If you’re a fashion fan you’ve probably already seen that big, chunky sweaters and sweater vests are all the rage this fall. But big and chunky doesn’t have to mean frumpy. It can also mean fun! Rowing Blazers just launched it’s Fall 2021 collection which is full of “grandamore” aesthetic with the accompanying campaign starring none other than comedians Pete Davidson and Ziwe wearing the brand’s colorful pieces including the iconic sheep-patterned knit first worn by Princess Diana in the 1980’s.

The brand is teaming up with Warm & Wonderful again this year to offer it’s signature black-sheep print in new colors of Primrose Hill Pink and Bowie Blue to expand on the existing collection of Diana Red and Original Green.

Warm & Wonderful is also adding accessories, loungewear, and homeware to the collection in a range of sizes and price points. Whether you’re looking for something for yourself, or for a gift for that Princess Di fan on your holidays shopping lists this year, you’ll find something in this festive collection.

Founded by Sally Muir and Joanna Osborne in 1979, Warm & Wonderful first appeared at a market stall in Covent Garden. "We quickly became known for our sheep sweaters — wool jumpers covered with rows of little white sheep, and one proverbial 'black sheep'," the founders share on their website. "As artists, we've always identified with black sheep ourselves: because of a recessive gene, black sheep are born with black wool in flocks of otherwise white sheep (in a flock of a hundred, there might only be one black sheep!). The sweater seemed to resonate among some other black sheep of the time too: David Bowie, Andy Warhol, Shelley Duvall, Penelope Keith, Anthony Andrews — and, of course, Lady Diana Spencer." 

Keep going for a look at some of our favorites from the Rowing Blazers x Fall/Winter 2021 Collection that’s available to shop now.
