It was tall black at Givenchy and tight salmon pink at Welsh Bonner. there was a version.
On the opening night of Paris Fashion Week, Saint Laurent showed off funnel-neck jumpers, some of which transformed into gowns.
The polo neck has a long tradition of European style. French brand Givenchy’s creative director Matthew Williams agreed behind the scenes, of which he launched the show with five. “We do this sort of thing every season.” Williams is best known for his punk take on tailoring, but this season he’s swapped polo necks for sharp black suits and broad-shouldered camels.

In the 1960s, the polo neck entered the wardrobes of intellectuals such as Samuel Beckett and Michel Foucault, and Italian movie stars such as Marcello Mastroianni. Overnight, they became the unofficial uniforms of both Left Bank thinkers and the Riviera red carpet.

Outside the Givenchy show, one driver, Cardo, said he was so warm that he was fine with wearing “just a T-shirt underneath.”
