28 October 2015 www.womanthismonth.com FASHION | trend Another winter is here and we can’t get through the few cool months (maybe one or two) we have on the island without wearing a funky knit piece. So choose carefully to find a must-have item and don’t be afraid to wear it. Cool jumpers and small accessories are the most common pieces to adapt this trend to our weather. Bulky, knitted material was not traditionally to be found amongst the high-end and fine designs, however, year by year it’s conquering the market and finding its place in the spotlight. Many designers had already introduced knitted pieces in their last autumn and winter collections and just reinforced their appearance this season. Others embraced the weave this year and will probably keep it in their next cold days collection. Run away from tired old long-line sweaters and invest in elegant pieces such as dresses and trousers. They can be a great update to your trans-seasonal wardrobe. Dresses with long sleeves and turtlenecks are the ones to go for and are best paired with tights when the cool breezes finally reach us. Blumarine showed its knit collection in shades of baby blue, lavender and blush pink. Max Mara created a catwalk show with classic cuts and long sweaters; an inspiration that reminds us of 1930s style. The Italian cold winter is the best scenario to imagine Salvatore Ferragamo’s oversized knits. Pick your favourite thread work and heat things up!
