Outfit and fashion ideas
Boat neck sweaters have been on the fashion scene for ages. Choosing this type of sweater will make you look classy and elegant. At the same time, you also feel casual. The sweater’s boat neckline highlights the collarbone and neckline, so you’ll always look fabulous with the right outfit choice.
Sailors are responsible for popularizing these sweaters. The word bateau comes from the French language and means boat. Sailors wore them because they were easy to take off in an emergency.
In the hippie era, they came into women’s fashion in the form of an oversized version. This is also one of the most popular cuts among many others that can be worn in numerous combinations.
Here are the ways you can style the boat neck sweater, from the looks that only expose your collarbones to those that fully expose your shoulder. Let us begin!
High waist jeans
High-waisted jeans paired with a boat neck sweater will give you the perfect everyday outfit. You can also wear it to the office or for a chilled night out with your friends.
It’s up to you to choose the color that suits you. It can look good with grey, black but also with the others like burgundy, orange or pink. Also choose wisely between the materials. I will suggest cashmere or wool. Wearing sweaters made from it will make you feel most comfortable.
If the sweater is oversized, you can safely tuck it into your jeans. Add to all this a good statement belt and you will look chic and chic.

White shirt below
If you put on the sweater and white shirt below, you can combine it with many clothes. This type of combination is eternal. The boat neck sweater and white shirt below can be worn by anyone. It can be perfect for work, business meetings or if you prefer with an everyday outfit.
You can combine it with jeans or with dark blue trousers, as in the photo below. Black pumps complement this look perfectly, but you won’t go wrong by opting for flat boots instead. Thigh high boots are also an option if you ask me.
Stripes perfectly match the white shirt, and this combination can look elegant, classy and casual at the same time. You should definitely try it.

miniskirt
As I said before, oversized sweaters are one of the most popular forms of boat neck sweaters. This time I will show you how fashionable girls wear it in combination with the mini skirt.
In the first photo you can see the combination of a gray one-shoulder sweater and a white asymmetric mini skirt. This is an ideal outfit for going out! The most important thing for me is that I feel comfortable with the outfit. And this one really meets my standards. It’s an excellent mix of coziness and chic.
The outfit in the second photo can be worn during the day. Put on comfortable ankle boots, add a nice bag and there you go!

turn-down collar
This type of sweater is very interesting. It can be worn in two different ways. You can either wear it like it has a big collar or you can tuck the collar below the shoulder line, twist it and make it look like it has a boat neck. In any case, the possible combinations are very worthwhile. You can wear it with skinny jeans, boyfriend jeans, skirts or shorts and also with trousers.
For a casual everyday look, combine skinny jeans, the boat neck sweater and don a long necklace to complete this classic look.
For a dressier look, wear baggy pants and heels. To spice things up, you can add a black coat or a nice looking cropped leather jacket.
