Fine knit sleeveless sweaters for women: What to wear with them

If fine knit sleeveless sweaters for women make you think of afternoon tea with your grandma, you must not have discovered the fitted styles. This sleeveless cross between a vest and a sweater is available in a wide range of single colors, patterns and with color-contrasting collars – and can be combined to make a look anything from classic to modern and edgy:

Blouses

Stay away from overly conservative blouses with fine knit sleeveless sweaters – this combination looks a bit too much like a girls’ boarding school uniform. Instead: Wear a long silk or fine cotton blouse with your sleeveless sweater. Flowing materials give your body beautiful contours. For a casual break from the style, thin denim shirts or tops with plaid or striped patterns can be combined with fine knit sleeveless sweaters for women. Don’t worry if a bit of bare skin is on display here.

No-Go: Don’t button your blouse all the way up – unless a soft collar makes it necessary.

Pants

Instead of black suit pants, it is better to wear jeggings or leggings with fine knit sleeveless sweaters. For a layered look, choose skinny jeans, tight materials and modern 7/8 length pants or shorts.

No-Go: If your pants are too long to be called shorts but too short to fit in the 7/8 length category, you can end up with a very unfortunate silhouette.

Jackets

Don’t wear fine knit sleeveless sweaters for women with stuffy suit jackets! Modern-cut oversized jackets, kimono jackets or smoking jackets with a low lapel pep up your look and suit V-neck sleeveless sweaters perfectly. For a cool color contrast, hang the coat casually over your shoulders.

No-Go: Sleeveless sweaters that are too short will make your torso look a little on the short side. If the coat has a longer cut, then you should definitely pair it with a long sweater.

Accessories

Unfortunately, your good, old pearl necklace will have to stay in the jewelry box. Long necklaces with charms, statement necklaces and collier necklaces are ideal. Modern gold or silver jewelry is also a great match for knitted tops – but it shouldn’t look too delicate. It’s better to go for chunkier styles like steel chains. When selecting your shoes, choose from brogues, creepers or sneakers.

No-Go: With plain ballerina flats or Mary Janes, fine knit sleeveless sweaters for women just look too uptight.

Fine knit sleeveless sweaters for women also look great in a tried-and-tested twin set combination – but not in the tone-in-tone look. A more modern look is a combination of jacket and sleeveless sweater made from the same material but in different colors. A bit of lipstick and a loose ponytail will create a sweet 50s look.

For a look that’s anything but stuffy! Fresh colors and striking accessories make fine knit sleeveless sweaters for women a trendy alternative to a vest or cardigan.
