Is the Sweater The Most Versatile Item In A Wardrobe? 

Layering a fitted crew-neck sweater over a preppy collar and corduroy pants gives you immediate street cred like you kind of know what you’re doing in the style department (without trying too hard of course). 

If opting for a less varsity vibe, ditch the layering and rep the oversized waffle sweater paired with chinos and vans. A denim jacket thrown over the top will really dial up the Kurt Cobain energy.

If you fancy yourself the outdoorsy type, or at the very least take style cues from the Stan series Yellow Stone, then a classic fisherman cable knit will add rugged charm to your current denim jeans collection and look the part under your heavy-duty outerwear. 

If the mood does strike you to dial up your earthy palette for a graphic pop, it’s safe to say stripes are basically neutrals when it comes to pulling off a pattern. Add a bit of mystery to your outfit by layering a wool duffle coat over the top to amplify the sweater. As this look is slightly more considered – a pair of track pants wouldn’t go astray (if anything it will bring the perfect balance to a high-low ensemble). 

A resurgence of the 80s half-zip sweaters has us dreaming of camp hikes and swim training. To wear this new favourite with grown-up appeal try under tailored separates like a tonal suit or blazer. This athletic cut blurs the lines between smart and casual so max it out or pare it back as the situation suits.
