How to wear a women's turtleneck?

As soon as a turtleneck is not called. For St. Petersburg residents she is bad. Fans of English culture and music define her as a Beatle (a reference to the Fab Four, whose members simply adored the turtleneck). Well, professional sewing magazines use the “golf sweater”.

Moreover, this wardrobe item not only has many names, but also many ways to use it. It is worn both as an independent item and as a base for a sundress, a dress, a formal jacket, a daring biker jacket, a knitted jacket and a tracksuit. There are no restrictions on style and materials. For an interesting bow, you just need to choose a bow in accordance with your body type.

Which figure “allows” a turtleneck?

A pronounced pear needs a butt of the correct length and degree of fit, as well as special elasticity and thickness of the fabric. A thin and tight-fitting short turtleneck will simply ride up due to the difference between the width of the hips and the narrowness of the waist.

Overweight women will face another problem: tight golf socks made of thin fabric will show off all the flaws in their figure and look, to put it mildly, bad. In their case, you need to determine the most problematic area. If these are hands, then you should wear a sweater, denim or jacket over the turtleneck, which will hide the flaw. The tummy and sides can be easily hidden under an elongated turtleneck. Well, the folds on the back are decorated with a scarf thrown over the shoulders.

Girls with very large breasts will also face problems, but at the stage of choosing an item. To narrow your search, immediately avoid very thin synthetic products, as well as mesh turtlenecks. They will stretch in the décolleté area due to their own density. As a result, in bright lighting, the outline of the bra will begin to appear through the turtleneck (so clearly, as if nothing was worn on top at all).

What to combine with?

With clothes made in the following style directions:

• jockey;
• preppy;
• smart casual;
• classic;
• sport;
• aviator

Inspiration can be found in the images of dudes, as well as in the fashion of the 90s.

Ensembles with a bright women's turtleneck

Wear burgundy with a white or gray jacket, or with a biker jacket. Blue - with jeans. Orange will fit into the jockey style, just like beige and white. Soft pink will be an ideal top option for a romantic skirt or classic trousers.

If you are not afraid to combine bright with bright, turn to the 70s of the XX century. At that time, it was fashionable to put together ensembles of things in rich, interesting colors. On the street you could meet a person wearing bright trousers (for example, blue bell-bottoms) and red socks.

Important! Sports style lovers simply need to start combining bright plain turtlenecks with bomber jackets.

It’s also worth taking note of a set of women’s turtlenecks in a cheerful shade and tight tights of exactly the same color. Fill the “distance” between them with sundresses and skirts made of durable fabrics that hold their shape well. Let there be neat boots or lace-up shoes on your feet, and a beret on your head.

Images with black

Classic colors, an excellent base for a plain, dark and light look, as well as an ensemble with bright wardrobe items. Another advantage: black suits different complexions. With rare exceptions, such a collar will not cause pain.. Only ladies with deep bruises under the eyes, undisguised by cosmetics, should exercise caution.

Combination options:

• leather shorts, as well as models in bright colors (wear with patent leather boots and boots in bright colors);
• vest (long and classic, wool, denim or suit fabric);
• checkered jacket or shirt;
• speckled gray jacket;
• white or pastel-colored shirt (wear under a Beatle jacket).

Important! Black looks good with red, dark green, beige (brown) and blue. A sleeveless vest with a diamond pattern in these colors will look wonderful.

To elongate your silhouette, wear black trousers, heeled boots of the same color and an elongated golf sweater. The result will be a monochromatic canvas, which can be painted with a thin long chain with a pendant, a bright bag and/or a light shawl.

What to wear with lace?

Much depends on whether we are talking about a completely openwork turtleneck with a neck or a model in which only 1 part is lace (collar, sleeves, back).If the second option occurs, then when composing images you need to take into account that the insertion is an accent. Because the rest of the things in the image should emphasize this feature of the Beatles, and not try to draw attention to themselves.

An example of a set that confirms this theory is a turtleneck with an openwork insert in the chest area (from it to the collar). With such a model, a sleeveless vest will definitely look good, the cutout of which matches the shape of the lower border of the lace patch.

Lace circle skirts and bell-type models look interesting with completely openwork items. It is also worth paying attention to things made of velvet and other dense heavy fabrics, just like wardrobe items and shoes trimmed with fur.

Original ways to use a turtleneck

Layering is the dominant trend of 2018. To play it up, wear a plain turtleneck. On top of it is a very light boho sundress to the floor. Raise your hair and decorate your face with themed dangling earrings.

Another option: the collar of a golf sweater peeks out from a short fur coat over which a coat is worn. For the bottom, let there be wide, long, plain pants made of thick fabric. It’s also worth trying to wear a badlon under the bottom of a loose knit pullover (it should be without a neckline), over which a jacket is worn.

What accessories are suitable?

Depends on the specific shade, primarily its warmth. Things in delicate touching tones always look good with suede shoes (gray, beige - for sure). A small velvet clutch in a calm shade would be appropriate with an openwork turtleneck. It’s worth trying to take a lace purse bag with it.

Long scarves, stoles and shawls also often “shoot out”.For a casual, cozy look, take blue boyfriends with a brown leather belt, add a light gray turtleneck, throw a gray shawl with a solid black check (large) over your shoulders, and put on brown Timberlands on your feet.

Successful combinations with a women's turtleneck

1. Openwork golf (light or black, be sure to tuck it in), a dark blue plain bell skirt (knee-length or lower, maxi), thick black tights and ankle boots of the same color with fur trim. Let there be a fur hat on your head, and a muff on your hands (you can hang it around your neck). If in this set you replace the openwork turtleneck with a regular one, then you should wear a wide belt around the waist.
2. A khaki turtleneck, shorts from the same theme, a jacket (a very dark gray checkered woolen jacket would fit perfectly into the overall mood). Tie a black scarf tightly around your neck. Wear boots or ankle boots with long socks or leg warmers on your feet.
3. Cream trousers (tight-fitting), brown over the knee boots (or jockey boots), speckled gray turtleneck, jacket (darker than the trousers, maybe with a pattern), cap.
