Looking for sweaters that will stand the test of time? Demi Moore still loves her timeless picks from J.Crew.(Variety via Getty Images)
With her impeccably cool style, Demi Moore is a bonafide fashion icon. She has long mastered that just-right balance of feminine and masculine, pulling off tailored suits and glamorous strapless dresses with ease on the red carpet.
That said, it's no surprise that J.Crew tapped the actress to model pieces from its new fall collection. In an accompanying interview, Moore reveals that she's been wearing J.Crew since the '90s. Her vintage favorites include rugged brown work boots, saddle shoes and, of course, cozy oversized sweaters ("I have a few," she says). She also shared a bunch of her current favorite styles — including jeans, tees and cashmere socks.
With cool fall temps arriving any day now, consider taking a cue from Moore and stocking your own closet with classic sweaters you'll wear and love for years to come. Whether you invest in cotton crewnecks for milder climates or wool and cashmere for frigid days, J.Crew has plenty to choose from.
Drape this chic cardigan over pretty much anything in your wardrobe, and it'll instantly elevate even the most casual combos. Made of a machine-washable cotton blend at a Fair Trade Certified factory, this lounge-worthy sweater features a hint of cashmere for extra softness. It comes in four fab neutrals in sizes XXS–3X.
"This cardigan is perfection," raved a cozy customer. "I love the slightly oversized fit and the fabric is so nice — warm and soft but not at all itchy. Exactly what I was looking for, and will likely buy multiple colors."
J.Crew's 100% cotton rollneck sweaters are iconic; the brand releases them in new colors, patterns and fits each year. This season, there are lots of fun striped styles, including this on-trend green and white pick. Shoppers can also choose from red and blue and navy and ivory, plus solids like olive green, cream and navy.
Don't let the name deceive you — this slouchy, stylish sweater is suited for more than trips to the beach. It's designed to be less bulky than sweaters you'd traditionally wear in the fall and winter, making it ideal if you live somewhere that doesn't get super cold.
Shoppers agree that this versatile pick is a winner. "My new favorite sweater — not just for the beach," one reviewer wrote. "These are my new favorite sweaters. [They are] not too long, not too light, and not too heavy. The sweater holds its shape nicely."
Wicked fall and winter chills are no match for this cozy 100% lambswool sweater that comes in cream, gray and navy blue. You can wear it solo or layer a tee or turtleneck underneath depending on the temps. It's ever-so-slightly oversized, so a thin base layer won't impact the fit too much.
This luxe style made Moore's list of current faves from J.Crew. It's made from 100% cashmere and has a looser fit that's flattering and comfortable. It's available in six solid colors, plus a preppy blue and white striped combo.
Yes, this two-tone pick is a splurge, but it's worth it. The cashmere is responsibly sourced and holds up well over time with proper care. I was gifted this sweater in a different color in 2022, and despite wearing it on heavy rotation for two winters, it's still in great condition. It's the perfect soft, sumptuous sweater you reach for on a really cold, don't-want-to-go-outside kind of day.
