How to master the Eclectic Grandpa Look In 2024

The Eclectic Grandpa Style seamlessly merges with the hyped Old Money Style while maintaining its distinctive features. It embraces Grandpa core elements like layering, oversized silhouettes, corduroy, velvet, and retro patterns. Earth tones, black, and gray dominate the palette, with pops of vibrant colors like orange or mustard yellow. Knitwear adds nostalgia and coziness, while maintaining timeless classics and simple elegance. Check out my top 5 picks below.

Bella Hadids look here gives a good example for the Eclectic Grandpa Vibe with wearing a mini checked blazer, what gives a touch of sophistication and structure to the ensemble. The bold orange shade adds a pop of colour, while the playful print on the sweater vest brings personality to the outfit.
