Knitwear is everywhere at the moment, especially in menswear. From the rise of all-season knits to statement sweaters, the Fall/Winter 2022 runways were filled with experimental trends. A host of luxury brands like Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Versace, Burberry, Zegna, Balmain, Dior, Jacquemus, and others showcased their take on these woollen fabrics in their own way.
Over the years, knitwear has evolved what first started out as ugly sweaters that are worn on Christmas Day eventually upgraded to becoming a red-carpet look.
Think Harry Styles' grandpa-chic sweater vest, or the time his JW Anderson multi-coloured cardigan went viral, and fans started knitting their own versions of it. Similarly, Kanye West built an entire fashion empire with Yeezy, where knits were a major highlight.
A winter staple, the key knitwear piece that is a must-have for men is a lightweight crew neck jumper, which remains classic and is extremely versatile in terms of styling. "The Indian audience not only keeps up with trends, but has also started focusing on the functionality of garments - this is especially pertinent to winter wear," explains a spokesperson of Jack & Jones, India.
