Sweater coats are a staple of the Fall/Winter 2010 wardrobe. They range from thin and
cardigan-like (for layering) to
thick, warm , and winter coat-like (for outerwear).
They can accent your cool-weather ensemble in one of two ways: a very flattering way, or a sloppy, robe-like way. There is no one particular silhouette to look out for; just
avoid sweater coats that are too tight -you should be able to button it without gapping-
and that are too loose -there should be at least a hint that a woman's figure is under the sweater:
it should not look like an amorphous sweater monster with a head and legs poking through.
Since sweater coats come in a variety of silhouettes, colors, and textures, one can be found for almost any outfit. However, this season layer cardigan-like ones over ultra-feminine dresses (pictured left), and wear thick, warm ones as a coat -with a chunky scarf and thin leather gloves- over any cool-weather ensemble.
