Episode 51 - How to layer

Another style dilemma I am often asked to solve involves helping my clients with layering their clothing.  Whether its for warmth or style it can be challenging in both instances.  

Layering is often in three or more parts:

1.  Base layer garments:  sports bras,  singlets,  camisoles,  slips,  thermals.  

2.  Mid layers:  t shirts,  shorts,  long sleeved tops,  thermals

3.  Outer layers:  jackets,  jerseys/sweaters,  blazers, coats,  rain jackets

 

Why do we layer:

 

1. Warmth / insulation 
2. To keep cool
3. Style / creativity
4. To cover up lumps and bumos
5. To give visual balance
6. To give you shape
7. To combine pattern and colour
8. To wear hard to match pieces
9. To wear pieces trans-seasonally 
10. For fun!
