Whatever you prefer call it a slip over, a tank top or a knitted vest, this winter knitwear trend is everywhere. In anticipation of this, I began searching through the rails of my local charity shops but came out empty handed! However, I haven’t given up, I want a pure wool vintage men’s version, like the one my Granddad use to wear as he pottered around his greenhouse.
A Winter Knitwear trend that’s selling out fast . . .
Do you know? In the name of sustainability, I searched all my local charity shops first, but could not find one man’s or women’s knitted slip-over. I ended up buying one a couple of weeks ago and it has already sold out! Having searched more online stores, I found they either didn’t have any or had sold out the styles they did have. I think this proves this trend has been under the radar for some time

Excellent for layering . . .
With the UK weather being, lets call it ‘challenging’ layers are essential, for instance in this picture I was wearing a t-shirt under my white shirt then the slip over on the top. It was pouring with rain when we took these pictures, I was actually very damp!

Oh dear, I have a number of vests (not quite oversized but still vests) and I was about to get rid of them. I suppose I’ll have to rethink that one. I had no idea they’re back in style. Thanks for the heads up 🙂

LornaHi Lorna,
I throw out things or donate to charity, just when the tide of fashion/style turns and always regret it. Vest are great for layering during the colder months, maybe keep and wear for one more season?
