They still have attitude, but fingerless gloves are no longer reserved for misunderstood youths and beer peddlers at Bruins games. In luxurious, neutral-colored knits like heather-gray cashmere and black mohair, this season’s elbow-skimming accents are equal parts 1940s glamour and 1980s punk. The indoor-outdoor style instantly refreshes the ubiquitous layering trend, whether dressed down with a tunic and jeans, or jazzed up with a statement skirt and a simple turtleneck. Just don’t go overboard: Paired with leg warmers, the digit-free look can feel a little desperate.
