Shui Chen Debuts with Cozy Cover-Ups

The Socially Acceptable Snuggie

shui chen!

We don’t blame you for trying to make public Snuggies happen. (However, we would had you been successful.)

Expose your cozy side with clothes from Shui Chen. The NYC-based designer’s first full collection has launched with alpaca wool jackets and pullovers that are the clothing equivalent of s’mores.

Slip on a chevron-patterned cowl-neck vest (with or without matching wool shorts); once colder weather hits, a gray and white triangle-print poncho is frisky yet sophisticated. For an easy layered look, go for a thick-collared, nubby charcoal cocoon jacket with half-wool, half-cotton sleeves.

Each piece is fully lined to keep fibers from itching and finished with leather piping and polished zippers that close from the top down. And Chen’s cover-ups are cropped in front, longer in back, so you can envelop your bod without adding bulk.

Or bad judgment.

Available online at shuichen.com, $194-$415.
