THE SWEATER VEST
As the layering trend grows in popularity, so does the Sweater Vest. A versatile piece of knitting, the sweater vest can be used in both cosy and glamorous fits due to its plunging necklines and fitted rib effect. The transitional piece is easy to wear over t-shirts, dresses and shirts as we get into the colder months.
It is a key piece in a multitude of trends this season, including:
New Prep - Inspired by classic collegiate styles, New Prep, taps into summer sports such as tennis and golf and influences the more printed styles of knitted vests.
Home Style - Working from home has allowed us to dress more comfortably. This trend mostly promotes softer, warmer knitted vests due to their ease of wear. You’ll find round or v-neck styles being more flattering for an older client.
