Looking into Wikipedia, we learn that a sweater is a knitted product for the upper body, which has no fasteners. Its distinguishing features are long sleeves and a high collar, tight-fitting neck.

However, in everyday life, under the sweater, we mean other knitwear - jumpers, pullovers, which have no collar.

Therefore, in this article we will look at sweaters in such a broad context.

Features

Having seen somewhere a shortened model of a jumper or sweater, we immediately begin to think about what it is properly called. In fact, quite plain -a cropped sweater or a cropped sweater (cut off from the English “crop”).

The short sweater belongs to the category of solid knitted clothes and has its own distinctive features:

  1. Length. It reaches the waist as much as possible, but it can be significantly higher - just covering the shoulder blades. Young girls often prefer the length just above the navel, which allows you to demonstrate a flat tummy.
  2. Sleeve. May be long or short. It is interesting to look "stretched" models in which the long sleeve covers the hand.
  3. Material. There are no restrictions on the choice of material. This may be a thick yarn or a thin openwork knit, depending on the season.

Who is suitable?

A cropped sweater is perfect for slender girls with a boyish figure. The same applies to owners of the “triangle” figure, who have narrow hips and broad shoulders.

Slender girls with an hourglass figure can also wear wide sweaters, putting them on with tight pants or skirts.

But the owners of wide hips and pronounced buttocks shortened sweater will not work. The only exception is if you wear it as a bottom thing, throwing an elongated cardigan on top.

Models

Oversize

Bulk free models still continue to be popular. Baggy cropped sweater looks very stylish and sexy on slim girls. The volume can be light or very significant. If you are very thin, it is permissible to wear a sweater, which seems to be 4-5 sizes larger. Particularly interesting are models with a “stretched” effect. In a word, a wide cropped sweater is a must have for a fashionista's wardrobe.

With long sleeves

Shorter sweaters with long or even elongated sleeves are in fashion. The image of "Pierrot" is well suited for slim girls, and long sleeves will not allow hands to freeze. If you forget your gloves at home, you can always hide your hands in a knitted fabric.

Short sleeved

It looks interesting cropped sweater with short sleeves. Sleeve length спрос is also in demand.

One of the fashion trends is multi-layered, so such a sweater, worn over the shirt, looks particularly stylish. You will get a look in which not only the bottom of the shirt and the collar will look, but also a significant part of the sleeve. It looks very unusual.

Textured knit

In the fashion volume knitting and unusual texture. It can be geometric weaves, braids, plaits, various patterns. It is best to combine with trousers or skirts with a smooth texture. For example, with jeans or leather leggings.

Fashion trends

In the fashion are dimensionless sweaters, which we have already mentioned above. The volume allows you to model the figure and hide the flaws in the upper part of the body.Especially pay attention to the models in the grunge style of the 90s.

If you like a trend such as multi-layered, a cropped sweater can be worn over a shirt or blouse by throwing a cardigan or jacket over it.

Today asymmetry is relevant, so you should pay attention to the models of unusual cut, which will look very original.

The most fashionable trends are elongated or, conversely, shortened sleeves, a high collar or bare shoulders. The hit of the season - voluminous sleeves that retain heat well.

As for the texture, a wide variety of options are in fashion, so every woman of fashion can choose a sweater to your taste. Pay attention not only to the volume knitting, but also to smooth models with applications, beads, rhinestones and large beads.

The decor should look bright and contrast with the overall color of the product. Such a sweater will allow you to emphasize your individuality and stand out among the rest.

Cashmere

Cashmere is also a natural material that is thinner and softer. It is made from a cashmere goat undercoat. A sweater made of such material is very warm and pleasant to the touch, it is perfect for the autumn-winter period.
