turtlenecked
Wearing folded neckwear
Turtlenecked describes someone wearing a turtleneck—a garment with a high, close-fitting collar that folds over and covers the neck: a turtlenecked professor, turtlenecked beatniks in a coffeehouse.
The word often evokes a certain intellectual or artistic aesthetic.
