Things that Harry Styles, Gucci, and your grandpa's wardrobe have in common
Sandals, cycling shorts, and cargo pants: these are all trends that have unexpectedly made a comeback recently. And we can now add a new item to this list of trends: the knitted vest.
Secretly, I have had two of these items in my closet for a while. And although they slowly disappeared to the back of the closet, it seems it's time to bring them out again. Because it's true: the knitted vest is back in style. How do you wear it? For example, with a large blouse underneath, or just loose. The options are endless and believe me: you will see this item everywhere this autumn. Who would have thought that grandpa's closet would suddenly become very fashionable.

If you had asked us a few seasons ago what we thought of this trend, I think we wouldn't have reacted very enthusiastically. But nothing could be further from the truth because the knitted vest is completely back. That comeback started a while ago at Burberry and Gucci; these brands were inspired by none other than Harry Styles, who we have spotted multiple times in a knitted vest. He wears them, for example, with a sheep pattern, a polka dot, and a print that suspiciously resembles something from your grandpa's closet. The knitted vest is also slowly making a comeback in stores. Can we now say that the wool vest will be the item of autumn? I think so.
We have looked into where you can score the best ones and how to combine them. Are you going for stripes? Or would you prefer gray?
