There's a myth that says you have to sacrifice style for warmth in winter. That's wrong. Layering isn't about haphazardly piling clothes on top of each other; it's a strategic art form. When it's freezing outside, it's about creating the right dialogue between fabrics and silhouettes.

We're breaking down the layering code into four simple but essential steps. The goal? A wardrobe that will get you through the cold season thoughtfully, efficiently, and with maximum style.

Step 1: The Thermal Base – Your invisible “Secret Weapon”

The base layer determines everything: comfort, warmth, and the feeling that a look works all day long.
Don't let your base layer be boring. Opaque tights in deep burgundy or navy worn under trousers act like a hidden drop of color, providing warmth – both physically and visually. A small, secret layer of style that no one sees, but accompanies every movement.
Natural materials like merino wool and silk are unbeatable here. They regulate temperature, cling to the body, and feel so luxurious that you'll never want to be without them again.

Step 2: The core layer – Where silhouettes speak

The second layer forms the visual centerpiece of the look. Here you decide which direction the overall impression takes.
The "dress-over-pants" look isn't just back—it's more fashionable than ever. A long ribbed knit dress worn over slim trousers creates the effect of a soft, elegant tunic. Add a finely knitted sweater, loosely tucked in at the front: this half-tuck adds visual interest and breaks up the length precisely where the look needs structure.
A dynamic interplay of smooth, ribbed and firm textures creates depth, warmth and a deliberately unconventional elegance.
