A Guide to Polka Dots 

The patterns of polka dots have a quite long history. Even on murals or utensils thousands of years ago, we can find polka dots. Someone believes that the patterns of polka dots are an impression and imitation of the starry sky by ancient people, indicating human’s worship to the nature. But the history of applying the patterns of polka dots to clothes is not too long. It is believed that it was not until the 18th century that the patterns of polka dots were began to be used on clothes.

Although polka dots are quite commonly seen, most of people have not thought carefully about why the dots have been named as “polka”, a type of dance. Actually, the polka dots have nothing to do with the polka dancing. The reason why this kind of pattern is named after the dance is that the polka dancing was extremely popular at that time. To gain more benefits, the smart merchants associated the patterns with the name of the dance.

Before the 17th century, the polka dot cloth was mainly manufactured in Switzerland. But later, this kind of patterns caught the eyes of French nobles. They found that the patterns of polka dots are a good choice for the decoration of their clothes. From then on, more and more people began to be attracted by this kind of energetic and vivid pattern. The polka dots were used not only on the ordinary dresses of ladies, but also on the wedding dresses.

In the 1940s, due to the likes from Hollywood female stars, polka dots have gained love from more young ladies. These patterns symbolized the freedom of expression.

Now the patterns of polka dots have also been applied to the interior decoration, and it has also been a significant element in the artistic forms such as painting. At the beginning, the polka dot clothes could not be produced in large volumes. But with the improvement of printing technology, now polka dot clothing can not only be mass-produced, but the pattern can also be innovative.

Polka Dot Sweaters of Different Styles

The combination of polka dots and sweaters is quite a broad concept. When it comes to “a polka dot sweater”, the images that appear in everyone’s mind would be different. Why? Different people may imagine polka dots of different styles. Now in this section, we are going to clarify the different styles of polka dot sweaters to let you know which one is better for you.

Different shapes of necklines. Generally speaking, we can find polka dot sweaters with v-necks, round necks, or turtle necks. Turtle neck sweaters usually perform better in warmth keeping, but if your neck is relatively short, then it is better not to choose a turtle neck one. The v-neck and round neck and modify your figure proportion to a large extent. For example, if you are with the pear shape figure, then you are suitable for the v-neck sweaters because the shape of the v-neck is a inverted triangle therefore it can make your figure proportion more balanced.

Different lengths. Except the shapes of necklines, lengths of the polka dot sweaters should also be taken into consideration. Now most of the sweaters we can find are crop ones that reach your waist. But longer sweaters that could be worn as dresses have also caught more attention these years. The length that you need to choose depends on your figure as well as the outerwear that you are going to pair with it. If you are a petite lady and would like to wear a crop jacket, then a crop polka dot sweater is more suitable for you. But if your outerwear is long such as a long trench coat, then it is acceptable to choose a long polka dot sweater dress.

Different colors. Initially, the size and color of polka dots were relatively regular. In most cases, all the polka dots on the same clothe would be in the same size and color. But now, it is uncertain. You can always find sweaters with polka dots of different colors and sizes. They are distributed randomly but look more vivid and energetic. If you prefer the classic style, then it is unnecessary to challenge the irregular style. You can just choose a color which is the most suitable for your skin color and is in line with your preferences. If you would like to break away from your fixed outfit mode, then you can challenge the irregular style.

Polka Dot Sweaters of Different Fabrics

Generally speaking, the fabrics of clothes and their wearing comfort are often the most closely related. So the issue about the fabrics is worth discussing in this section.

Wool. Wool is one of the best fabrics for warmth retention used in sweater manufacturing. And most wool sweaters are soft to wear. But wool is usually more expensive and difficult to care for. Once you wash a non-washable wool sweater, it will lose its shape and become ruined. Therefore, this fabric is more suitable for people who are more leisurely and have a certain financial ability.

Blended wool. Nowadays, with the popularity of blended fabrics, blended wool has also been applied to the manufacture of many types of clothes including the polka dot sweaters. Wool could be blended with cotton and certain artificial fibers to improve the performances of wool. In this way, the sweaters made of blended wool can not only keep warm, but also be easy to care for.

Cotton. Of course, some sweaters are made of cotton thread. In terms of the warm keeping performance, cotton can not be compared with wool. Likewise, cotton does not have very good elasticity either. But it is more durable. So in autumn and early winter when the weather is not too cold, you can choose a polka dot sweater made of cotton.

Mohair. Maybe you are not that familiar with this fabric. Actually, mohair is the fur of Angora goat, and it is regarded as one of the best textile raw materials.Mohair is very resilient and easy to care for, so it is suitable for making sweaters. But as it has good performances in nearly all aspects, the mohair sweaters are usually more expensive.

Alpaca. Alpaca is also a very good fabric for making sweaters since it is softer than mohair and has even better performance in warmth keeping than wool. And the colors of alpaca are diverse. You will have many choices about the colors of the polka dot sweater if you would like to choose one made of alpaca.

What to Wear with A Polka Dot Sweater

Since polka dots are already quite eye-catching, it is better to pair polka dot sweaters with a solid color outerwear and bottoms. Otherwise, your whole outfit will be too dazzling. Below are some of our suggestions for your polka dot sweater outfits for your reference.

A crop polka dot sweater + a solid color skirt + a white clutch
If you are afraid that the polka dot sweater will cover all other highlights of your outfit, you can also choose a well-designed skirt. For example, you can choose a side slit skirt to pair with the polka dot sweater. Together with a white clutch, your outfit is able to avoid most of the mistakes.

A polka dot sweater dress + a solid color trench coat
The highlight of this outfit lies in the sense of layering. This is also a quite versatile outfit for nearly all occasions. On any occasion, you will be the focus of the crowd for your elegance. You can wear a sweater chain as an accessory.

A long polka dot sweater dress + a crop leather jacket
Even if your polka sweater dress is long, it is unnecessary for you to choose a long outerwear. On the contrary, the combination of a long sweater dress and a crop jacket creates a sense of contrasting. In addition to elegance, you are also cool in this outfit.

A polka dot sweater + a shirt + a pair of jeans
This outfit treats the polka dot sweater as an outerwear. It is suitable for both daily wear and commuting. But remember that do not attend more formal occasions in this outfit. The jeans are more compatible with casual occasions.

A polka dot sweater + a down vest + a pair of leggings + a maxi skirt
This outfit is more suitable for cold winter days. A down vest will protect you from the coldness, and it will not cover the polka dot patterns on the sleeves. With the help of a pair of leggings, you can also wear a maxi skirt in winter. But if you feel that the combination of a pair of leggings and a maxi skirt is still not enough to keep you warm, you can also replace the skirt with a pair of thick pants.
