I have a tip to add: My mum always told me not to store my sweaters hanging, since it can stretch the fibers and they end up looking weird, specially those that are pretty heavy. Instead, I fold them and pile them.

I love how much knowledge you have on clothing and fashion. Especially when a lot of the population think that people who talk about fashion and clothing a lot are “dumb” but it’s really not and there’s a lot more to it and you definitely show this.

Interesting video that touched on some important issues re sweaters, although there is so much more to say about them. I knit, mostly sweaters, since I'm also obsessed with them (I have knit and own what I describe as a "ridiculous" number of sweaters, and I cannot stop!), I've designed my own and teach a class on knitting sweaters that look and fit great. If there's one thing that knitting and designing sweaters teaches you, it's about the relationship between knitted fabric, sweater construction, and realizing what does and doesn't work for your body type. And also what look you're going for.
First off is knowing your body type. Second is understanding the different types of sweater constructions and if they will work well with your body type. Third is making sure that there's a match between the yarn used and the sweater construction. Fourth is making sure you wear a given sweater with its appropriate bottom. Think fitted sweaters over loose, flow-y skirts or pants, and oversized sweaters over skinny jeans or fitted skirts. Hi-low hem sweaters are great with leggings because they cover the butt.
Most common sweater constructions:
- drop sleeve: oversized; in its most basic form, is two rectangles or squares, and trapezoid sleeves. Neckline can be everything from boatneck to scooped. No shaping to these, as your video shows. Not going to look that great on larger, plus-sized women. Best worn with fitted skirts/pants/jeans, as you've shown, and out of thinner yarn. Stripes, textured stitches, cables or lace are all good with this style. However, a surefire way to look 20 lbs heavier than you are is to get a drop-sleeve sweater knit out of big, fat yarn, and full of cables (or worse yet, bobbles) that creates a stiff, very dense fabric. Classic Aran-styled sweaters are usually this style, and while quite beautiful, are just never going to be flattering on most women. They look great on dudes, though, and are incredibly warm when knit out of wool.
- modified drop sleeve: I love these; they borrow from the set-in sleeve sweater with shoulder shaping and maybe a small notch where the sleeve joins the body under the arm. These help improve the drape and fit of the sweater by cutting down on the bulk of the sweater. I don't see these in stores, but a style that is flattering on many body types is the oversized boxy pullover with fitted sleeves. In order to work, they need to be out of thinner, drape-y yarns.
- raglan sleeves: these may be seamed or un-seamed. Can be fitted (negative ease) or oversized (positive ease). They tend to look best on average to athletic women with broader shoulders since they have no inherent shaping at the yoke, and women with narrow shoulders can look frumpy in them. Wool or wool blends are ideal, rather than cotton or rayon/viscose, as these will grow, causing the sweater to drag down over time, and look even LESS flattering. They are damn comfortable and great as a throw-on sweater, though! If they are fitted and have waist shaping, they can be incredibly awesome.
- set-in sleeve: that Forever 21 sweater was an example (very poor, albeit) of this type of sweater; that sweater had a shallow, poorly shaped armscye. A proper-fitting set-in sleeve sweater should have the edge of the shoulder seam hit right where a properly fitting blazer would - right at the edge of the shoulder. The geometry of the armscye and sleeve cap shaping can vary, but it needs to match properly or the sweater will not fit or just look awful. This is the one style of sweater that, if fitted properly, will flatter every body type. Seaming keeps the knit fabric from sagging over time, and these are usually worn with no ease, or maybe 1" either way.
- circular yoke sweaters: think Fair Isle or Norwegian style wool sweaters. These are usually constrained by the color design pattern that is part of the sweater, which limits their construction. Like raglans, they look best on women who have broad shoulders and are not busty. However, if you're a knitter and have some serious boobage going on, you can add bust darts to these and make them work.
- dolman sleeves: no sleeve seams, can be knit sideways or vertical. Sleeve shape can vary a lot, but it's usually quite wide at the arm/shoulder area and taper out to the cuff. More flattering if knit out of thinner yarn that drapes and fitted a bit lower in the sleeves.
You clearly have a body type that can look good in all of these sweater styles, you are lucky! I'd toss out that piece of crap Forever 21 sweater, tho, and get a nice set-in sleeve sweater that fits properly and isn't out of cheap acrylic yarn - you'll be amazed at the difference!

My goal in life is to own an ungodly amount of sweaters and drown in them
no
*me being a human who is too lazy and sleeps in everyday to think about clothes and has like 17 hoodies with basically the same neckline and style* nice
