Selection: Fleece, an Invaluable Ally

It keeps you warm, is super snug, and besides being the #1 choice for comfortable wear, it can be paired with an array of garments and materials to create a chic yet casual look! 

Fleece is the perfect thing to wear when the temperatures start to drop. This insulated fabric is soft, flexible, and feels great against your skin. When it comes to sewing, it is an easy material to get the hang of and work with. It is sturdier than jersey and adapts to all shapes and sizes. Forgoing superfluous details and complex cuts, here the Burda Style editorial team has come up with a selection of beautiful pieces in sizes 36 to 52, making fleece the preferred material of the season.

Sweatshirt n°118 | Burda Style 11/21

This model is proof that fleece can be worn daily! The sweater is sewn here in two different materials, using a light pastel-pink fleece for the bodice and dainty white poplin for the pleated sleeves. What a contemporary look from a lovely duo!

Sweatshirt 125 | Burda Style 01/23

Here's another take on a blend of fabrics: this soft sweater can be sewn from fleece on top and given a feminine touch with sleek satin at the hem. The high collar is fashionable as ever with its large drawstrings at the neck.

Hoodie 120 | Burda Style 10/22

In the past, hoodies were relegated to the realm of sportswear, but today they are a favorite on catwalks and with fashion influencers alike. This piece is great for all styles and silhouettes thanks to its cool hood, drawstring at the neck, and elastic cuffs. Plus, the grey fleece material is as comfy as it can get, making the sweater a guaranteed go-to wardrobe item.

Hoodie 1 | Burda Easy no. 05/2021

This hoodie is not only incredibly charming, but it looks so sweet in pink velvet! The model, from our Burda Easy collection, is simple and quick to sew. The cuffs and hem are finished with contrasted ribbing in a pretty pink shade. And what's more? This piece also comes in both a cropped and longer version!

Sweatshirt no. 2 | Burda Easy 06/2021

This elegant turtleneck in comfortable fleece is another favorite from Burda Easy. To create a style that is totally your own, feel free to play around with different prints and colors. The cut of the model is ideal for winter and it will go wonderfully with your shorts, skirts, and pants. 

Anorak 128 | Burda Style 08/22

The model here has been created in cotton, though we can just picture it in two-tone fleece. The features like the zipped collar and fine pockets with decorative trimming elevate this anorak into a world of its own. The piece can be easily slipped on and is a perfect alternative for anyone seeking to shake things up from a standard jacket or blazer. This model is for sizes 44 to 52.

Sweatshirt no. 6 | Burda Easy 02/20

There's nothing more cutting edge than this fleece sweater dress from the Burda Easy collection. It will keep you warm while showing off your feminine side! The armholes are gathered, the collar is nicely rounded, and a finished ribbed hemline decorates the cuffs. Plus, the kangaroo pocket is a sporty detail that pairs beautifully with the straight cut and overall look. 

Dress 122 | Burda Style 12/22

This piece characterizes the athletic trend of the moment. By combining sporty materials and chic accessories, the model is worthy of any designer catwalk. It has a relaxed cut and features contrasting fabric to highlight the forearms and zipper collar facing. Don't hesitate to mix styles and details to come up with a chic and stylish dress that is totally your own!

Trousers 116 | Burda Style 03/21

Are you of the opinion that sweatpants are unfit for the office? Think again! With this chic version of the classic model, those days are long gone. The fleece fabric makes the garment super cozy to wear, but the fitted cut and classy color ensure this piece is perfect for your winter business look. Truly, what's better than combining elegance with a casual air?

Trousers 130 | Burda Style 08/22

This model is similar to the piece above, but it has a few extra details and is adapted to sizes 44 to 52. The straight cut is flattering and the elastic waist is comfortable. We love the 7/8 length of these trousers, which shows off a glimpse of ankle and is truly the fashion trend of our time.

Jacket 101 | Burda Style 01/21

A nod to the unbeatable trend of retro sports jackets, this piece is casual and chic at the same time. Opt for a fleece that's not too thick to ensure your model is comfortable and flexible. What's great about this piece is that is can be worn as an outside jacket or thrown over an outfit as an extra layer to complete a look.

Jacket 121 | Burda Style 06/17

The classic bomber jacket has just gotten better with this elongated version in cozy fleece! The curved neckline and gathered neckband are additional elements that make the model extra fine. We also are big fans of the fine details at the cuffs and along the hem. This piece is for sizes 44 to 52.
