Get ready to see a lot more of Claudia Winkleman, because the beloved Strictly Come Dancing host has just landed a brand-new gig – she’s the new face of Marks & Spencer! The 52-year-old TV personality is known for her effortlessly chic style, and her first campaign for the high-street favourite showcases just that.
In the images released for the campaign, Claudia is seen sporting a stunning outfit from Jaeger, the iconic British brand now available at Marks & Spencer. The ensemble features a striped knitted jumper (£115), tailored ankle-grazer trousers (£99), and a classic black longline coat (£299). Completing the look are a pair of lace-up shoes and Claudia’s signature smokey eye makeup.
But it’s the £115 Mohair Blend Striped V-Neck Jumper that has really captured everyone’s attention. The timeless stripe print and slouchy fit with dropped shoulders make it a true wardrobe staple. The jumper is also incredibly cozy, thanks to the ribbed trims and mohair-blend yarn spun with wool. This is a layering piece that’s perfect for the cooler months.
According to the Marks & Spencer website, several of these jumpers have already been sold today. The navy-and-white knit has proven so popular that it’s already sold out in size small, but you can still snag one in medium, large, or extra-large, both in-store and online.
Marks & Spencer is excited about their new ambassador, stating on their website: “Introducing our newest M&S ambassador: the iconic Claudia Winkleman, one of the most beloved figures on British TV. Claudia’s signature style combines classic tailoring with a hint of eccentricity and with Jaeger’s latest collection at M&S, she’s embracing luxurious autumnal essentials.”
Fashion fans are also loving the look, with many taking to social media to praise the collaboration. One person gushed, “Beyond excited!! Claud is the absolute best.” Another added, “She is the best. She looks stunning. This collaboration is something to get excited over.”
While most are embracing the campaign, some have expressed a desire for more vibrant colours. One commenter said, “Love Claudia. I’m not so keen on the black though. Like a bit of colour in the darker months.”
Whether you’re a fan of the classic black and white or prefer a splash of color, there’s no denying that Claudia Winkleman’s Jaeger ensemble is a stylish hit. So if you’re looking for a new cozy knit for the colder months, make sure to check out the Jaeger Mohair Blend Striped V-Neck Jumper, available in sizes medium, large, or extra-large for £115.
And if you’re after similar styles on a slightly smaller budget, Debenhams offers the Dorothy Perkins Striped Cable Knit Crew Neck Jumper for £21, while Roman stocks a Navy Heart Embroidered Stripe Jumper for £32.
