Active looks is something men has always
pulled off better than women. The latest trends has been seen on the catwalk
for Spring/Summer 2016 and today I will bring you the latest updates on all the
key items that is a simple must have for completing this look.
If I can sum up this look in only two
words it will be ease and comfort. This look also incorporates a more layered
look that gives the idea of comfort and ease. The three main themes that will
be seen is the 1990’s mix, the summer gothlete as well as the desert explorer. With
the 1990’s mix designers were influenced by the football, casual and skater
styles and this can be seen in the large logos combined with bright colours and
of course black to create more of a graphic and youthful statement look. The
more dark “goth” inspired look from last year is now transformed into pure-white,
with the key aspect of this look still being the layering effect. With this
specific look, traditional street wear is combined with sport pieces that are
more functional. Outdoor living gets a new sandy palette that looks a lot more
like the desert explorer look with the key focus on layering, utility pockets
with colours ranging from sun-bleached bone to sand and khaki-tinged browns.
When it
comes to the key items I only decided to bring you my top 3 choices. First of
all is the track jacket, followed by the gym vest and then the tapered jog. The
track jacket can be worn on its own or under another jacket for a shirt-like
functionality. Pair this up with a tapered jog and you are ready to go. The gym
vest is emerges as a key styling piece for summer,
tucked in or worn loose with neck openings that are scooped a bit lower with
deep armholes. Lastly is the tapered jogger which offers an alternative to the
voluminous track pants. With a traditional drawcord waistband, the jog features
controlled volume through the hip, tapering below the knee to a narrow cuff.
