Will takes the cardigan to glamorous heights by pairing it with sunglasses elegantly over the shoulders. This styling choice highlights the rugged sophistication of the shawl collar. In another look, he layers it fully over a black blazer, balancing warmth with refined masculinity. The contrast between the black cardigan and a beige inner layer adds visual interest.
Shuhei Nishiguchi demonstrates the shawl collar cardigan’s ability to enhance formalwear. In one look, he coordinates the cardigan with a grey suit and black shirt for an effortlessly cohesive ensemble. In another, he switches to a patterned grey suit for a more dynamic take on the classic pairing. Nishiguchi's styling is a masterclass in tonal styling. Black, a very dark grey and white, a very light grey is always a reliable palette to experiment within for a coordinated look.
Look 1: A grey suit paired with the cardigan showcases timeless coordination and sophistication.
Tomoyoshi Takada takes a laid-back approach by pairing the charcoal cardigan with grey jeans and a matching blazer. The result? A contemporary, relaxed spin on traditional tailoring. We have included the charcoal within the black styling guide as the similarity in colour palette allows both shades to be effective in this styling. For another look, he brightens the palette with white trousers and a red jumper, crafting a cozy yet polished winter ensemble.
Look 1: Grey-on-grey tones create a harmonious, understated outfit perfect for casual sophistication.
Look 2: White trousers and a red jumper add a holiday-ready flair, grounded by the cardigan’s dark hue.
Nishiguchi experiments further, using the cardigan’s dark base to make an argyle jumper pop. Paired with pleated trousers, the result is an elegant drape that merges comfort with timeless style.
Look 1: Argyle jumpers paired with pleated trousers create a refined and eye-catching silhouette.
