No surprises to which brand EXO Kai is swerving in to ace the granddad cardigan trend — Gucci, of course.
What can your octonegerian grandfather, favourite Spotify rapper and generally, anybody in the know agree on? It’s that the granddad cardigan is dope as hell. The piece of coloured fabric that you can throw on whatever you’re wearing — ratty band tees or even a suit — might be already what you’re familiar with which means that the season’s snuggiest won’t be intimidating.
Sure, the granddad cardigan trend can come in the most aggressive patterns or far-out colours but let’s look at the one EXO Kai is wearing above: its shape is still a cardigan (no Gvasalia-weirdness here!), its colour palette is palatable even for the most colour shy and most importantly, it’s every bit as useful and versatile as its grey heather version.
Here, even more options we’re into.
—
The Bottega Veneta version of the granddad cardigan trend has a conveniently placed breast pocket and…neon stripes.
—
Pleasantly simple on the front, even more interesting on the back — the Dior Men version comes with a hood and the House’s name emblazoned on it.
—
The Dolce&Gabbana take on the granddad cardigan trend is sourced from Sicily itself: a nubbly knit and contrast stitching.
—
Small little logos to turn the classic black cardigan into something flyer: this is the Fendi way of doing it.
—
A different version of the granddad cardigan trend that Exo’s Kai is sporting but still swervy nonetheless — this Gucci one is not for the wallflowers.
—
Leopard printed, neon coloured and slim — it has to be from Saint Laurent of course.
—
Cashmere and wool + a simpler shade of creme white — we’re calling this Ermenegildo Zegna XXX version the boyfriend cardigan instead.
