Fashion trend 2022: The rainbow sweater is moving in with us from now on

Rainbow sweater against the winter blues
Why these color wonders are now moving into our closets

In our opinion, there is currently no more beautiful piece of clothing that counteracts the winter blues as well as the rainbow sweater. We’ll tell you how to best combine it and how you can have fun with the trend piece for a long time.

When the warm days are over and we have to fetch down jackets and lined boots from the basement, it can depress our mood. Although the winter time has its own charm, saying goodbye to the warm summer sun is difficult – all the better that we can put a good mood in the closet with Rainbow sweaters.

In the transitional period, thinner T-shirts and summer dresses find their way into the closet and cloth trousers, 7/8-length jeans, knitted sweaters, sneakers and boots into the closet. It’s still too early for the thick winter clothes, colorful rainbow sweaters fit all the better. Because it not only catapults itself into the number one mood brightener of the season thanks to its bright colors, but is also a real all-round talent when it comes to styling.

Rainbow sweater: This is how we casually style the fall it-piece

A simple pair of jeans (also in white) and sporty sneakers are the perfect choice to keep the sweater in focus. So that your outfit doesn’t unintentionally make you appear younger (yes, a rainbow sweater can otherwise easily give a childish impression), we rely on cool accessories such as chunky bracelets. Boyfriend jeans or jeans with a used look also give the pullover a coolness upgrade.

This is how we give the it piece an elegant touch

For an elegant touch, we rely on the combination with a pleated skirt in delicate tones, such as metallic pink or light beige. If that seems too boring for you, you can also mix floral patterns with the rainbow sweater. The result: ultra-feminine and ultra-stylish! And if you really want to score points in the style duel, give the jumper a Bubi collar in white (or wear a white blouse with a striking collar underneath).

One variant: the rainbow cardigan

For the onion locomotive, the cardigan in the rainbow design is also a great eye-catcher for autumn. It can be perfectly combined with a shirt dress or with a shirt and jeans. The cardigan also looks particularly pretty with white jeans with a straight cut. The braver among us wear the cardigan over a jumpsuit (preferably in pastel shades). Gold jewellery, such as smaller hoop earrings with or without pearls, enhance the look perfectly.

Right material + gentle care

Sweater is the same sweater? None! With the rainbow sweater or cardigan, it can happen that it looks washed out after a few months due to its different colors. To prevent this from happening, the quality of the sweater is important. Natural fibers such as cotton are particularly suitable because they are not only kind to the skin, but are also easy to clean and remove dirt. Chemical fibers such as viscose, modal, cupro or lyocell also have the advantage that they are easy to care for in the wash and when drying.

What else needs to be considered so that you can have fun with your it-piece for a long time? It is best to wash the jumper or cardigan by hand first to see whether the trend pieces will rub off. If not, they can be turned inside out in the washing machine along with the rest of the colored laundry and washed at 30-40 degrees with a low spin speed.
