Autumn is the perfect time to experiment new outfits and one of the first things people want to buy to complete their looks, when this season comes is knitwear. It’s the best time of the year to try layers and heavier textures that show up the most inventive looks. So, knitwear trends are here again!
There’s just something so comforting about knitwear that makes it difficult for people to resist it, when the cold weather comes. Furthermore, many of us are still looking to spend more time at home due to the new normal. So, you can rest assured that there are going to be some great knitted options out there for you to try. From sets and vests to twee embroidery pieces, there will be looks for every tastes.
Knitwear trend is as comfortable as it are chic, depending on what you pair it with. On the fall 2021 runways, Bottega Veneta, The Row, and many other designers showed soft pieces that are crafted with warm wools and cozy cashmere yarns. It’s a trend we have learned to love over the past year. Because, although their relaxed feel, these pieces give a sophisticated and elevated touch to your outfits, that will prevent you from feeling dressed down.
Get to know the knitwear trends that are taking over 2021:
Vests
Knitted vests are going to be just as popular as they were last winter. Simple styles may have dominated last year. But in 2021, the trend is on the next level, appearing with retro weaves in bright colors. We suggest you to invest in an authentic vintage vest, because If it looks vintage, it’s absolutely on-trend!
Striped Sweaters
This type of piece can really change your outfit, turning it into more put-together, but at the same time comfortable! Use it in white and blue colors to achieve a more sailor and classic look!
Dress Sets
During lockdown, knitted co-ords were the meaning of sophistication and they are slowly coming back to autumn 2021. On the other hand this time, we are going to see more polished dress and cardigan combinations instead of loungewear inspired trouser and t-shirt sets.
Ribbed Textures
This textured effect makes any clothing item appear more elevated than the non-textured versions of it it. As it is ribbed textures instantly elevate knitwear and stop it from looking like house clothing. Ribbed dresses or jumpsuits are getting more attention right now because we are seeing how comfortable and easy to wear they can be.
Embroidery Knitwear
Embroidery trend were seen last year in cardigans, and become a trend known by “grandma trend” . Floral and lemon embroidery can remember us the summer season, but this time, designers like Sea are switching things up and exploring fruity stitches. So, we are going to see more embroideries designs like berries, raspberries, strawberries and even grapes standing out on cosy knits.
Cut outs
When it comes to knitwear trends, cut outs always seem to look chic, maybe because they make an unexpected twist to knitwear’s slouchy silhouettes. Forget loud prints or extroverted accessories, because the cut-outs are the design elements that will stand out in a knitwear shirt. This autumn, both designer and high-street brands seem to agree with cut out details.
Tube Skirts
Knitted skirts have been a popular piece over the last few years, but instead of the A-line fit of the past seasons, autumn 2021 is bringing on more tube-like silhouettes and designs. We recommend you to wear it with a jumper turning it to a total monochromatic look in nude colors.
Heavy Crochet
Crochet has made a huge mark on the 2021 style area, and it won’t just disappear out of the blue. Although crochet is mostly considered a summer trend, in fall season we should invest on thicker, heavier weaves with minimal gaps, so that we can use them on a colder day and they can better resist to the autumn weather.
Here’s to a season of elevated looks that puts comfort first, a trend that people are certainly follow!
