MENS | THE ART OF LAYERING

Layering this season is a necessity. Achieving functionality and the ultimate aesthetic for your winter ensembles can be mastered through the art of layering. The colder months can be unpredictable however, layering can easily be adapted to suit the changing climate. The anatomy of a layered look can be executed with these quick tips:

Base layers are key when prepping your cold-weather layered attire. The idea is to keep lightweight and breathable pieces as the base layer, shirts as the inner layer, sweaters, knits, blazers and cardigans as the middle and coats as the final touch.

Add the Seersucker Cotton Check Shirt and finish off with The Amsterdam Parker for an on-trend look.

The use of various fabrics can enhance your final ensemble by adding contrast and depth. Adding textures can be a simple way of altering the dynamic of your fit.

Incorporating patterns in your layered ensemble makes for a truly eye-catching look. When opting for a print it’s best to incorporate the smaller print on the inner layer and gradually build to a larger print on the outer layer; or vice-versa.  Style the Brushed Cotton Check Shirt with a base colour such as the Garment Dye Tee to the hero the pattern and create a standard-out ensemble.
