Jacquard and brocade fabrics are notoriously tricky to wear. The heavy weights, textures, and bold prints have a lot in common with furnishing fabrics, and if you're not careful, you could end up looking like you whipped up your latest dress from a pair of old curtains, à la Maria von Trapp. That said, you shouldn't avoid jacquard altogether, especially as we head into Winter. Worn in the right way, these luxurious, thick fabrics can add a touch of luxury and warmth to any look. Street style stars know the key is to mix things up, adding a clashing print, a bold accessory, or a short hemline to remove any possible frump factor. Keep reading for our pick of the current crop of jacquard pieces, then start thinking about how you're going to add your own personality to each piece.
