Athleisure wear has evolved from a fashion trend to a fashion staple;

influencing dress options for work, fun and smart casual.

Gender neutural, age neutral-

Create a signature, on-point look for autumn / winter fashion 2016;

incorporate key elements of athleisure attire:

track suit tops/bottoms, hoodies, sweatshirts, leggings,

trousers with contrast colour side stripes,

jersey sports top, immaculate white trainers,

Gentle layering forms a sleek silhouette while keeping the chill at bay-

she’s the talented daughter of famed designer

Yohji Yamamoto.

designer, Limi Feu

…

 

Like her internationally renown parent,

Ms. Feu leans towards

a black / white colour palette

an agender attitude (androgynous dress)

oversized / loose fit garments

elements of architectural contours

 

 

In addition, her aesthetics incorporates an urban infused vibe

a generous injection of urban-chic sass,

the occasional hint of subdued colour and/or pattern and

a “free to be me” style comment.
