Future Trends for Knit wear

We have seen the steady increase in baggy, bright, 1990's, chunky, knitwear and it looks like according to WGSN ( trend forecasters) that it will continue through to 2020.


What ever genre you are into knitwear predictions foresee us wearing them BIG BIG BIG.

This reminds me of the 90's and wearing them alongside big floaty skirts, which i'm not sure if I can revisit.



The trends include country lofty ribs, heritage knits, fair Isle and folk and also story telling knits.


It seems that WGSN forecast us being more aware of our emotions and they say throughout there literature that technology will be come more human and humans will become more digital maybe thats why we will be wearing large knits so we can hide inside them and not show our true selves in this ever increasing pressurised world.
