What's the right thing to wear under a down jacket?
Lightweight knit top
If you want to avoid looking bulky in a down jacket, a thin knit top is recommended. Pairing it with a fitted knit will reduce the bulkiness around your shoulders and stomach. Since down jackets are excellent at retaining heat, a thin knit as an inner layer will keep you warm enough. Choosing a bright color will create a light and airy look, while dark colors are perfect for adding definition to your outfit.
ハイネックインナー
A high-neck inner layer is a perfect match for down outerwear. It keeps your neck warm, which outerwear alone can't completely protect, while also adding definition to your outfit. The high neck draws the eye upwards, creating a lengthening effect and making you look taller. Choosing a bright color like white or ivory is recommended to brighten up your face.
