Silk Turtleneck - The perfect basic
Silk is the most versatile, breathable, and comfortable fiber in the world and is a natural insulator. It has the unique ability to draw moisture away from the skin, making it ideal for layering. It is lightweight and the thinnest natural fiber available.
Filament silk maximizes the ability of silk to insulate the body and wick away moisture. It is lightweight yet very strong, and its supple texture makes it perfect for undergarments. The natural stretch makes it very comfortable to wear beneath casual and business attire, as well as underneath your activewear. It is gentle and soft against the skin, and perhaps most importantly, it does not add bulk under your clothes.
Not only does the texture have advantages, but the sophisticated look also makes them popular. The sheen and texture of a silk turtleneck are very different compared to those of nylon or cotton turtlenecks. Polyester or polyamide can look good too, but silk is unique. Silky turtlenecks, sometimes referred to as rollnecks or polo-necks, are available in a variety of colors and styles.
Layer silk turtlenecks with sweaters, cardigans, blouses, shirts, T-shirts, and anything else you can think of. Wear them under a blazer for a stunning business look. It's a great alternative to the classic shirt or blouse. V-neck sweaters with a silk turtleneck underneath can look absolutely gorgeous. The V-shape of the neck will slightly push against the silk of the turtleneck, resulting in a pleasant movement of the fabric. Wear it under a button-front shirt or blouse and leave several or all the buttons undone.
The turtlenecks can be worn unfolded for a crinkled neck look. Crinkled necks are very trendy these days, creating a sort of contrast. The unfolded collar looks casual, while the crushed silk looks elegant and very attractive. Funnel neck tops will give a similar effect.
Silk turtlenecks are also perfect to wear under a wool turtleneck sweater, to keep the sometimes itchy wool away from your neck. It can be handy to wear the silk turtleneck with the collar unfolded to form a higher barrier against the wool.
As you can see, there are numerous reasons to purchase one or more silk turtlenecks. They are not always easy to find in stores, but on the internet you will find them without too much trouble.
If silk turtlenecks are too expensive for your budget, it is, of course, perfectly acceptable to wear the polyester, polyamide, or viscose version of these nice, shiny tops. It is a pleasure to wear them! They are smooth, shimmery, and feel good on the skin, just like the silk version.
