Layering is more than just adding pieces on top of each other. It’s about creating a balanced look that keeps you warm while still being stylish. Here are some key tips to achieve the perfect layered look:
-
Start with a Base Layer: The base layer should be lightweight and snug. It’s the foundation of your outfit and should offer warmth without bulk.
-
Add a Middle Layer: This layer adds insulation and can be a bit bulkier. It’s where you can experiment with different textures and fabrics.
-
Top It Off: The outer layer provides protection from the elements and adds the final touch to your outfit. It should be functional and fashionable.
-
Play with Proportions: Combine different lengths and silhouettes to create visual interest. Layering doesn’t mean you have to stick to traditional shapes.
-
Accessorise Wisely: Scarves, hats, and gloves not only add warmth but also enhance your outfit. Choose accessories that complement your layers.
-
Balance Colours and Patterns: Keep your layering visually appealing by balancing colours and patterns. Neutral tones can be accented with brighter or patterned pieces.
