Layering Sweaters Is the Most Foolproof Spring Styling Hack

We now have to cope with transitional weather, as if it weren’t difficult enough to drag ourselves out of bed every morning. Is it going to be a sunny and warm sixty degrees tomorrow, or will it be quite cold with wind gusts reaching double digits? Nobody knows for sure! You’ve never seen sweater-centric fashion like this before, with outfits ranging from fuzzy crewnecks combined with flirty spring dresses to bulky knits worn with the most revealing of skirts.

Better still, the styling advice that follows will help you incorporate these jaw-dropping runway looks into your regular wardrobe rotation so that you may continue to look put together and stylish even when you are completely broke.

1. Style with Sheers

Although sweaters are typically associated with the fall and winter seasons, they may be worn throughout springtime if paired with sheer separates or dresses, as seen in the above Louis Vuitton and Michael Kors ensembles. Pair your cosiest jumper with your prettiest tulle, sequin or lace skirt to enhance the multidimensionality of this layered jumper ensemble.

2. Try Off-Kilter Angles

An angular and off-kilter style gave crew neck Layering Sweaters and cardigans an edgier update at Victoria Beckham and Gucci. To achieve the Victoria Beckham style above, we don’t advise taping your favourite sweater to the front of a zip-up jacket, but we do advise spending some time in front of the mirror experimenting with creative ways to tuck, twist, and alter the fit of your favourite sweaters.

3. Warm Up Summer Staples

The layered jumper looks shown above combine Y2K fashion revival with transitional weather attire, and we’re totally digging it. At Paco Rabanne, breezy floral sundresses paired with warm sweaters created a springtime atmosphere that was impervious to the chill. Striped Layering Sweaters at Anna Sui functioned as an undergarment for maxi skirts and bohemian cut-out tank tops. You can take your favourite summer garments out of storage with either method and not feel cold.

4. Add Sculptural Accents Layering Sweaters

Even while soft Layering Sweaters are the best, you may still wear layered sweater looks that have a bit of a harsh edge. One example would be the eerie jumper combinations worn by Hermes and Isabel Marant on the FW24/25 catwalks. Your next jumper outfit can be elevated by finishing it off with a harness or basque belt, so go ahead and unleash your inner femme fatale.

5. Crop It Like It’s Hot

One of the most exciting aspects of every Fashion Week is the introduction of new shapes. With ultra-cropped sweaters strutting the runway, Fendi and Issey Miyake turned their attention to knitwear as the medium for creative shape-experimenting. Use breathable, incredibly light knits like cotton, cashmere, or mohair to replicate this look of Layering Sweaters at home.

6. Bring in a Belt

As much as we adore layering sweaters, we also have to acknowledge that doing so can get thick and create an undefined silhouette. After all, true love isn’t blind to this fact. The Kenzo and Chanel Fall/Winter 24/25 runways demonstrated how to easily resolve this fashion problem by adding a bold belt that is knotted at your natural waist.

7. Knot Your Knits

When combined with a knit-on-knit ensemble, preppy “sweater knotted over the shoulders” look is elevated to new stylish heights. Wearing various weaves and textures will help you achieve a chic contrast and a statement fit, as seen on the Paco Rabanne catwalk. Prefer a more polished look? Keep everything simple, like Michael Kors.

8. Add a Blazer Layer

Although blazers frequently feature in layered ensembles, we’re more accustomed to seeing them worn as an outer garment. With their Fall/Winter ’24 designs, Emporio Armani and Max Mara disrupted the formula by featuring suit separates and blazers layered beneath Layering Sweaters. The outcome is a decidedly informal interpretation of business casual attire.

9. Take a Plunge

With their Fall/Winter ’24 designs, Emporio Armani and Max Mara disrupted the formula by featuring suit separates and blazers layered beneath sweaters.
