3 V-neck styles you should try now

Updated: Feb 13, 2020

V-necklines are a style that keeps strong with plenty alternatives, from loungewear to runway, they tend to create a visually flattering effect on women.


In addition to looking alluring, this style flatters woman with:

Large bust: A lower neckline breaks up the expanse of the bust very effectively.

Broad shoulder line: A V-neck narrows the width of the shoulder line by accentuating vertical integrity.

Petite height: A shorter person tends to look more proportioned in a V-neck because of its elongating and vertical qualities.


Here you have 3 V-neck styles to watch!


Square Boxy


The contemporary look predominates with the boxy V-neck, this style brings a casual feel without losing the youthful featuring a wide body and slim sleeves in both long and short lengths.


At texture level, we can see the use of lofty yarns, wool, merino and synthetic blends with the volume through the sleeve and a pulled-in rib hem add newness to this style.


Colour tends towards neutrals such as grey, dusty pink and olive green, however, this year you can find a lot more in classic blue, coral pink and flame scarlet.


Longer-style V-neck


According to WGSN, the longer-style V-neck has been seen in finer gauges, both casual and more refined iterations have a pared-back silhouette. A functional utility feel is created with loungewear influences that work well in slouchy fits, where the longer style V-neck is making a statement.


Texture is very important and this year you will find a lot more of this style in super-fine merino, cashmere or wool blends. The lightness of yarn and semi-sheer gauzy knits add a new level of refinement V-neck tops.


V-neck with exaggerated Volume


Going into the exaggerated puffy sleeves trend, the V-neck shapes grows into ever more exaggerated style with deep statement necklines, wide trims, rich texture and sleeves varying from short, wide and straight through to fuller bell sleeves.


This oversized silhouette has continued to be important, with exaggerated heavy-gauge ribs and either an elongated or rounded cocooning shape. Panelling and fringing elevate this item from cosy basic to dramatic statement piece in wool, mohair and alpaca blends.
