How to wear trendy sweaters in Winter 2025
Discover how to wear streetwear cardigans and sweaters: cables, argyle, asymmetric cuts and modern volumes turn knitwear into the must-have of the season.
Have you ever picked up a sweater and instantly known it would stay with you for years? Not just any sweater — not the usual fast-fashion piece that disappears after two washes — but one that lives with you. Winter 2025 is the season of those sweaters: the ones that don’t just keep you warm. Oversized fits that embrace without suffocating, hand-sculpted-looking cables, diamonds and asymmetries that catch the eye and move with you. It’s fashion that makes you feel like yourself, that resists fleeting trends, that survives time like a tactile memory of beauty and care.
Choosing a sweater today is almost a revolutionary act: saying no to throwaway culture and yes to quality you can feel at your fingertips — accompanying every gesture, every quick coffee, every walk under winter lights. It’s that piece you wear lightly but that changes your posture, giving you quiet confidence. Soft yet strong, simple yet complex, effortlessly elegant.
Oversized: architectural volumes rewriting the silhouette
This winter’s oversized sweaters are unapologetically bold. It’s not just about comfort, but about daring proportions that turn the body into urban architecture. Wearing them means balancing: tailored trousers or pencil skirts bring harmony, while retro sneakers or chunky boots keep the street attitude. Contemporary shades carry names that sound like small daily pleasures — macchiato, toasted almond, burnt cherry. And if you’re wondering what to wear under a women’s designer sweater, a lightweight turtleneck or a crisp shirt are perfect allies for sophisticated layering.
The cable-knit sweater: tradition turned sculpture
Cables are no longer a preppy symbol of nostalgia — they’ve become expressive textures, almost soft sculptures. Chunky wool meets glossy silk, classic cables blend with diagonal cuts: the women’s designer cable-knit sweater is made for those who love to play with contrasts and materials. Pair it with a leather mini, cargo trousers, or layer it under oversized blazers and structured coats. Even the argyle sweater, inspired by British heritage, reinvents itself in color-block patterns, brushed wool and metallic details — little strokes of genius.
Asymmetry: the creative side of streetwear
Women’s asymmetric sweaters bring an unexpected rhythm to every outfit: irregular hems, extra-long sleeves, slanted shoulders. Pair them with baggy jeans and chunky loafers for a mix of structure and ease, or with a silk midi skirt and tall boots for discreet sophistication. Asymmetry isn’t accidental — it’s designed to surprise.
Layering and contemporary tones
Experimenting with layers and materials turns every sweater into an experience. Oversized cardigans over fitted turtlenecks or lightweight shirts create playful textures, while colors become wearable pleasures: plum, pistachio, dark chocolate. Proportions, lengths and details make the difference — a long coat, an oversized belt or a pair of ballet flats complete the look and highlight the sweater without weighing it down.
