On a cold winter’s day, you may not be feeling your similarly drab black pullovers. This situation calls for a cheerful 2024 trend: bright red sweaters.
We are seeing the color everywhere: red tights, red handbags, and red bows. And it’s not just popping up in street style. The Pantone colors “Fiery Red” and “Dear Dahlia” have also become indispensable on the catwalk.
So it’s no wonder that our sweater collection is also getting a red addition, just in time for the holiday season.
This sweater trend comes in a variety of cuts. Balloon sleeves give the piece a touch of romance, as can be seen in pieces from brands such as Ferragamo or Reformation this season. Or you can opt for a classic, straight-lined silhouette for any occasion. The cashmere version exudes Parisian chic, while a cotton sweater is a casual statement piece and a good vegan alternative.
Since the red sweater already acts as a statement, the rest of the outfit is easy to put together. Just pair with your favorite jeans as the icing on the cake to a colorless outfit, like Bella Hadid.
Or you can pair your sweater with a skirt. With a miniskirt and knee-high boots—two other trends of the season—the red sweater looks totally romantic, with a dose of French chic.
It’s also worth paying attention to the balance of the rest of the outfit. Wide-cut styles are perfect with narrow bottoms such as skinny jeans, while narrow cuts go perfectly with wide fabric pants.
Red sweaters also work wonderfully as bright eye-catchers between cozy layers, perfect for cold winter days. Red really comes into its own when combined with different shades of gray, as Alyah Chanelle Scott from The Sex Lives of College Girls shows.
