Coarse or fine-meshed: Knitted dresses have become an indispensable part of many women’s wardrobes. They flatter every figure and combine comfort and design in just one piece of clothing. That makes them real trendsetters – this autumn too.
Knit dresses have been around for longer than many people think: as early as the 1960s and 1970s, fine or coarse-meshed materials such as cotton, polyacrylic, viscose or wool were used to make warm clothes for the cold winter. And even then, strong colors and graphic patterns were very popular with the wearers – as were turtlenecks. The only difference was that most knitted dresses were cut very short, whereas today long models and oversized looks dominate the world’s catwalks. However, depending on the manufacturer, the length, cut and knitting pattern can still vary. In the following, we will tell you which fashion trends are back (or again) hip this autumn.
Knit dresses in an oversize look
In the past, knitted dresses were often form-fitting to emphasize the female silhouette, but today many women prefer the so-called Oversize look: Loose cuts that do not hug the body – but rather hide the silhouette. It is less about inferiority complexes and more about the desire to wear something comfortable. In addition, large knitted dresses leave more space for additional clothing underneath on cold days to keep the body warm. And if we are honest, it ultimately depends on us being comfortable with what we are wearing. It is therefore hardly surprising that the oversize look is too Knitted dress trends counts.
Knitted dresses for women with curves
Even if it is said that coarse stitches can be applied, there is a large selection of (fine-meshed) knitted dresses for curvy women. To hide the hips, but to emphasize the waist, are A-line shaped or straight cuts and dark colors are good choices. If you prefer to distract from the center of your body, you can draw your gaze to your neckline – with eye-catching patterns, ruffles or applications. Midi dresses can even visually stretch the figure, in combination with seamless underwear or shapewear, the knitted dress can also be tighter – without bulging. In this way, you can perfectly stage your feminine curves this autumn too.
Knitted dresses in autumnal design
Just in time for the golden season, there are many models in autumn tones or with autumnal décor: The current knitted dress trends for 2021 are above all Norwegian pattern, Block stripes and also Check pattern. The color palette, on the other hand, ranges from Rust brown and Bordeaux red through olive green and ocher through mustard yellow and beige to midnight blue and gray. Whether coarse or fine knit is up to personal taste. And of course there are knitted dresses in the autumn look for every figure type – and also oversize variants. As soon as the temperatures drop and the evenings get fresher, bring the warm clothes fashionably through the cold season (and beyond).
Knitted dresses for everyday (professional) life
There rough knitting pattern appear more cozy and casual, they embody the ideal leisure look. For the (more conservative) everyday office life, on the other hand, tight-knit clothes are the better choice, as they look more elegant and subtle. Plain colors like anthracite, black or beige are just as possible as classic gray tones. And also blue knitted dresses underline the business look.
