Shop the post: Revisiting the grey V-neck
Something I’ve not given a moment’s notice to in a long while, then suddenly I can’t stop thinking about it – the evergreen grey V neck! Was it the 90s-style high V sweater on the Calvin Klein AW25 runway? Or Becky Malinsky’s ‘5 Things’ newsletter back in January? I can’t be sure, but it was certainly cemented by Bibi Breslin’s Paris Fashion Week street style photo (above and below) – giving Esther Canadas in 1990s Donna Karan vibes.
Anyone can wear a grey V-neck, and it requires the easiest of accessories to switch things up – sunglasses, a thin woven belt, plus a tiny, shiny bag like Bibi’s, a well-worn giant tote* or utilitarian waist belt*. (The sweater itself doubles as its own accessory of course, tied in multiple ways – over necks, shoulders, bums and waists.)
While it’s still a bit on the cool side, I’m wearing last season’s MHL thick wool V-neck over a Uniqlo U tee* with baggy Jigsaw cords and a calf leather belt. For summer, I’m after something slightly – or very – oversized, with enough extra to tuck in, to wear over a picot-edged vest, with Jigsaw Bermuda shorts* and loafers. Or for something more polished, a fitted, high-v sweater* with tailored linen trousers and a dressy mid-heel.
