They can make you look good but can also make you look really bad all depending on how decide to care for them.
PILLING
You know when your favorite sweater starts to develop small, firm balls of lint? These small firm balls of lint and fluff are known as “Pills.” Pilling occurs when fibers or yarns on your garment tangle, break or mat together in a tiny knot or ball. This makes the overall texture of the garment very rough and unattractive looking. Here at Avon, we are able to get your garments professionally cleaned, blocked and de-pilled, ensuring they look fresh and newer than ever.

OPTICAL ILLUSION
It can definitely be super deceiving when you see ads of models wearing the perfect looking sweaters on T.V. in bright lighting. Or when you walk into a store and see images of sweaters arranged so perfectly and neatly. But then, when you put it on it looks big and baggy and not so perfect. Something as simple as rolling or tucking one side of the garment in can create something known as, asymmetrical hems. This will create a dark and a light aspect which will overall create visual interest to ones eye. Now, something that was once a plain big sweater is giving off a new, fresh look. There are so many different unique ways you can style your sweaters to fit your body perfectly and make you look amazing!

DROP SHOULDER LOOK
The off-the-shoulder look has become so much more popular within the past couple of years due to the fact that when you put the sweater on, it makes you look a little bit smaller in a way since the garment itself is practically hanging off of you. It is a new type of style that is definitely trending during this generation and time period.
There are so many different combinations to wear! Each have great texture, color and neckline that will look amazing on you and fit your body perfectly.

TEXTURE
Not only is it important to take an inventory on what sweater colors look good on you, but what textures as well! The easiest and most effective way to bring your natural beauty center stage is to apply contrast to your look. For example, contrasting your hair texture with your sweaters will make you stand out. If you are someone who has dark brown hair or black hair, then wearing a light color will contrast with your hair color. On the other hand, light brown hair or blonde hair contrasts very well with a high pigment color. Sleek hair also looks amazing with a chunky knit sweater. Matching your hair colors and styles to the type of garment you purchase and wear can make a big difference in your overall look!
