So you think that being homebound during the pandemic lets you off the hook when it comes to looking polished and presentable? Sorry, but nope – at least according to Vogue magazine, which issued “pandemic-era rules to dress by this fall.”
Assuming you’re not even considering donning icky ripped T-shirts or stained jeans, one sensible Vogue suggestion is to load up on knits, among the comfiest materials out there and one that can really up your fashion quotient.
That can be a good move for Zoomers and hostesses. After all, the holidays are coming up and you’ll want to be well dressed – but still comfortable — for socially distant festivities.
Here are some ideas for nifty knits this season:
Sport Parisian style in this sleeveless viscose blend pullover with asymmetrical bare shoulders. Also comes in black.

Ganni’s sleek knit dress will take you everywhere from Zoom cocktails to nightcaps.

Ischiko’s Jacket Gingka 007 makes a fashion statement with sleek stripes and details like a moderate drape and wide, casual cut. Made from a viscose blend with “a touch of cashmere.” Oska suggests pairing it with wide and conical trousers, dresses and skirts.
