In the 1930s, Coco Chanel introduced a women's sweater in one of her shows, demonstrating that this garment can possess beauty and sophistication. However, among fashion enthusiasts, there was initially a reluctance to embrace sweaters, perceiving them as more masculine and rugged apparel. This perception shifted when the renowned actress Marilyn Monroe, who served as a role model for countless women, showcased herself in a blue, bulky sweater while holding a guitar during a photoshoot.
It was at that moment when the notion of the "sweater girl" emerged. Sweaters rightfully claimed their place in women's wardrobes, and women of all backgrounds began to wear them, including those with the most refined taste. In 1983, Princess Diana sported her cherished sweater at a polo competition. The sweater was red and featured white and one black sheep. The international media referred to this distinctive design as the "black sheep," which quickly became a coveted fashion item among trendsetters in the 80s. However, it is worth noting that the most popular sweater patterns are those portraying reindeer, which both men and women have favored for numerous years. Even the esteemed fashion house Dolce & Gabbana could not overlook this trend and showcased sweaters with reindeer patterns in their fall-winter 2010-2011 collection.
