Listen up, folks! Let's put an end to the discussion on this one. 'This one' being the continuing trend towards sporty clothes/shoes becoming a natural part of the modern fashionable wardrobe. To put it mildly, it's forging ahead at full steam. This is good news for anyone who's wary of fashion's tendency to declare a thing is in one season and out the next. Athletic fashion is here to stay.
The sporty trend was, not surprisingly, all over the catwalks. just look at the way Gucci's head designer Frida Giannini made the tracksuit fit for an ultra-suave party in luscious metallic and transparent materials. Sporty bottoms were also favoured by DKNY, who showed them an ice-cold blue and with a matching cropped top.
Jonathan Saunders got in on the athletic action and presented a critically lauded collection filled with sport's multicoloured shapes, jackets and, yes, you guessed it, tracksuit bottoms - albeit in versions unlikely to be seen on an actual track or field. Prada did legwarmer sports socks, and paired them with dresses that made you think of basketball jerseys; Alexander Wang updated culottes with athletic stripes.
Sport is everywhere in 2014, and the age-old question of whether you want to look fashionable while training or deploy your training gear to look fashionable is not really valid any more. What were once two different wardrobes are not just part of your overall style!!!
