Layering, in simple terms, means to dress up using multiple garments that are worn on top of each other. Despite being tricky and daunting, layering does allow for a lot of creative freedom and room for experimentation. Moreover, it is quite practical, allowing the wearer to be prepared for a wide range of temperatures without having to change the entire outfit. Below, we put forth some basic rules which will help you navigate the world of layering your winter clothes, especially if you are new to this, to put on an Instagram-worthy fit.

Some basic rules
Check the weather before deciding what kind of clothing you want to layer so that you can be ready to beat varying temperatures and select the appropriate fabrics accordingly.
Stick to 2-3 layers of clothing. Anything more than three and you risk looking puffy and stuffed. You can layer with multiple types of garments like jackets, coats, vests, blazers, sweaters, and even summer dresses. Ideally, you should be able to modify your layered fit in public without embarrassment. So, while layering, make sure your outfit works both as a whole and minus a layer or two.
