"The turtleneck is a highly contested article of clothing. It often does not evoke fond memories. It's the thing your parents forced you to wear on holidays, causing you to spend the entirety of holiday dinners scratching at your neck. I have learned through many passionate turtleneck debates that it's tough to convince people who don't like their neck touched to sport one. Yet here I am, trying."
"The turtleneck invokes a sophisticated, smart style and transforms almost any cold-weather outfit without much work on your part. Its elongated silhouette is flattering to all body types, it accentuates another attractive component of your face (the jawline) and just about every cool guy in history has been spotted wearing (and looking utterly divine) in one. All you really have to do now is get over your aversion to fabric hugging your neck."
"Turtlenecks are not created equally. You can choose from a variety of fabrics and styles for various occasions. You have your thinner, slimmer turtlenecks - ideal for layering and those atypical, slightly warmer winter days - and then your thicker cable-knit turtlenecks for sub-zero temperatures.

The turtleneck often triggers negative memories of being forced to wear uncomfortable neck-hugging garments during holidays, causing constant scratching and aversion. The garment can also read as sexy and sophisticated, drawing attention to the neck, collarbone, chest, and jawline while creating an elongated silhouette that flatters many body types. The turtleneck works across casual and formal contexts, pairing with jeans, blazers, and tailored coats to transform cold-weather outfits with minimal effort. Turtlenecks come in thin, slim-fitting versions ideal for layering and transitional days, and thick cable-knit varieties built for sub-zero temperatures. Overcoming discomfort with fabric at the neck unlocks significant styling potential.
