SPRING TREND ALERT: ROLL NECKS & BLAZERS

This Spring, there is one fashion trend that is the same for both men and women, a rarity! Couples who love the twinning game will be thrilled to hear about this one. It’s the roll neck but not just the roll neck – it is to be worn under a jacket.

The most popular pairing we’ve seen on celebrities and influencers is a black polo neck under a grey checked jacket. What we love about this trend is that it is perfect for Spring. We are all so tired of our winter coats and ready to rock our blazers, but the Spring air can be devilish! It may feel warm in the sunshine, but that shade packs a punch! So the roll neck under your jacket not only looks great, but is actually practical too.

A roll neck isn’t a piece of clothing that has been labelled “cool”. It’s something that your university lecturer or some it-guy would wear (Steve Jobs was cool you know). Blazers on the other hand have always been thought to be extremely elegant. So adding a well fitting blazer to your roll neck can actually turn a basic look into a stylish one. A great blazer can even make a boring t-shirt look cool and stylish.

Should you prefer a more laid-back look, you can wear a blazer in neutral tones. This will bring more attention to your blazer. Want to draw attention to your roll neck and create a contrast? Opt for a touch of colour with the roll-neck!

The most important thing about this look is definitely a well fitted blazer, if you don’t have one yet then it’s good to find yourself a professional tailor who can measure you for a custom made jacket. You won’t regret this decision, contact our executive clothiers HERE.
