If there is anything in Pune that is as unpredictable as our famous speed breakers, it is the Weather…

Yet, come winter and the city witnesses some great winter fashion being showcased at the popular evening haunts. We decided to walk along the city’s high streets and check on the latest winter trends and look what we found –

From Over The Top Cardigans to Thigh-high Boots and Suede, our city has it all!

Oversized: Come winter and the first piece of clothing we hunt for are sweat shirts and our comfy hoodies. Ditch them now, for an oversized hoodie. For the chic look, pair them with thigh-high boots or stockings, and you will be the centre of attraction!

Velvets and Suedes: Denims and wool blends are the most comfy fabric for winters. Yet, this time, try some velvet dresses, pants, hoodies, shoes, boots and scarfs to rake in the praise.

Coats and Pullovers: Although these are done to dust, they never go out of style. Colour block pullovers, satins poly crepes, woven overcoats and fluffy sweaters are here this winter. Fur coats are also back in trend.

Cover ups, Ponchos and Blanket Capes: Style your regular denims and tank-tops by throwing on coverups and capes to perfect your winter look. These are super comfy, easy to wear and really cozy. DIY to personalise them and flaunt your style.

Chunky Caps, Gloves and Scarves: Caps and scarves always amp up the winter outfit while keeping you warm. But why go the traditional way? Try some chunky, crochet, laced, embellished, handmade ones that are the talk of the town this season.

Pastel Colours and Crops: Following the fall trend, pastel colours have made it to the winter collection as well. They are super cute, trendy and make you look chic. Crops and woolen kaftans for women in pastel are also in vogue.

Despair not Pune men, for we have some options for you too-

Overcoats: The faux fur, simple, yet elegantly designed, with the soft down fill ensures complete warmth. Stylist trench coats, double chested overcoats, tailored fit and slim jacket overcoats, are some option one can choose from.

Jean, Biker Jackets, Leather and Bomber jackets: A lazy guy’s first choice, jackets are beyond perfect to tame this time of the year. With new styles like the bomber and military jackets, tweed or the biker jackets are all pretty much in style this year too. Why not wear this over an undershirt to guarantee extra warmth during the cold weather. If you don’t already have one then you need to buy a quality undershirt first before you can complete your stylish winter look.

Winter Whites: If pastels are the choice for women, then it’s white for the men. Cream, white and stone paired with nudes makes a classic combo making you look uber stylish and suave.

Knitwear: The unwritten rule of staying ‘cool’ with basics will always rule. Before you decide on your comfortable outfit, consider the fabric and the prints. Patterns on wool or knitted cotton feels gentler.
