If you love to texturize your outfits, crochet fashion is worth looking into.
We have all heard and seen so much of patterns and prints, lace and ruffles in fashion these days. The crochet trend, however, is less spoken about. Perhaps it has not caught on, of if it has, it needs more hype. And here’s a piece to hype it up.
Moving along, we’ll take a look at how the presence of crochet in clothing can lift up the mood of your outfits.
Let’s begin with Mayo Wo’s crochet cardigan.
The addition of a crochet cardigan onto a very feminine chiffon get-up brings unexpected elegance. The lightweight crochet material is best for layering; even when it’s warm outside, so you need not to worry if it’s practical for our scorching hot Malaysian daytime weather.
Colored crochet top is particularly an exciting piece to add into your wardrobe if you have the tendency to layer up your outfits.

To bring in flavor into the monochromatic ensemble, Anastasia Siantar wears a pair of look-at-me leopard print shorts. The black ankle boots complete the look.
Not only are there many types of crocheted tops, blouses or dresses for you choose from these days, there are also crochet shorts. These can turn any outfit into a visually-captivating one.
I absolutely adore the intricate embroidery of Diya L.’s shorts. She pairs a soft lace blouse with them shorts for that casual/formal chic look.

Embracing the crochet trend does not mean you start wearing all things crochet from top to bottom. It certainly does not turn you into a grandma.
For those who are just trying out the trend, it’s practical to try out tops or blouses, dresses or trousers that carry crochet embellishments. Crochet vest is something that you can invest in for starters.
The lovely texture of the crochet vest worn over a tank top transforms an otherwise a completely laid-back minimalistic look.
Another choice is to go for a cotton top with a crocheted back.
And here’s Alana Ruas’ very laid-back crochet look. If you love little details that stand out apart from lace and ruffles, give crochet a try.
Incorporating crochet into your casual wear will bring up your style factor without much hassle. It is like an afterthought. To wear it or not, is just a question of mood. Right now I’m feeling like I am about to go crochet-crazy. Are you?
