Cozy Up With a Classy Cardigan this Spring
February 12, 2009
The Fashion Gods have Spoke: Cardigans are the staple item for any wardrobe this Spring. Ken Downing, Fashion Director at Neiman Marcus, released his 9 ‘must haves’ for this fashion season, and when this icon in the industry speaks, fashionistas, listen up.
Downing has an uncanny knack and love for fashion, and advises women to consider colorful cardigans the new jacket.
Cardigans are simple and versatile. This wardrobe essential adds polish to dresses and separates; and to really add a touch of personality and style try belting a cardigan over jeans with your favorite pair of flats.
“I’m a true believer in seasonless dressing and fabrics. I think we all understand that it’s hot all over the world and you can layer. It’s not about traditional heavy wool clothes anymore. [It’s about] a little cardigan or a lightweight jacket,” says Downing.
With a skirt, over a cami or to dress up a pair of Sevens, cardigans are timeless. Our mother’s mother wore them and this is one piece that every woman should have accessible for the upcoming months to create the classiest of looks this Spring.
