Men's Acne Cardigan in Three Styles

Autumn is the time for warm sweaters, turtlenecks, and scarves that protect against wind and cold. It's also the perfect time for a men's cardigan to find its way into your wardrobe and become part of your everyday outfits. So, how can it be worn in several different ways with various wardrobe items? Here are three autumnal styles for work and everyday wear.

Acne Studios is a Swedish brand, which has been successfully conquering European and global markets for over two decades. It's philosophy includes a practical aspect of clothing, fresh design, and a new interpretation of classic clothing elements. An Acne cardigan epitomizes what this Stockholm brand offers. Simplicity, minimalism, and comfort play the main roles here, making this sweater an indispensable autumn accessory for many outfits. How does it fit into a work wardrobe, and how does it look in more casual combinations?

The Acne Cardigan in Business Styling

The first style is a gray men's cardigan in a classic, business version. As suitable for Acne, we've styled it in a modern way and broke it up with casual add-ons. The base of this outfit is a white shirt, which on one hand is associated with a business dress code, and on the other, it can perfectly match sporty elements in a man's wardrobe.

The upper part of the outfit is official and quite formal, so it will work even in a more demanding office space. The bottom of the outfit, however, leaves some room for fashion flare, as we've paired wool trousers with white sneakers in a universal style. It's a style that perfectly combines business dress code with comfortable casual wear.

Men's Cardigan and Accessories with Character

How else can you style a men's cardigan? The next universal proposal of a slightly looser character is the combination of a men's sweater with a white T-shirt and fashionable trousers with a wider cut and 3/4 length. It's worth adding a bit of a stronger accent in the form of heavy derby type shoes to this look. It's one of the most fashionable types of men's shoes, which gives the whole a proper expression.

The Acne cardigan goes great with basic, but also expressive wardrobe elements. On one hand, it's a pretty conventional outfit, on the other hand, it definitely attracts attention with details and a distinctive cut of trousers and shoes. On top of this set, it's worth putting on a long men's coat in a dark shade, for example, this one from the Polish brand MISBHV.

Gray Men's Cardigan with a Color Accent

The last proposal is a gray men's cardigan with colorful accents. This fall, strong, contrasting colors are in fashion. One of them is juicy orange, which goes great with gray. An orange vest also matches denim material, so jeans are a great addition to this outfit. To add a bit more color, choose multicolored Nike sports shoes, which will be a stylish dot on the "i" in the entire set. As a functional addition – a Gucci watch in a vintage style will work well.

An Acne cardigan is one of those wardrobe items that never go out of fashion and are so universal that you can easily create many outfits with them. A cardigan is also a very practical accessory and it depends on you whether you give it a more business or casual character. One thing is certain: regardless of what you combine it with, a men's cardigan will always look perfect.
