Once reserved for the gym and lazy weekends, the sweatshirt has emerged as a high fashion hero, regularly appearing on top tier runways and consistently selling out at luxury retailers. The sweater often incorporated a particular print of the season in a easy and fun way as mine here full of American Dollar notes. The range has become wider and fabrications have evolved past typical jersey now to jacquard, leather or fur. Designers are infusing details like quilting, zippers, embroidered symbols etc, to help elevate the look of a style that is known to be quite casual. Decoration is key to their success and I think people are really trying to buy something with an element of originality in it. To some extent they have become an alternative to the fine knit sweater; there is the obvious street-wear pick up, but also they look great over a shirt and under sports jackets. It can be a modern way of dressing, feeling comfortable and still looking "pulled" together. It is not just a trend, it's actually a wardrobe staple.
I am wearing it with a mao-collared white shirt and slim jeans rolled up. Those cool black shoes with tacks all over are not worn very often but if I do, they just rock every outfit. A dark leather biker it's always a great option with almost every outfit and a dark grey beanie matching the sweater, gives the last touch to my look.
