Many modern fashion designers on the eve of the onset of cold weather pay increased attention to such a detail of a women's wardrobe as a fluffy sweater. They have already managed to prove to fashionistas in practice that this thing can not only be practical, but also look spectacular and relevant. Well, the warming properties of a fabric knitted from warm yarn are already well known to everyone.
Warming but not biting
Many mistakenly believe that such a thing is always a compromise. Do you also think that for the sake of warmth you will have to endure some inconvenience and put up with dubious aesthetics? It's time to break this stereotype for good, because the market is replete with many models of soft fluffy sweaters that are pleasant to the body and look great.
Natural wool is considered the best material. Typically, yarn manufacturers make fibers that have added natural cotton and a very small percentage of man-made fibers. This is necessary so that the finished product retains its shape.
Wool is used to make yarnalpaca, camel, llama, angora goat, sheep, rabbit and many other animals with fluffy warm fur. Clothing made from such materials is beautiful, pleasant to wear, perfectly warms, while allowing the skin to breathe. With proper care, such products are also durable.
Completely artificial yarn is often used to create sweaters. Today, many manufacturers are again turning their attention to the “grass”, which was already in vogue, but has lost its relevance over time. Looks like cute shaggy sweaters made from this practical yarn are making a comeback. It cannot be said that such clothes turn out to be very warm and will be able to warm in any frost. But it certainly has its advantages: a relatively low price, an unusual look, the ability to use in cool weather, when it will be unbearably hot in an angora sweater.
Actual colors
White fluffy sweater is a timeless classic. It suits absolutely everyone and is in perfect harmony with both daring ripped jeans and a strict pencil skirt. If you are lost in choice, give preference to universal white. No less tempting is the black color, which is also easy to mix.
Clothes made of undyed yarn look spectacular. A natural warm sweater in a natural shade is a real find for fans of ethno, eco and boho styles. Some manufacturers specifically dye their yarn in colors such as sand, chocolate, gray, brown or piebald to emphasize the naturalness of its origin.
But also lovers of brightcolors will certainly find what you like. Juicy plum, summery pistachio, luxurious carmine or cheerful turquoise - any of these shades can be a great idea for your favorite winter sweater. The main condition is to choose what will suit your face.
Selection rules
If, touching a thing in the store, you feel that it is unpleasant to the touch, you should not believe in miracles. Most likely, the sweater will not be softened and put in order, it will simply gather dust in the far corner of the closet.
Women's fluffy sweater should have a medium-weight knit, when shaken, the fibers should not crumble from it. Seams must be well finished.
Because natural wool is very to the taste of some household pests, carefully inspect it for bald spots. Moth lives not only in city apartments, but also in industrial warehouses, in the holds of transport ships and even in trucks. Incorrect transportation and storage may adversely affect the condition of the item.
Pay attention to the smell too. It shouldn't be unpleasant.
Fashion Casual Looks
Fluffy sweater is primarily designed for the cold season. But it can be worn not only in winter. Already in the first autumn frosts, this thing can be an excellent solution for a walk, gatherings with friends, shopping.
Don't be afraid to experiment with colors. For example, a bright pink fluffy sweater will perfectly “make friends” with an emerald skirt, and pumps and a matching clutch will act as a link.
Peach, pale blue, cream sweater forms a harmonious union with white tight trousers. To the top of a saturated color (eggplant, chocolate, swamp green), it is better to choose a dark bottom.
A neutral sweater can be worn under a pantsuit.
Bold experiments
Do you want gray days to stop being gray? So, you need a fluffy sweater in a bright color (for example, canary) and over the knee boots. The image will turn out spectacular, unexpected and bright.
A fluffy sweater with a fluffy skirt made of thin fabric looks very unusual. And the most daring fashionistas are not afraid to combine this item with warm tweed or thick denim shorts.
As you can see, many non-standard solutions can be successful.
Main taboos
If you decide to replenish your wardrobe with a fluffy sweater, you should remember some nuances. Firstly, such a thing is somewhat full of absolutely any figure. But this does not mean at all that ladies with forms need to categorically refuse angora and mohair sweaters. You just need to choose options without too long a pile and choose the right bottom for them. In this case, the ideal solution would be straight-cut trousers with pleats or gauze. Too tight pants will make the top of the figure heavy, the silhouette will look unbalanced. Wearing a fluffy sweater with a long skirt, especially with a short stature, is absolutely not worth it.
Another important point concerns relevance. Strict businessthe dress code applies to any knitted clothing negatively. Therefore, if only office style is allowed in your company, you cannot go there in a fluffy sweater.
It is unlikely that such a thing will be successfully combined with sportswear. Well, you definitely shouldn’t combine too many knitted items in one look. It is not recommended to wear a knitted shawl or cardigan over a mohair or angora sweater, but leggings peeking out of boots are quite acceptable.
Fluffy Yarn Care
Sweater made of natural wool cannot be washed at too high a temperature, 30 degrees is enough. Always choose Hand Wash or Delicate. In some cases, machine washing will have to be completely abandoned. You can dry the washed item only in a horizontal position. Be sure to carefully consider the label immediately after purchase: the manufacturer probably gave a few more recommendations.
In the closet, fluffy natural sweaters are best stored not on hangers, but on a shelf. For the summer, it is worth putting woolen clothes in storage bags and taking preventive measures against moths.
With careful handling, a beautiful warm sweater made of natural fluffy yarn will delight you for more than one season.
