How to Wear a Red Jumper in 2023

As fashion evolves and new trends come along, so do new ways of styling old staple pieces in our wardrobes. In this article, I will style a red crew neck jumper, and walk you through some fresh outfit ideas for this year.

You don't necessarily need to purchase the pieces of clothing in this article to recreate the outfits. All the outfit ideas are accompanied by a description talking about the "elements of style", which can be applied to similar pieces already present in your wardrobe.

1. With structured pieces:

The red crew neck jumper can be paired with white tailored shorts. Dark brown tall riding boots to complement the bulkiness of the jumper. The combination of tall boots and shorts adds some interest to the outfit while elongating the legs. The dark brown belt with a golden buckle matches the boots and adds a finishing touch to the outfit.

2. With skinny/straight denims:

With skinny and slim denim going out of style, it has been difficult to wear them without the outfit looking dated. One way to make skinny denim look more contemporary is to pair them with tall boots. Additionally, tall boots when worn with high rise skinny denim work to elongate the legs.

This look has been completed with a chunky jumper to compliment the bulkiness of the riding boots. Dark brown belt with golden buckle to bring all the elements of the outfit together.

3. With wide leg high-waisted cropped tailored trousers

Wide-leg high waisted tailored trousers work to complement the bulkiness of the jumper while adding some structure to the outfit. The trousers are high-waisted and cinch the outfit at the waist, immediately making the outfit more interesting. Since the top and bottom half of the outfit have balanced bulkiness, slim dark brown chelsea boots can be worn to complement the structuredness of the trousers. The dark colour of the trousers and the boots work to form a continuous line, elongating the legs.

4. With wide leg high-waisted cropped tailored trousers and white trainers:

This is similar to the outfit described in no. 3, but it is more casual because of the white trainers. Most shoes would look good with the bulky jumper and wide-leg trousers because of the balanced bulkiness at the top and the bottom half of the outfit.

Cropped trousers end at the slimmest part of the ankle, bringing more attention to your footwear. You can wear no-show socks with the trainers or any footwear you wish to draw the eyes to.

5. With high-waisted brown tailored trousers, white trainers and a beige coat:

For this outfit, I chose a palette of red and neutrals (beige, brown, and white), so the red can be the main piece in the outfit. The jumper has been paired with brown high waisted tailored trousers. White trainers to keep the outfit looking fresh. A beige oversized coat adds some structure and ties all elements of the outfit together.
