Layering is fundamental in late fall, especially when it starts encroaching on winter. Currently, we're still in that sweet spot where you don't have to wear two shirts under three sweaters and one coat so big you can't even lift your arms. Which means it's time to take advantage of some statement tops. Fortunately, there are lots of cool turtlenecks out there you'll be dying to flaunt.
In case you haven't noticed, there's been an onslaught of sheer, photorealistic turtlenecks. (Naturally, you'll need to sport something underneath.) Not that we're complaining, of course. In one instance, MM6 Maison Margiela takes an otherworldly approach. While JW Anderson decides to take a scenic car ride. You have to wear these solo for onlookers to really get the full picture.
Texture also demands to be seen. Like Acne Studios' crinkled satin version. Mugler's black turtleneck includes asymmetric perforated detailing and Song for the Mute's bright blue open knit top is heavily distressed. Strategic shirring makes Avavav's orange creation pretty eye-catching.
Prices vary. The designer versions obviously cost a bit more. Although, JW Anderson's road trip is pretty reasonable at $151. We have managed to track down a few faster fashion options. Mango's delicately draped satin blouse is perfect for the office. AFRM offers a cost-friendly leopard creation and a sleek metallic number. Then there's & Other Stories' rib-knit top in a vibrant shade of orange.
Scroll down to shop the best cool turtlenecks to introduce into your fall wardrobe immediately. You'll only be able to rock them solo for a limited time so go ahead and opt for express shipping.
