4 ways to style your chunky knits
They can be used to dress an outfit up or down, they last for many seasons, and they’re just so comfortable! It’s time to pull those chunky knits from the back of your wardrobe (or shop new ones) and allow them to take centre stage as you style your way through autumn and winter.
1. Play with texture
Pair your oversized chunky knit with fitted trousers in a smooth fabric, like faux leather, or opt for ribbed pants that add their own texture to the look. Bring balance with a pair of shoes that match the bulkier top – combat boots or those with embellishments work well to add more personality to the look. Add the finishing touches – accessories that add their own appeal, like a beaded necklace or drop earrings with linen flowers.

2. Chunky top, skimpy bottom
A mini skirt paired with stockings brings a feminine and flirty touch to a chunky knit. You could also finish off the look with a pair of frilly socks or sheer, patterned socks – but make sure they’re visible. Brogues or shoes that have a more masculine edge to tilt the style scale and balance the look.
@stylesbynikkie Effortlessly cozy yet elevated 🍁 Pairing a mini skirt with a chunky sweater is my go-to for fall! Style tip: Choose contrasting textures—think soft knits with leather or denim skirts. For a seasonal touch, add tights and knee-high boots to stay warm and stylish. Would you rock this combo? 💬 Share your thoughts below!

3. Pair with a flowy bottom
The appeal of maxi and midi skirts and dresses last well into winter, if you pair them with the right layers. A chunky knit acts as anchor, keeping a flowy bottom in place while allowing you to enjoy the cosiness they provide during winter. Pick a pleated skirt if you’re looking for something that can be dressed up for a work meeting and down for a day at the mall.

4. All dressed up
Chunky knits don’t only exist in jersey form – this season, we’re loving the chunky knit dresses and longer-length jerseys that provide extra cover. Place emphasis on a knitted dress by simply pairing it with knee-high stockings and a pair of loafers or pair a longer-length jersey with comfy jeans, a fitted top and sneakers for a causal look.
