Graphic Knitwear - Male Trend

Moving on from colour, graphic statement knits are set to become a key piece within menswear this season. With a wide range of patterns – from colour-blocking and paneling to stripes and geometric shapes – rather than traditional graphic images (like you would find on tees) being applied to knitwear.

Marni and Jil Sander were just two designers who showcased on point graphic knits within their AW13 collections. In particular, the crossed sashes at Jil Sander and the cut and sew panels at Marni were extremely wearable.

The great thing about graphic knitwear is that it’s able to create a real statement of intent when worn as a top layer and could look really chic when having a turtle neck cotton jumper underneath the jumper.
