Creativity and basic pieces: 3 ways to wear a roll neck

Throughout the entire cold season of ‘19-‘20, an unexpected “basic” piece appeared in the styling of modern outfits. It is a piece that does not boast of an exorbitant price, it is never offered in a difficult print to match, it does not have a cut that prohibits it to any figure, style or age.

It’s the basic roll neck. Practical and comfortable, democratic and stylistically neutral, the little secret of a warm outfit created with minimal volume, the roll neck became the basic choice for many of the women who dress stylish even on the coldest days. Worn underneath shirts, dresses or jackets, the roll neck is the type of clothing that helps you quickly update your winter wardrobe, with minimal investment.

For added inspiration, here are three modern styling ideas that you can integrate into your everyday outfits.

1. If you are tired of wearing shirts underneath the jacket, opt for a colorful helmet, possibly a pattern with a textured embossing. Having a more relaxed look than an office style shirt, the simple line of the roll neck helps it to remain semi-elegant, suited to an office outfit. An option to add to the outfit a modern touch is to wear the same color of jacket and roll neck. As a final touch, add an oversized coat or jacket and you will no longer need to wear a scarf. #winner

2. Combining as many outfits as possible with each of your wardrobe pieces is one of the ways to approach sustainable fashion, to gradually move away from consumerism and to depreciate your investments in wardrobe. Matching a fine roll neck, which closely follows the body line, to a slim shirt with light tailoring means wearing the shirt several times, especially outside its typical season. Experiment with complementary shades: for example, you can match a dark pink roll neck underneath a shirt with a viscose-white-pink floral print. If you feel bold, choose either an animal print turtleneck and a vertical striped shirt, or a horizontal striped turtleneck and a floral print blouse.

3. To emphasize the roll neck, regardless of its color, style it as simple as possible. Do not hide it under a sweater at the base of the neck, but wear it under a piece with a deep V-neckline or one that can be left semi-open. How about wearing it under a denim jumpsuit or under a shirt dress, with the zipper or buttons left open?
