Fashion Trends

Men knitwear looks really brutal this autumn and winter. These are hand-knitted sweaters with textured patterns, which wear geologists, loggers and fishermen. However, the coarseness of weave in most cases is an illusion; actually they are knitted from very mild types of weave, merino and cashmere. By the way, these are not only sweaters, but jumpers and cardigans, and jackets, preferably with a hood, patch pockets and zipper on leather hanging loops.
But the thin pullovers and jackets are becoming more universal: they are now allowed to wear even with a strict suit.

The collection of comfortable casual wear will be completed with free and easy cardigans, which because of their fuzzy forms are called a hybrid cardigans and jacket. For their manufacturing lightweight, high-quality types of weave with an emphasis on fluffy pile and boucle.
Models are also interesting in terms of patterns – the perfect base for woven novelties, drawings, “Argyll” (colored diamonds) and strips.

Collar-Scarf

These models are particularly impressive with such a neat, elegant form, they remain comfortable, and so their practicality is guaranteed.

Cardigans
Classic thin cardigans stubbornly hold their positions in the market for two seasons and it seems that we will also observe them in a list of autumn-winter bestseller; the designers offer new models with new, stylish details. Printed images on the cardigans from Zherebkov, various combinations of woven and knitted, fresh and interesting ideas in drawings and woven strips – these are just a few examples of the vast number of innovations Fall-Winter 2008/09.

Tunics and dimensionless models
Nothing is so liberating and relaxing as comfortable loose clothing, as, for example, tunics and sweaters, which this winter have a tendency to grow to unusual sizes. Typically, such broad sweaters are very popular among young people. By the way when buying a good idea to pick up and appropriate pants: fashion experts advise combine tunics and long sweaters with tight jeans.
Very promising seems the trend in terms of patterns and methods for mating, as well as an elongated silhouette models allow any innovations and experiments with patterns, yarns and finishes, which eventually will be combined with a soft, shapeless turn away collar.

Collar-yoke
A characteristic feature of knitwear is oversized, almost formless collar yoke. It is most commonly encountered in routine models of large-scale mating, the design of which involves some exaggeration and crude effects.
Basic colors: neutral tones with a hint of gravel, gray, rough green and indigo.

Thin turtlenecks
Conventional thin turtlenecks are going to break all sales records this winter – the demand for these products dictates fashion style layers. Turtlenecks look very impressive with a stern fitting jacket of velvet – a rather elegant way in the style of 60’s, which is typical for a rock star with a bad reputation. We should also note an interesting idea from Armand Basi, which opens a new look at the combination of clothes: it is associated not only with the shirt, tuxedo but looks very stylish and attractive with a thin sweater, polo.
Basic colors: all fashionable colors of the season, the traditional black, gray and yellow-brown are no less valid.

Ultra-thin jersey
Only the ones with perfect figure with the cherished “six squares” can safely wear these incredibly thin, tight-fitting models. Some options (which we have assembled, Prada and Raf Simons) clinging so tightly, repeating every curve of the body, that the staining in the flesh color will create the illusion of a naked torso. Other designers are not so scrupulous about the shape and color preference classic black and gray tones.
Basic colors: neutral colors, gray and black, burgundy.

Knitted weave
This season is relevant complex intricate weave, giving the product surface texture some volume. Typically, this is the traditional “spit”, “cell” and “gunny”, as well as the dense weave of alternating loops (so-called “moss”) and the structure with interweaving – what everything is made of thick high quality yarn. A key feature of the season is a combination of different patterns and weaves in a silhouette that gives the model a truly three-dimensional effect.
Basic colors: neutral, snowy white, gray, blue and purple.

Decorated patterns
And finally come decorated patterns, which is a trend, but it deserves attention because of the fresh, innovative ideas. Let’s take, for example, Gucci, whose leather trim with rivets creates a sense of rough manual work. And what do you think about models of Burberry and Moschino which are adorned with feathers? In my opinion they look as interesting as decorated heels from Alexander McQueen. Other designers are experimenting with simple harmless applications, ringing over silver belts, beads and optical fringe.
