Competition | Win £200 to spend at Gudrun Sjödén

David Parker September 16, 2026

Famed for its fun Scandi flair, Gudrun Sjödén’s latest lines offer sustainable staples that will be loved for generations

This season, embark on a journey of textile stories from Greenland to southern Sweden with a Gudrun Sjödén capsule wardrobe inspired by the palette of Scotland. Centred around undyed natural fibres, the collection features cotton that’s traditionally unbleached, wool with a unique flecked finish as unique as the sheep it came from, and linen in deeper, bold shades. All incredibly beautiful and timeless.

As the weather turns cooler and the days turn shorter, it’s the ideal time to layer up with transitional pieces in warming wool and cotton, creating an effortless, cosy look. Discover stunning jacquard-knit cardigans in both cropped and longline styles, while the seasonal staple, the anorak, stands out. A palette of soft ecru, warm reds, Klein blue, aubergine and brass yellow bring cheer to the darker days.

Gudrun Sjödén’s love for handicraft also shines in her latest clothes and homeware collections with creative details inspired by Greenland and the folklore-steeped textile traditions of Skåne in southern Sweden. 

Committed to sustainable production, each Gudrun Sjödén piece is crafted with care and designed to be used year in, year out, helping you to curate a sustainable wardrobe with heirloom pieces that can be passed on for generations to come.

For your chance to win one of two £200 Gudrun Sjödén vouchers*, enter our competition and you could soon be picking something beautiful and unique for yourself or your home this season.

The Simple Things

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
