What is a pullover?
You hear the word “pulover” a lot on fashion blogs, on influencers' networks, as well as in the media in general. However, few people know exactly what this piece is.
That it is a blouse to protect yourself from the cold is already known by most. But what are its characteristics?
Well, according to experts, the pullover is a closed blouse, which does not have front openings with buttons or zippers, for example.
It is usually produced with a heavier fabric to become a very robust and protective piece. The most common is made of wool. and, naturally, from techniques such as knitting and crochet. On a smaller scale we find it in other weavings.
Regarding the collar, the most common is the rolê (or rulê), but there are also models that have a crew neck collar, and a few with a V collar.
Because they are heavier and more robust, pullovers tend to be worn on top of other garments, seeking to intensify protection against winds on cold days. Here in Brazil, this piece is often used between May and August, when temperatures are lower 😉
Oh! An important characteristic: as it does not have an opening in the front, the pullover must be put on over the head.
Pullover or Sweater – What's the Difference?
A very common question when it comes to a blouse to wear on cold days is about the differences that exist between the pullover and the sweater.
First, it is worth mentioning that, according to connoisseurs, the pullover is a derivative of the sweater, which is another type of warm blouse.
Both tops are warm and, in that sense, great to wear when the temperatures drop. Both are also closed. If you look at the two, you might not even imagine that there are differences, that they exist. But in fact, they are very mild and difficult to perceive.
Understand the main differences
While the pullover is a blouse made with a heavy, robust weave that warms up without much effort, the sweater is lighter.
The sweater can also be produced in wool or knit, as well as with other fluffy knits, pleasant to the touch and that keep the body temperature warm.
The collar of the pullover is normally turtleneck or crew neck, but the predominant collar of the sweater is V-shaped, also appearing round.
Because they are lighter, they favor the creation of looks with overlaps. For example: over dress shirts or under blazers and coats. Examples below:

How to wear women's pullover? – Models and outfits
Cold days call for very warm clothes, which insulate our body from intense winds. The pullover is one of the most appropriate pieces for this type of look.
Because it is a very robust blouse, with thick fabric, it tends to generate fear when putting together feminine looks. There are those who think that it will leave the look overloaded and without delicacy. However, this is not the case.
It all depends on the pieces you choose to compose your look with the pullover.
When the temperatures are very low, the best thing to do is wear this blouse with other clothes that cover your entire body, such as: pants, tights (80 thread), over-the-knee boots.
But if it's not such a cold day, milder, you can even mix it with shorts, skirts and dresses. There are also those who use the female pullover, when it is longer, like a dress.
Example of printed pullover maxi worn as a dress:
Trousers
The best style of pants to wear with a pullover is the 'dry' one, which has a straight or skinny hem. These two models guarantee a more harmonic look, since the blouse is very voluminous.
To combine, boots and combat boots are more coherent, but it is possible to bet on sneakers if the intention is to invest in urban fashion.
Example of a look with a pullover + skinny pants:
with skirt
And with a short skirt, how is this combination? If you think it's totally disconnected, you're wrong. After all, it's a super requested combination these days.
Short skirts, naturally, will show off your legs. Therefore, a good tip to stay fashionable is to wear it with riding boots or over the knee boots, which go up to the knees. They cover most of your legs and you don't get cold 🙂 It can be cool with tights too!
Look tip with skirt and pullover:
Work
Even though it's a hyper flashy and bulky blouse, you can create elegant looks that can convey seriousness.
