Marks and Spencer shoppers are rushing to buy a £38 cardigan from the retailer's autumn range, which they say 'fits like a glove' and comes in two autumnal colours. The Faux Fur Collar Button Front Cardigan is available in grey marl or midnight navy, and features a detachable faux fur collar that M&S says 'adds a touch of glamour to your outfit.'
Design and availability
The cardigan, described as an ideal cold weather upgrade to 'jeans and a nice top,' boasts a slim design with ribbed trims in a smooth fabric. Available in sizes XS-XL, the knit has amassed an impressive overall review score of 4.4 out of five stars on Marks and Spencer's website.
The faux fur collar is detachable, allowing shoppers to switch to a more casual look by stowing the attachment away for another day.

One standout review praised its 'exceptional style,' with the writer commenting: "Great piece to my new winter wardrobe - lovely colour in the Midnight Blue and love the detachable collar."

Minor drawbacks and final thoughts
