The Loud Sweater

They're not the traditional Fair Isle patterns of classic intarsia sweaters. These are bold mixes of colors, patterns and hardware with a roguish, rakish bravado. Topping the season's standouts is this lambswool cardigan by Tommy Hilfiger—an apres ski intarsia pattern up top, Hudson's Bay blanket stripes on the bottom, with wooden toggles and a contrasting shawl collar. For something a bit less bold, Oliver Spencer and Gant Rugger offer more monochromatic takes. Too busy? Not if you keep the rest of your colors restrained and sophisticated.
