What to Wear: Knit Cardigan for a Girls' Night Out

A girls' night out calls for a look that's a little more done-up than daywear — this is the one to have fun with. Here's how to make a knit cardigan work for it — plus a way to actually see it on yourself before you commit.

Getting the silhouette right

For this occasion, look for a length that hits at the hip layers more easily than a long duster cardigan. A lightweight merino layers indoors without overheating.

  • A fitted layer underneath keeps the silhouette from reading boxy
  • Sleeves pushed up slightly look more intentional than left long and loose

Color and finishing touches

  • A cardigan in a warm neutral works as a base layer for almost anything else in the closet
  • Let one button close at the waist rather than leaving it fully open and shapeless

What the occasion actually needs

A girls' night out is a little more done-up than daywear — this is the one to have fun with.

  • Pick one going-out shoe you can actually dance in
  • A going-out top with structure holds up better through a long night than something you have to keep adjusting
