The Coolest Outfits From Paris to Antwerp Feature This Item, Starting at $34
Cherry red has burst onto the scene as fashion's must-have color trend this year. We've seen the bright, bold shade dominate in everything from bags to dresses to shoes, but perhaps the easiest (and coolest) way to wear the scarlet shade is through none other than a classic sweater. You see, red can be an intimidating hue to embrace, especially for anyone who relishes in the ease of wearing neutrals. If you've felt like this trend was one you wanted to try but couldn't figure out how, a red knit just might be the answer you were looking for.
Not only is this bubbling micro trend an easy way to dip your toe into the bold hue, but it's also a piece that is featured in some of the coolest Instagram posts we've laid eyes on all fall. In fact, fashion people in cities all over the map are agreeing on this one. We charted the course of the red-sweater trend from the boulevards of Paris and the cobblestone streets of Antwerp to New York and London's best dressed city blocks. Here, take a look at the myriad of cool styling ideas, from creative to casual, and, of course, shop our favorite red sweaters along the way.
In Paris, simple '90s basics like a tailored miniskirt and flats are all you need for an easy red-sweater outfit.
Layering on the red knits is a power move that pays off 100% of the time. Try a twinset with a knit dress and cardigan like Abi did here.
Throwing a red pullover sweater atop a plain white tee and jeans adds the perfect hint of trendiness to an otherwise simple outfit base. The key is to let the collar of your tee peek out from underneath the sweater for added visual interest.
Take it from an editor: Red and pink is the next It color combination. If you're feeling adventurous, accessorize a red sweater with a Barbie-pink accessory or two.
Casually elite—that's how I'd describe this look involving relaxed trousers, loafers, and a slouchy red sweater that's easy and cool.
Even if you're in the most committed relationship with your neutrals, don't overlook the power that a pop of red can have on your everyday outfits. Per this example, it plays well with charcoal gray, which is having a moment right now.
Skip a jacket and just wear a thin turtleneck underneath your sweater so the bold knit can really get some proper airtime.
We're already thinking about spring, when we'll be wearing lighter and sleeveless red knits with classic blue jeans—a fail-safe move that looks like you put in way more effort than you actually did, thanks to the fact that the bright hue basically styles itself.
If you're lucky enough to be escaping somewhere warm this winter, translate the trend by wearing a red knit with relaxed shorts and flats.
