Maxi cardigans, oversized jumpers, roll-necks and glam knits: the Dream Shop guide to knitwear that keeps you warm, dresses you up and sets the trend, from size 34 to XXL.
When temperatures drop, there's one piece we all pull out of the wardrobe first: the jumper. But the knitwear of 2026 has nothing to do with the dreary pullover of the past. This year's autumn 2026 jumpers and cardigans are oversized, textured, romantic, sometimes sparkling: pieces that make the look on their own, even when it's already cold outside.
If you're looking for on-trend women's jumpers or wondering how to style a cardigan without looking weighed down, you're in the right place. We've selected the styles performing best in our women's jumpers collection, from high-neck oversized jumpers to the softest sweatshirts and jumpers, by way of the knit dresses and sets that sort your outfit in a minute.
Before you choose, three rules that apply to all knitwear. First: check the composition, because wool-blend and cashmere are warmer and hold their shape, while cotton is cooler and suited to the still-mild days of September and October. Second: think about volume, alternating a roomy piece with a fitted one so you don't lose the silhouette. Third: invest in neutral colours (black, cream, camel, grey) and add just one statement piece at a time, for example a cardigan with rhinestones or a leopard-print jumper.
We'll walk you through five families of pieces, with practical styling tips, and tell you where to find each one: free shipping over €100, payment in 3 interest-free instalments with Klarna and sizes from 34 to XXL.

Maxi cardigans: autumn's do-it-all piece
If we had to pick just one, it would be this: the maxi cardigan. Open or buttoned up, mid-thigh length or longer, it replaces the jacket on mid-season days and becomes a proper lightweight coat when you pair it with a roll-neck. The golden rule is to play with volume: if the cardigan is roomy, choose something fitted underneath, like a ribbed vest top or a smooth-fabric top.
This year's trend is the cardigan with a detail: faux-fur trims, jewelled buttons, pearls, balloon sleeves. A style like the Ogrisd faux-fur cardigan turns plain jeans and ankle boots into a date-night outfit, while the Shoulderbow cardigan with its bow and puff sleeve is perfect for anyone who loves the romantic look. For straight or high-waisted jeans, take a look at our jeans collection.
Open maxi cardigan with balloon sleeves: wear it over everything, from jeans to a mini dress, and in an instant it adds volume and style to the look. A soft one-size fit that wears comfortably.

To finish the look choose a pair of ankle boots or some women's boots and a scarf from our scarves and hats collection. If you prefer something more structured, take a look at the blazers and women's jackets too.
Oversized maxi jumpers: comfort that looks like a statement
The maxi jumper is the long jumper you wear like a mini dress: team it with opaque tights and boots, or with skinny jeans for a right-proportions effect. High neck, side slits, chunky or pom-pom knit: in 2026 the oversized jumper is made to be seen, not hidden.
The styling tip is simple: if the maxi jumper comes above the knee, choose sheer hosiery or tights and a mid heel; if it's shorter, pair it with flared trousers or a long skirt. Styles like the Bonbon maxi jumper with its pom-pom knit or the Tamarha cashmere maxi jumper with slits are perfect for anyone who wants warmth and shape together. You'll find all the styles in the knits and maxi knits section too.

The maxi jumper always calls for a statement shoe: take a look at the women's lace-up boots or the trainers if you want a more street look. For your legs, the tights and hosiery make the difference.
Roll-necks and basic jumpers: the base that saves every outfit
Every autumn wardrobe needs a solid base, and the roll-neck is the piece that never lets you down. Fitted or soft, in cotton, wool or cashmere, it slips under a blazer, a slip dress or a padded gilet. The high neck keeps you warm, lengthens the figure and instantly gives a polished air.
The secret to wearing it well is to choose two or three neutral colours (black, cream, camel) and alternate textures: ribbing, fine knit, lamé for the evening. The Lamé roll-neck is the clever choice to turn jeans into an aperitivo look, while the ribbed roll-neck in wool-blend, under €20, is the piece to buy in several colours. If you're after something more refined, the Elanha wool jumper with its V-neckline is a little gem.
Cashmere-style high-neck jumper, soft and warm, perfect on its own or under a coat. An evergreen to own in several shades.

Pair your roll-necks with high-waisted trousers or a long skirt, then add a coat from the coats and capes section. For an even wider base, discover the women's tops and knits too.
Romantic knitwear: hearts, bows, lace and rhinestones
If you love the sweet side of fashion, romantic knitwear is your zone. Appliqué hearts, sequin bows, tulle and lace inserts, sparkling stones: decorated jumpers are the answer to the need for a bit of glam even when the sky is grey. And the beauty is they work with anything, because they're the statement piece of the look.
To avoid weighing the outfit down, let the jumper take centre stage and keep the rest simple: plain jeans or a plain mini are enough. The Heart & rhinestone cardigan is perfect for the day, the Alvy cobweb jumper with tulle inserts is a sensual choice for the evening, while the sequin-bow jumpers bring a party touch. For the sparkly mood, explore the Sparkly, rhinestones and lurex collection and the romantic lace and trims.

Knit dresses and sets: the outfit done in a minute
When you don't have the time (or the energy) to think about what to pair, knit dresses and coordinated sets are the answer. A dress with a high neck and belt becomes a complete look with a pair of boots; a roll-neck-and-flared-trouser set gets you out of the door in three minutes looking impeccable.
In 2026 knit sets are worn well beyond the living room: they're smart enough for the office, comfortable for a weekend, right for an aperitivo too. The Patrissia knit set with flared trousers is the most requested piece, the Lucya knit dress with puff detail and belt is perfect for anyone who loves a defined silhouette. You'll find all the options in knit dresses and sets and in sets, suits and co-ords.
Roll-neck and flared trousers in soft knit: a co-ord that's already a whole outfit, comfortable and ultra-feminine.

Frequently asked questions about jumpers and cardigans
Which jumpers are on trend in autumn 2026?
The most requested styles are high-neck oversized jumpers, maxi cardigans with jewelled buttons or faux-fur trims, wool-blend roll-necks and knitwear decorated with hearts, bows and rhinestones. You'll find all the new arrivals in Dream Shop's women's jumpers collection.
How do you style a long cardigan?
Balance the volume: under a long cardigan choose a fitted piece, like a ribbed top or a slim roll-neck, with straight jeans or leggings. Finish with ankle boots or boots. A good starting point is the Lopra maxi cardigan.
How do you wear a maxi jumper without looking weighed down?
If the maxi jumper is very roomy, show your legs with tights and a heel or with high boots. For a more casual look pair it with leggings and trainers. The Lorena maxi jumper works well both ways.
What's the difference between a jumper, a pullover and a maxi jumper?
Jumper and pullover are synonyms for a knitted piece you pull over your head. The maxi jumper is the long, oversized version, often worn as a mini dress, while the roll-neck has a high, close-fitting collar.
How do you wash jumpers without ruining them?
Always read the label: wool-blend or cashmere jumpers should generally be hand-washed in cold water or on a delicate cycle, dried flat and never wrung out. For a soft piece like the Kredia jumper it's the safest choice.
How much do Dream Shop jumpers cost and how do you pay?
Jumpers start from under €20 (like the ribbed roll-neck) and the more elaborate styles come in around €70. Shipping is free over €100 per order and you can pay in 3 interest-free instalments with Klarna. Sizes run from 34 to XXL and returns are possible within 14 days.
