Style Risks for Fall: Chunky Turtlenecks and Layered Jackets

We had our in-house aces at Studio N create imagery depicting a few calculated style risks for the upcoming cold season. Because sometimes it’s good step outside your comfort zone.

Style risk: work a chunky turtleneck sweater into your outfits. Wear your chunky turtleneck (this really just means a heavier weight turtleneck sweater) with jeans and a casual coat. You should probably not wear your chunky turtleneck with a blazer: you could look like Pierce Brosnan in Remington Steele. Frankly, it’s just not a modern look. But chunky turtleneck + jeans + casual coat = winner. And by casual coat we mean a work jacket, chore coat, utility jacket, anything boxy and slightly oversized so you don’t render your weighty knit an uncomfortable burden.

Style risk: layer a thin jacket underneath a topcoat. Within reason, layering multiple jackets is a good look. Not 100 coats at the same time. But a middle piece like a shirt jacket or denim jacket can be very smart-looking. It’s a way to be playful with your look and introduce a complementary color or texture. It also lets your topcoat (or another roomy coat like rain jacket, parka, or mac–mackintosh jacket if you hate abbreviations) be what it is. Your finishing move.
