A sweater is a wardrobe staple that suits any combination while remaining unique. With various cuts, prints, and designs, sweaters were showcased in countless forms and styles during the Fall-Winter 2024 season in Milan.

Opt for a casual style: fashion houses encourage us to focus on minimalist and sleek sweaters that can easily integrate into a basic everyday look. Models with round or V-neck collars can be paired with jewelry to give the outfit a polished finish.

Oversized sweaters are also in the spotlight, continuing to hold their place in fashion. With a relaxed cut, these options bring a laid-back vibe, highlighting the personal style of those who wear them. The volume allows pairing with maxi or midi skirts, as well as dresses; a belt or thin sash can accentuate the waistline. Leather pants add balance to oversized sweaters, while playful "distressed" knit details bring extra character.

A high collar is an ideal choice for colder days, keeping the neck warm and even substituting a scarf. The collar can be a sturdy stand-up or casually folded in several layers.

Look for Angora and wool sweaters to keep cozy. A long, fluffy sweater pairs perfectly with jeans or classic trousers. Complete the look with Chelsea boots or knee-highs and low-cut Uggs for a cozy touch. A coat, a stole, or a puffer jacket will add the final touch to your warm fall-winter ensemble.
