One of my favorite terms in the eco-fashion realm is “Trans-Seasonal”. Trans-Seasonal or Seasonless fashion refers to garments that can be worn in more than one and ideally all seasons. These pieces put much more flexibility into your wardrobe. They stretch your fashion dollar and add space to your closet. Think mid-weight breathable fabrics in colors that don’t scream “Autumn” or some other season at you.
A favorite trans-seasonal piece I have been wearing since last winter is Icebreaker’s merino wool Henley in bark. The fabulously soft and non-itchy merino warms me in autumn/winter and cools me in spring/summer. Its light weight works well on its own when it is warm and as a layering piece with a vest or jacket in the cooler temps. And the soft brown color works beautifully in all seasons. I turn to this piece regularly except during the hottest days of summer when I do not want to wear long sleeves.
