What to wear with a men's jumper

Men's jumperThere is not a single modern man who does not have a jumper in his wardrobe. With the onset of winter cold, this is the most sought-after item of clothing. And although it originated as a uniform for athletes, now it is appropriate for almost any environment and situation.

Despite the fact that this is a fairly familiar and ordinary element of the wardrobe, it still haunts modern designers. Of course, not every man will decide to wear the models that appear at the latest fashion shows, but knowing the trends will help you see a familiar thing from an unexpected angle.

In addition to frankly “catwalk” options, leading designers also offer models suitable for everyday wear. Men who care about their appearance should take into account that This fall, large knits and patterns of voluminous braids are in fashion.

Oversized is still at the peak of popularity, so an elongated men's jumper of a slightly larger size is now in trend.Colors include all shades of blue, traditional black, brown, as well as wine and ocher.

How to choose

First of all, when choosing, you should pay attention to the material. High wool content guarantees warmth, but will be more expensive and require careful care. A less expensive option is one containing synthetic thread, however, it should not contain more than 50%. Otherwise, the item will not warm at all, and in appearance it is noticeably inferior to clothing made from natural fabrics.

Cotton

Cotton products are easy to care for, breathable and look good at the same time. A significant disadvantage is that after washing there is a risk of getting an item of unexpected size, since cotton does not hold its shape well and often stretches or “shrinks”. This jumper is great for autumn and spring, but in winter it is better to avoid it: it will not warm well.

Wool

The most suitable option for cold winter. This natural material also has excellent breathability while still retaining warmth. Wool can be very different: angora, sheep, cashmere, merino. Soft, warm and very comfortable, woolen items will always be popular. But in pursuit of naturalness, it is worth remembering that 100% wool quickly loses its appearance (especially with improper care), and pills and abrasions form on the surface. Therefore, materials containing 5–10% synthetics are preferred.

The second equally important point when choosing is to choose the right size. In the classic version, the sleeve should be up to the wrist, the shoulder seam should be exactly in the middle, and the jumper itself should not hinder movement.First of all, this is a thing for everyday and quite frequent wear, so if it is uncomfortable, something rubs, or squeezes, then it is better to refuse the purchase altogether.

In addition, when choosing a jumper, you need to clearly understand what things it will be worn with and for what purposes. For work and study, it is better to choose restrained colors, and for a less formal environment, you can purchase a bright option.

The style is also of great importance. Tall men should choose elongated models, and if they are overweight, tight-fitting ones are contraindicated.

What to wear with

When combining a jumper with other things, you should adhere to two principles:

  • appropriateness (the image must match the situation);
  • compatibility (color, texture).

With a shirt

One of the most popular options. Worn with both classic trousers and jeans.

Tips from stylists:

  • a shirt collar that does not lie over the jumper neckline will create a more discreet, neat look; the shirt cuffs should also protrude slightly from the sleeves;
  • when wearing a tie, the collar is tucked in;
  • a shirt with a hard collar is not suitable for thin knitwear; this principle also applies in the opposite situation: a shirt with a soft collar is not suitable for a thick, large knit (it simply won’t be visible);
  • if there is no tie, the top button of the shirt should be undone;
  • the knitwear should be quite dense so that the folds on the shirt are not visible.

When combining colors, the same rules apply as for all other clothes: bright colors, patterns on a jumper - a plain shirt, subdued shades, and vice versa.

With a suit

Available with or without a shirt. Rules:

  • It is better to choose a single-color jumper, without voluminous patterns;
  • sleeves should not peek out;
  • instead of a shirt, you can wear a silk scarf or handkerchief;
  • knitwear should be soft.

With a blazer

A blazer is a variant of a jacket that can be either single-breasted or double-breasted. It is distinguished by patch pockets, often with metal buttons or stripes on the chest. A few rules on how to combine a jumper with it:

  • under a blazer, as well as under a classic jacket, only thin, soft knitwear is suitable; large knitting will add extra volume to the silhouette;
  • Fair-skinned blondes should avoid combining a blazer and a dark-colored jumper.

With outerwear

In general, you can wear anything over a jumper. The only thing worth paying attention to is that chunky knitwear under a jacket visually increases the figure, so large men with a tendency to be overweight should be careful with this combination. This jumper looks more impressive with a classic wool coat.

One of the advantages of a jumper is that it fits perfectly into a multi-layered ensemble. You can wear it with a shirt, blazer, jacket, tie or scarf at the same time and still look great. The main thing is to correctly combine the shades and style of things.
