The history of the women's turtleneck sweater

The turtleneck appeared in the 19th century to protect the neck from the cold, particularly in the maritime world and among workers exposed to the elements. It was quickly adopted by women as a chic and practical piece.

Over the decades, the turtleneck sweater has become an iconic piece of feminine elegance, worn by fashion icons and reinterpreted by designers. Its ability to structure the silhouette while remaining comfortable has made it a timeless classic.

Today, the turtleneck comes in an endless variety of styles: thin neck, wide neck, oversized, cable-knit, cashmere, or merino wool, thus offering options suited to all tastes and occasions. You can even find variations such as the sleeveless turtleneck sweater for a more summery look.
