Marks & Spencer shoppers are loving a “gorgeous” jacket that’s flying off the shelves this January as a cheerful and cosy staple for the chilly weather.
The Collared Neck Relaxed Fit Knitted Jacket has shot to the number one spot on the bestseller list as the most popular jacket on the M&S website, with its cosy style perfect as an extra layer in the winter months as well as for looking ahead to the spring. Priced at €42 and available in sizes extra small to extra large, it comes in versatile dark grey or eye-catching lilac to brighten up your wardrobe for the New Year.
Made from air-spun yarn for a “feather-light” feel, the jacket is designed in a relaxed fit with a collared neckline, patch pockets and ribbed trims for a smart-casual look that makes it suited to all manner of occasions. And it has earned rave reviews from M&S shoppers so far, with those who have snapped it up praising it as “stylish and feminine” as well as “surprisingly warm”.
One person praised in a five-star review: “Perfect fit and very soft, not itchy. I love the cropped length which is so flattering with tailored trousers or a skirt. Could also dress up your jeans. I might get another in a different colour.”

Another customer said: “It’s quite a generous boxy fit which is what I wanted. I was looking for a bit of colour after all the black and beige so was really happy with the lilac. Received several compliments when wearing it.”
A third shopper fed back: “I love this relaxed fit knitted jacket. The size and shape is perfect on me. Feels so lovely and soft. I got the lilac colour. Really wish M&S did this in more colours. Great value for money.”
And someone else wrote: “Gorgeous design in a beautiful lilac shade. Highly recommended.”
While no-one has given the jacket a rating lower than three stars so far, one reviewer complained that it “arrived very creased” and someone else remarked that the buttons were “so dull”. Another shopper fed back: “Unfortunately it is boxy style so a little too short for me, so sadly had to return.”
