Sweaters for women – from men’s closet to the canon of female fashion

When Coco Chanel decided to revolutionize her wardrobe, borrowing more and more elements from male outfits, she probably did not realize that it would give rise to new times, which would change women's fashion. One of the elements that rebellious Frenchwoman introduced to a woman's wardrobe, was masculine sweater. Over time, this garment became the base of every woman’s closet, and over the next decades, it has strengthened its position as the most useful part of the women's attire.

Initially, women's sweaters designed by Chanel took on the form of popular cardigans. Women in the 1920s and 1930s wore them with skirts or dresses and quickly grew to love them for their convenience and the ability to move freely. Remembering the times of tight corsets and dresses sewn with heavy materials, women warmly welcomed the new fashion to adapt individual elements of the male wardrobe. Sweaters have become even more popular during the Second World War, when almost overnight clothes by fashion designers disappeared, and the studios were shut down. Women left alone, without distractions of the interwar era began to take care of their wardrobes themselves. They sewed or knitted sweaters from the hard-earned materials and yarn and over the years of practice, the sweaters resembled those made by French fashion designers.
