Ready Or Knit, Fall 2021’s Sweater Trends Are Here
Not to brag, but my style peaks in the fall. I love a sundress as much as the next person, but bundling up in a bunch of cozy sweaters is my favorite thing, maybe ever. And to make it even harder on my (very small) wardrobe, I have a massive crush on fall 2021’s sweater trends. Like, it’s a problem! Someone stop me before my savings account balance hits zero.
But how could you blame me when the sweaters are this cute? The most in-demand styles run the gamut from bold color-blocking options to sweater shrugs staples. And I couldn’t possibly forget to mention the preppy collars that look like they’d be more at home on the steps of The Met with the OG Gossip Girl cast.
There are also some returning trends, too! Cutouts emerged last year as a standout trend and they’re back and better than ever—seriously. Plus, if you didn’t get the chance to test out the western aesthetic even Beyonce herself loved over the summer, fear not; there’s still time to channel your inner cowgirl this fall.
Oh—and sweater vests are still very much a thing this season. But instead of being oversized, this season’s iterations have gotten the tennis club treatment. They’re cropped, colorful and will look so cute paired with a pleated mini skirt.
If you’re ready to ditch your cropped tanks and replace them with some very cushy knits come fall, you’ve come to the right place. Read on to check out all of this season’s biggest trends from all of your favorite sites, like Mango, Zara and H&M. Happy shopping!
