STYLING A WHITE CARDIGAN

Knitwear doesn’t have to be frumpy or ageing, styling a fitted white cardigan as a top can add a fresh feel to your outfit. Of course, depending on your personal style, a fitted white cardigan might not be ideal for you. So other options like a cropped style, an off-the-shoulder slouchy piece, a peplum hem or an oversized bobble cardigan also make great stylish choices.

Cardigans don’t always have to be worn over tops but can instead be worn as a top, as shown here. When opting for a fitted cardigan, pick a piece that fits you perfectly to avoid the peeping button holes. If your bust is usually an issue, you could opt for a v-neck option for a more sultry outfit that’s not intended as workwear.

This monochrome look is an effortless combination and was perfect for the BHS S/S16 press event & a following lunch meeting. For the cold weather, layering a grey teddy coat over the white cardigan and black tailored cropped trousers, creates a nice contrast and warm ensemble. It’s a classic and simple look that you can adapt and dress up for many occasions. Other ideas for styling a fitted white cardigan include the denim mom skirt for a casual look. Alternatively tucking it into a grey tulle skirt will make for a more flirty dressy outfit.
