Sustainability is becoming essential in the current world. With sustainable fashion, comes new trends and techniques that many influencers and supermodels are opting to encourage while looking fashionable at the same time. Layering basic pieces of clothing sounds super easy but many times it does not come out the way you imagine it in your head. That’s when basic tips and tricks enter. Layering basic pieces that you already possess can make you look like a runway model and bring all the praise your way.
So here is a small guide on a few easy ways of layering.
Wearing turtlenecks under oversized tees is the comfiest way to wear your summer wardrobe in winters. It gives off the e-girl vibe which is so much in trend right now. You can opt for a basic black or white full-sleeved shirt or high-neck with the same color as the tee. Or for more vibrancy, you can choose contrasting colors too.
To add more warmth, pairing a chunky loose sweater with a turtleneck is your safest bet with it being equally stylish. It gives off an effortlessly cool look that we all are obsessed with.
For a more trendy look, you can replace the junky sweater with a sweater vest. Yes, you heard it right! Sweater vests are back again and are totally worth the hype.
Many times we want to wear our spaghetti sleeved dresses and tops but oh boy, it’s not comfortable. That’s when layering gets in and there you can wear a well fit high neck, or a mesh top underneath and flaunt the beautiful elegant look that is comfortable too.
Another basic layering technique is wearing your simple buttoned shirt as a light jacket and pair with a camisole for a casual day look which is super edgy.
Lastly, a more winter-appropriate trend is layering your hoodie with an oversized jacket or coat and get that fashionable cozy look on a cold chilly day.
Many Indian influencers like Komal Pandey and Dolly Singh also layer jackets and coats with Indian clothing items like Sarees and Lehengas. Layering not only makes you look bold and stylish, but also provides for comfort and a setback look.
