Stuffy and ladylike? Not necessarily! Ideal making a splash of texture, the latest and greatest bouclé pieces are anything but mature. With slouchy jacket cuts, high-waisted shorts, and off-kilter threading, the tweed knit takes a youthful new turn, just in time for your transition into fall.
1. Étoile Isabel Marant Momo Jacket: Credit Chanel with the original, currently Isabel is making the knit blazer a must. Take this cool cut from the office into the evening, no fuss required.
At Barneys New York for $395.
2. Topshop Co-Ord Bouclé Shorts: These perky hot pants bring just a bum’s worth of bouclé, which will look sharp over black tights. Or bare legs, for the really daring.
At Topshop for $76.
3. Kenzo Bouclé Top: The crewneck tee gets an uncommon makeover in a nubby wool-blend. And surprise, the back flips the color from green to gray!
At Barneys New York for $365.
4. Lanvin Bouclé-Knit Hat: No need to fully commit, just top yourself off with a metallic-threaded knit hat. Coziness is countered in typical Lanvin style: with a grosgrain bow.
On My Theresa for $495.
5. Oscar de la Renta Bouclé-Tweed Dress: Does anybody do bouclé as well as Oscar? I think not. This easy fit and frayed collar shows the uptown girl is headed downtown.
On Net-a-Porter for $1,890.
