Must-have fashion staple: The Knitted Vest

A hero piece that works in any season

The KnittedVests are certainly not just your sleeveless knits remembered from the 90s, rather a wardrobe essential that could transform your jeans and white t-shirt outfit to something more chic and could work in any season. Off the runway, there was an abundance of sweater vests, worn layered, or alone and with a miniskirt already. They are proof of being the undefeated layering solution that adds umph to your streetwear style.

It is time to keep an eagle eye on the KnittedVest trend. With Gen-Z influencers’ layered knitwear outfits roaming Instagram feeds, the KnittedVest does accomplish a more polished cozy look in a comfortable manner. In North America, various iterations include the argyle knit design with oversized silhouettes, or tunic lengths and boxier cuts for hi-lo outfitting and seasonal layering have emerged among the youth markets with wide appeal.

While splashing bold colors and applying loud prints, make the once traditional silhouette reinvented with such powerful visual impact. The minimalist version of the KnittedVest has its modernist appeal, and the adaptation of both the Fair Isle and more abstract patterns give more of a commercial appeal. The textured knits with intricate trims and finishes add polish, while graphic blocking will definitely create a directional look.
