Striped sweaters
A sweater is a knitted product designed for the upper body without fasteners. It is characterized by the presence of long sleeves and a high two- or three-layer collar.
In everyday life, they include pullovers and jumpers, although they do not have a high collar. It is in this broad context that sweaters will be discussed in this article.
Types and types of stripes
There are so many types of stripes that sometimes it is not clear whether the “zebra” is either black with white stripes, or white with black. They differ in direction (horizontal, vertical and diagonal), color combination (two-color and multi-color), width (narrow and wide).
The combination of different types creates many types: from the classic "vest" to a colorful paradise of stripes of all possible widths and shapes.
This year, thin stripes of delicate colors and their various combinations are in fashion.
Selection Tips
A striped sweater can be the best friend for any woman, because in it you can look bright and elegant at the same time. It will help to favorably highlight the advantages of the figure or hide the flaws, but for this it is necessary to follow several rules when choosing a model.
A vertical, especially thin, strip is ideal for girls who are short or curvy, because it visually stretches and slims. Horizontal stripes are not recommended for them, as you will appear lower and wider, but they look good on thin and tall ones.
In addition, they can be used to accentuate the chest, waist or hips, so they are good for those who have an expressionless figure.
It is important to consider not only the direction of the stripes, but also their width and color. A light wide stripe on the chest will visually enlarge it, a dark one, on the contrary, will mask problem areas, and oblique lines will emphasize a graceful waist.
Owners of slender bodies can afford the most daring experiments with line drawings of all kinds.
What to wear with?
Striped sweaters are truly versatile, because they can be made an attribute of both everyday attire and business. They are best paired with trousers, jeans, a miniskirt and a pencil skirt or shorts. You can wear a jacket over the jumper and pullover. The best part is that the look can be completed with any type of footwear, from boots to high-heeled shoes.
Striped sweaters diversify any wardrobe, the main thing is to remember one important rule: all other clothes, shoes and accessories must be used in plain colors. Moreover, their colors should be the more neutral, the brighter the top.
Someone underestimates the linear drawing, someone is afraid of it and deliberately avoids it, but it can be an excellent acquisition for any fashionista's closet. Striped elements constantly appear in the collections of the world's top couturiers. Feel free to experiment and you will be pleasantly surprised by the result!
