Of all the autumn trends, the knitted vest trend is easily the most prolific of the season. Although it started doing the rounds last winter, for 2021, it’s being embraced on a scale previously unseen.
Having shaken off the majority of its Grandad and Chandler Bing references, the knitted vest is perhaps the most fashion-forward investment you can make this autumn, and you need only consult the autumn/winter 2021 runways for proof.
