You believed knitwear to be that boring basic? You are wrong. Fashion breathed new life into what was once plain. Technicolor oversized knits (think Marni) became somewhat iconic. One thing is for sure: designers are having fun with colors, prints, and silhouettes. The quickest way to get the party spirit into our clothes is through color. Why is that? It’s because color is a direct connection to our emotions. By choosing the colors we wear, we’re expressing how we are feeling or want to feel without saying a word. Take a look at some of the very best acid brights to inject your wardrobe with right now.
Acid
As the new year gets underway, we’re seeing eye-catching acid color palettes take hold. Expect to see green, raspberry, azure and fluorescent yellow pieces all over Instagram come spring. If you’re nervous about these shades, opt for a classic silhouette. The simplicity of a basic shape perfectly balances out the vibrancy of brighter, “look at me!” hues. Get ahead of the curve with some of the options I found online.
Muted
The classic cable-knit sweater we all know and love has gotten a facelift. You can always count on the standard corded sweater, but it’s nice to revamp our wardrobes with new styles. This season, it’s all about cropped silhouettes. See how I wore a supposedly boring number with daring cargo bottoms and chunky chelsea boots to create an edgy look. It’s the contrast for me.
Vivid
The go-bold-or-go-home style has cemented itself as a winter staple. Bright and clashing colors are all up for grabs, putting a pop of color back into your cold-weather attire. Layer the punchy and adventurous knits with a suit for an instant cool-girl effect.
Cozy, comfy, and chic. Are you a knitwear kind of gal?
