The new season of BBC's The Traitors is back, and so is presenter Claudia Winkleman's instantly recognisable highland gothic wardrobe. After the first week of episodes, fans are already raving about her style, with one particular accessory taking centre stage once again: her beloved fingerless gloves.
The Signature Staple Fans Adore
Winkleman, styled by Sinead McKeefry, has made Brora's Women's Cashmere Wristwarmers a cornerstone of her on-screen uniform since the show's first season. The presenter appears to own them in a rainbow of colours, seamlessly pairing them with chunky boots, oversized knits, and wool coats to complete her atmospheric look.
Social media has been quick to applaud her latest ensembles. One fan exclaimed, "Ohhhh wow! already amazing," while another chimed in, "Here for the iconic outfits (and icon herself!)" This consistent style choice has cemented the gloves as a key part of her Traitors persona.
Investment-Worthy Warmth and Style
Priced at £65 per pair, these wristwarmers are an investment in quality. They are crafted from four-ply 100% Scottish cashmere, knitted in Scotland at one of the country's oldest textile mills. This premium material ensures they are luxuriously soft, non-itchy, and provide warmth without causing sweaty palms.
The design is as practical as it is stylish. With a separate thumb space and open fingers, they are perfect for modern winter life, allowing wearers to easily use a smartphone or rummage in a bag while keeping their hands cosy. Brora currently offers the wristwarmers in 10 different shades, including the black and conker colours frequently seen on Winkleman.
Stylish Alternatives for Every Budget
For those seeking a similar look for less, several excellent alternatives are available. House of Bruar sells its Gauzy Cashmere Fingerless Mitts for just £37.95. Also made from 100% cashmere, they come in 18 colours and feature a nearly identical silhouette.
Shoppers can also find a bargain at Johnston's of Elgin, where Women's Fingerless Light Green Cashmere Gloves have been reduced from £85 to £45 in the sale. This style offers individual finger slots for added warmth. For ultimate cold-weather protection, Toast's Nishiguchi Kutsushita Merino Tipless Gloves, costing £30, are made in Japan from merino wool and extend up the forearm.
With her curated looks already generating buzz, Claudia Winkleman continues to prove that sometimes the smallest accessory can make the biggest style statement.
