Trend Watch: 1 Sweater Vest, 3 Looks
We’ll fully admit that we didn’t think these two words would wind up in our fashion trend lexicon, but the Autumn/Winter ’15 shows demonstrated that sweater vests are not only a must-have this fall, but one of the best styling tricks to nail multiple trends in one look. This sleeveless knit will become your new staple when you need to add that extra layer of texture, color or print. You can swing into full 70s mode with pussy bow blouses, flared jeans and sky high platforms or play up the posh and preppy vibe with leather culottes, neutral toned turtlenecks and embellished loafers. As for evening wear, this masculine sweater is the perfect counterpart to feminine pieces like frilly dresses, sequined skirts and flirty heels. With all that versatility, you’ll soon be pushing a sweater vest to the top of your gotta-have-it list just like we did.
