Surely such a piece of clothing as a sweater is present in the wardrobe of many girls and ladies. It can be called one of the basic elements, and the “mandatory” nature of its presence is easily explained - it not only warms you up in the cold season, but thanks to the huge variety of models, it can become a stylish addition to many looks. If the relevance of sweaters is beyond doubt, then it’s time to understand the fashion trends of this wardrobe item.
Fashion trends in women's sweaters 2020 with photos
It would seem that something so newfangled can be “invented” in the category of women’s sweaters? Very often, the current trends of the season turn out to be the “inheritance” of the previous year or return several years later. But the presence of new models in the latest collections of famous couturiers convinces us that the “fashion creators” have not yet run out of fresh ideas for improving and modifying cut, texture and other details.In addition, images of stars, which often appear in one version or another of a sweater, serve as an example and demonstrate the convenience, practicality and attractiveness of this wardrobe element.
Let’s see what’s really new or “new-old” that the fashion trends of women’s sweaters offer in 2020.
Color spectrum
A sweater is always the main element of the image, no matter what it is combined with - skirts, trousers, jeans. Therefore, its color should not only match the type of appearance, but also correspond to current trends. It is easy to fulfill these conditions - a variety of fashionable shades allows you to find “your” tone. This season welcomes delicate powdery colors, as well as gray and chocolate colors.
Those who do not recognize pastel shades or they simply do not suit them can choose from a bright palette - the trend is blue, red, orange, yellow, bottle glass color and noble burgundy.
The hit of the season is white. This sweater “refreshes” any look and even the simplest model makes the outfit elegant.
Welcome color combinations:
- white with yellow, red or blue;
- beige and pastel;
- black and white classic.
Prints and decor
A trend that has been at the peak of popularity for several seasons and is not losing ground is stripes. It can be not only “usually” horizontal, but also located vertically or diagonally. Such models always look stylish.
The current decor option is embroidery. The intarsia technique is trending, allowing you to decorate models with full-fledged paintings, cartoon or comic characters.
Reference. Intarsia is a multi-color knitting technique used for large areas. Translated from Italian, this concept means “insert”.
At the latest shows of fashion designers, one could see models in patchwork style or made using the Irish lace technique. Geometric and animalistic patterns are still in trend.
Sweaters decorated with beads, rhinestones, with a checkered print or with an inscription are trendy.
The hit of the season are models decorated with ties. Lacing can be located in the neckline, on the back or on the sleeves. Such models should be monochromatic, mostly pastel, light colors.
Fur inserts located on the front, sides or sleeves make the sweater unusual and fashionable. They can be the same tone as the main material, or contrast with it.
Current styles of sweaters for women
Before “plunging headlong” into fashionable sweater models, I would like to note that the main trends are simplicity of patterns and laconic cut. So…
The choice of women with an ideal figure is a trendy crop sweater. However, if the figure is without flaws, and the appearance is more than just “cute,” any model will do. But let's return to the shortened version. It can be bright colors, printed, made using various knitting techniques. The unusual shape of the sleeves can become an interesting accent. This model goes harmoniously with any bottom.
Reference. It is advisable that the “bottom” in an image with a crop sweater be high-waisted to avoid excessive exposure at the waist.
As they say, in defiance of the trend mentioned above, elongated models reminiscent of a tunic or dress are also relevant. As a rule, such options are quite voluminous and designed in an oversized style, which also remains in trend. Many designers explain their “love” for this style by its ability to emphasize fragility and femininity.
The current oversize is represented not only by elongated options. Trendy features of voluminous sweaters in 2020 are unusual shapes of necks and sleeves. Preferred colors are burgundy, beige, black.
The general trend for a wide variety of models, ranging from classics to variants of the original cut, is large knitting. Single-color sweaters and sweaters of combined colors are popular. Models with a braid pattern or contrasting yarn look stylish.
The “elastic” pattern is welcome, as well as models made using the so-called hosiery knitting technique.
Fitted golf models, reminiscent of a turtleneck, made of fine yarn or knitwear are another trend of the season. This version of the sweater is considered universal - suitable for any look and age.
Asymmetrical models will suit any figure. These may be options with uneven edges, bare shoulders or with one sleeve. Whichever option is chosen, the image will definitely attract attention.
Options with a voluminous and high neck are a must-have in the wardrobe of a fashionable person. Such models are another universal choice for looks in any style and for different body types.
As for the material for making sweaters, it can be not only wool yarn. The “raw materials” can be fibers mixed with synthetics, as well as fleece. From the latter material, things are not knitted, but sewn. The felting technique is also used to make sweaters.
Star fashion
We’ve sorted out the main trends in women’s sweaters, and now let’s “get curious” about which models are preferred by the so-called rich and famous. Maybe their example will help you decide what options to “enrich” your wardrobe this season.
