Why Fleece Is This Season’s New Closet Essential
Uniqlo & Sharp
We get it — once winter temperatures drop below zero, it’s hard to bring yourself just to leave the house, let alone to do so looking stylish. Thankfully, UNIQLO has an easy solution to building a winter wardrobe that balances practicality and polish: fleece. No, really. After all, the best way to combat uncomfortable temperatures is by opting for clothes that specialize in comfort, and now that UNIQLO has liberated fleece from its frumpy past with new tailored cuts, we’re finally free to embrace the fabric wholeheartedly. Our advice: go forth in search of your own golden fleece, then make it this season’s MVP.
