Hello all!

I've been tasked with running this Friday Challenge, which is: Layering!

The rules are pretty basic - just wear more than one layer. What counts as a layer? A sweater, vest, shirt, scarf, coat/jacket, tie even, anything visible really that adds another aspect of depth to your outfit - maybe not underwear, which if you're using as a visible layer you're probably in a completely different challenge of your own. Pictures may be portraits, full body shots, detail shots, whatever highlights your layering is fair game. You can enter as many as you want, but I'd advise picking one to submit as your formal pick so you don't dilute your votes.

More layers don't necessarily = better, but I'd wager a shirt and a jacket alone aren't going to get as many votes in a layering challenge as something with a little more to it. Playing with textures, color, silhouettes are all great ways to add in layers. The contest will run two weeks through Dec. 3rd. I'm looking forward to seeing what both CM and the streetwear sides can bring to the challenge. Good luck all!

Inspiration from some of our own SF members below:

Right, last time I wore everything yellow, maybe this time I'll just wear... everything!

I thought I would add some additional inspiration shamelessly ripped from NMWA's Instagram account:

You can visit their Instagram account for even more great pictures.

Also, here is @mossrockss in a balmacaan over a belted shawl cardigan:

a bit surprising to not see any more-aesthetic layers over the standard masks
