Gloves for winter is what a flowy dress is for summer and a classic trench for autumn: a wardrobe staple that becomes a dependence in your daily life. Especially unavoidably in the Nordics once the seasonal chill sets in.
Drawing inspiration from the autumn/winter '24 runway collections, here, we've narrowed down the wide world of gloves to the four styles to know – and invest in – right now.
Short leather gloves
A tried-and-true classic, the short leather glove arguably never goes out of trend. If chosen wisely and cared for correctly, the right glove from this category has the timeless power to survive for decades. The silhouette complements all cuff lengths, and a buckle or ruching detail at the wrist will keep your hands extra toasty.
Full length gloves
The long glove – with its elegant and exuberant qualities – is often closely associated with a night at the theatre, but don't underestimate how well the style works in our everyday lives. While the length will always complement your cocktail attire, it pairs beautifully under coat and shirt sleeves too.
Knitted gloves
While abroad, a leather glove might be enough, but in the Nordics – where we often hit below freezing temperatures – we truly appreciate a stylish rendition of the knitted glove. The style works just as well in the wilderness as in the city.
Mittens
Mittens are, for good reasons, the most popular gloves among children. The reason? They are the warmest style. This season we don't want to jeopardise style for comfort so we can made a selection of elegant and fashionable mittens to buy now.
