Guido Maria Kretschmer reveals which item should really be in every wardrobe. A piece that you can buy once and wear forever…
The one thing you reach for in the morning when you have to go quickly. That gets us through lunch meetings and after-work dates in style. That accompanies and protects us in summer and winter. And that should not be missing from any suitcase or vacation.
A favorite piece of clothing like this has a lot of demands to fulfill. But if we choose it carefully, it saves us a lot of time and effort in everyday life. Because no matter how stressful it gets, we know: we can’t go wrong with this part. But how do we choose it?
That’s what we wanted in our interview Guido Maria Kretschmer, who immediately goes through his studio in his head, looks briefly into the air, thinks, but then answers decisively: that’s the cardigan!
Buy once, wear always – the cardigan is a “real all-rounder”
“Cardigans have experienced a big revival and many people bought them last season,” Guido continues, which is again a lasting argument for the good piece. After all, you don’t even have to buy them new – assuming you have them about a high-quality item. “It has to be made of a nice material, doesn’t fluff and stays in shape,” are Guido’s tips that you should pay attention to when buying a piece. “If it’s one that’s well cut, that can be used at home and outside – and that you can style well,” then you can never go wrong with a Cadigan.
We’ve got you a few beautiful, timeless models picked out, but see for yourself.
Speaking of styling… here the Cadigan also takes a load of thought off our shoulders by always gently caressing them instead. The knitted years can be combined with almost anything, so you don’t have to worry about it: “Very simply with a shirt, with a blouse underneath, I would say a cardigan always works,” advises Guido.
If you’re still having a hard time getting a jacket for spring, when the shop windows already scream summer, Guido will take your last doubts away: “In a cool, neutral color, it can be used all year round. You can too “You can take it with you on vacation when it gets cold in the evening, just as you can wear it with a blouse in the office. I believe in the cardigan, it’s the modern cardigan, a real all-rounder,” he enthuses in our interview . And if Guido Maria Kretschmer is so enthusiastic about a fashion item, we can hardly go wrong with it!
