What’s the easiest way to bring the comfort of our stay-at-home style into our everyday lives? Knit tops and matching skirts, of course. The chic duo has become a universally flattering outfit combination we can’t seem to get enough of. From the Parisian sidewalks to the cobblestones in New York City, the street style stars are also on board, wearing prismatic crochet and ribbed co-ords. Paloma Elsesser demonstrated the unofficial cool-girl uniform with a green mini skirt set paired with Adidas sneakers. While other style stars selected midi-lengths and elegant heels.
Of course, the knit set trend is nothing new. Our editors have been waxing poetic over the no-fail woven duos for over a year now. “For me, the ease of a structured knitwear set fulfills my desire to look put-together and simultaneously comfortable,” explains Rickie De Sole, Vogue’s Executive Fashion Director.
In the same vein, designers are anchoring collections with their own iterations. Christopher Esber put a sexy twist on the label’s space-dyed pieces with unexpected cutouts, while Jonathan Simkhai went the preppy route with striped polos. Over at Bottega Veneta, it was all about showing off the legs with neon micro mini knit skirts.
Whether you’re into minimalist styles similar to Altuzarra’s classic take or want to make a statement in Wales Bonner’s spritely colors, you’re sure to find something in our roundup of the best knit tops and matching skirts, below.
