Turtlenecks Are Back with a Punch

ByMaurilio Amorim

Turtleneck sweaters are one of those winter basics that never go out of style. Every man should have a basic black turtleneck. This Fall the turtle returns, but not in the supporting role of years’ past, but as a leading piece. Texture and bold, jewel-tone colors make this season’s version stand out. When paired with an dark suit or jacket, a bright turtleneck can breathe life back in to the drab black-on-lack from past seasons.

A Cavalli turle with an tone-on-tone jacket. Matching tone-on-tone can be tricky. There's a fine line between hit and miss.

Maison Martin Margiela uses the burnt orange turtle to breathe life into an otherwise monochromatic and bland color pallet.

Another Margiela combo paring a double breasted jacket with a turtle. The collar is too big and bulky for my taste. I prefer a smaller, more streamlined one.

Yes you can pair black with brown. This Ralph Lauren ensemble works well.

Are you a fan of the turtle neck?
