A/W '16, athleisure wear, fashion staple, fashion trends, gender neutral fashion, runway presentations

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-

athleisure wear continues to dominate runway presentation and street style.

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,

pieces from sportswear  labels (Adidas, Puma, etc.).

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

keeping warm and looking good!

Be sublte with athleisure pieces or go bold for gold

for a winning style statement.

Ankle socks of varying textures

worn with heeled shoes of varying details-

solidly remain a wow-factor,  fashion fabulous feature

which will continue to reign supreme well into 2016.

 

Yes!

 

I am totally an enthusiast of this footwear pairing:

flirty,  playful,  whimsical

of a visual interest

of added dress dimension

of styling versatility

of the mode

the sock / heeled shoe combination is of this season

and the next, and the next.

 

 

 

Consider a few style sass options as staple wardrobe wearables-

incorporate as a signature look.
