Fashion People Keep Buying 2 of the Exact Same Sweater—This Is Why
We found the chicest affordable sweaters to copy the look with.
The notion of ordering two sweaters in the same color and style may seem a bit frivolous, but to wear the season's key sweater outfit, it's kind of a requirement. The preppy, '90s-inspired styling trick of draping a sweater over your shoulders isn't brand-new, but the latest iteration of it is to wear a sweater with the exact same sweater draped over your shoulders. It's monochromatic dressing at its most decadent.
Jennifer Lawrence is one of the celebrity fans of the double-sweater styling trend, and she was photographed last week wearing two brown cashmere sweaters (well, one from The Row's S/S 26 runway that gives the illusion of wearing two). To take the outfit even further into '90s territory, she paired the sweaters with a knee-length skirt and elegant pumps. The good news is that there are plenty of affordable sweaters that make buying two of them not quite as off-putting, and below, I shopped out a handful of the chicest low-cost options to buy doubles of. Scroll to let your double-sweater draping begin.
