by popular demand, along with the matching £8 Connie, the blown glass Colin is described as “life size” and is one of the retailer's most popular gifts.
The Marks and Spencer Flower Market has also launched its new Full Size Real Christmas Tree with Lights, priced at £150. With delivery available from Thursday, November 26, the tree comes complete with twinkling warm white lights and a sturdy stand for easy set up.
