M&s’ £26 neck-tie jumper is the spring staple everyone wants — sizes are going quickly
m&s has emerged with multiple spring knit highlights this season, from a £26 Tie Neck Knitted Top with Wool to a zesty lemon-yellow Fluffy Crew Neck Knitted Jumper and a heavily discounted Cotton Rich Cropped Jumper. The pieces matter now because a mix of trend colour, hybrid styling and steep discounts is driving demand across the high street.
M&s Tie Neck Knitted Top: price, composition and styling details
The Tie Neck Knitted Top with Wool from M&s is priced at £26 and is described as costing less than £30. The top features a cropped sleeve design, a wool-blend composition and a mock-neck collar, with a built-in neck tie that fastens neatly around the neck for a Left Bank feel. It is available in a spring-ready pink and a classic charcoal, and is already selling out quickly as buyers snap up the transeasonal, low-maintenance piece.
Fluffy Crew Neck Knitted Jumper in lemon yellow: texture, fit and colour options
The Fluffy Crew Neck Knitted Jumper is offered in a zesty lemon yellow that follows last year’s butter-yellow moment and the brighter citrus hue spotted widely for 2026. The jumper is made from a uniquely fluffy, fuzzy fabric described as irresistibly soft to the touch and is pitched as a cosy layering piece for unpredictable British forecasts. Its regular fit is designed so it won’t feel bulky under a trench coat or bomber jacket, and it’s slightly cropped for a gently nipped-in effect that pairs well with high-waisted jeans or trousers. The knit is made from synthetic materials, yet reviewers have praised the thickness, insulating properties and overall comfort of the piece. The style is also offered in pastel pink, golden brown and dark khaki.
Cotton Rich Cropped Jumper: discount route and TopCashback mechanics
The Cotton Rich Cropped Jumper from Marks & Spencer normally retails at £20 but can be picked up for as little as £4. 50 through an exclusive link that routes shoppers to TopCashback. New customers of both Marks & Spencer and TopCashback can unlock the full discount after signing up; shoppers who already buy from Marks & Spencer but are new to TopCashback can secure the jumper for £4. 83 instead of £20. TopCashback users can also receive £15 cashback when they spend more than £15.
The cropped jumper is cut in a regular fit with a crew neckline and a shorter length, featuring ribbed detailing and dropped shoulders for a relaxed feel. It is available in two colours: rose pink and azure blue, and it has been marked as 'in-demand' on the Marks & Spencer website.
Customer feedback on the Cotton Rich Cropped Jumper: praise and a fit caveat
Customer reviews for the M&S Cotton Rich Cropped Jumper are largely positive. One buyer called it a "perfect fitting jumper in such a beautiful colour, " noting purchases of both the pink and the blue and praising the price. Another praised the colour for spring and the material for pairing with many outfits. A third said the jumper washes well and serves as a good wardrobe item to transition from winter to spring. One purchaser did flag a fit issue, saying the jumper is sold as cropped but is actually closer to a normal length despite fitting to size.
How these knits sit within the wider high-street mix
The neck-tie jumper is framed as the natural evolution of the scarf coat trend that took off in 2021 when the Swedish brand Toteme launched a hybrid scarf-coat style that became a cold-weather staple. Four years on, the scarf coat remains popular and other wardrobe staples are receiving hybrid makeovers, with the neck-tie jumper positioned as a stylish, functional spring alternative. Styling tips for the tie-neck piece include fastening the neck tie to the side for a cool-girl look or knotting it loosely in front for preppy chic, and pairing ideas range from an A-line mini skirt with knee-high boots or Mary Janes to wide-leg over-the-toe jeans with platform boots and a shoulder bag.
Beyond these knits, several other high-street pieces are highlighted alongside M&s offerings: JW Anderson at Uniqlo items, a Dune bag owned by half the fashion team, an M&S car coat promoted as a chic spring layer, the Nobody's Child Naomi dress noted as comparable to Victoria Beckham, Next's £46 polka dot jeans, a smocked blouse described as an instant spring refresh, an M&S £46 denim midi with flattering sleeves, The Breaknet Sleek bright trainer for spring, Topshop's £80 jacket, Next's parka for rainy days, Boden's £36 red trousers, spring 2026 denim shades replacing classic blue, a £30 knit promoted as a spring prettiest shade, new high-street arrivals priced from £20, an M&S £30 denim jacket selling quickly, Roman's Grey Floral Print Jacquard Knit Jumper priced at £30 reduced from £38, and Boden's Lucy Cotton Jumper at £85 available in olive green and several multi-coloured options.
