Claudia Winkleman’s cable knit green jumper from The Traitors has sold out already but there are so many ways to recreate this cosy winter look.
With the colder weather now fully setting in this winter, knitwear is the way to go and so many of us will be reaching for our best cream jumpers or black roll necks as neutral options often reign supreme. However, Claudia Winkleman’s green jumper on The Traitors season 2 just made an excellent case for going for something a little more statement, but still equally versatile in 2024. Her gorgeous menswear green knit from Japanese brand Kapital, featuring statement smiley face elbow details, made an appearance in episode 2 of The Traitors series 2 and since the episode aired it’s made quite the impression.
