The Office Playoffs

1 min read

Mixing high-energy colour palettes with athletic silhouettes, this season’s office attire is all about laid back luxury as sports inspired pieces make their way in to the boardrooms. 

This season designers are blurring the boundaries between fitness and office attire, giving a high-fashion take on the usual casual style. Think: bomber jackets, low slung trousers and racer-back tops for a wearable style – with a spirit of athleticism. Injecting a touch of sports luxe to her runway collection, Victoria Beckham redefined the association of comfort into mainstream fashion. Opting for sleek styles with notable sport influences through lightweight fabrics and racer stripe detailing. A front runner in active-inspired fashion, Alexander Wang took show-goers on a journey through the brand’s functional aesthetic for his 10th anniversary show.  Bringing back streetwear staples in unassuming designs, the designer chose a retrospective angle for his collection. Opting for masculine leather jackets, mesh tops, micro crops and slouchy trousers, all providing his trademark cool appeal. The secret to this trend is mixing comfort, sophistication and luxury in a harmonious way. Focusing on key sporting elements with tailored staples will create a balance, suitably inspiring your office wardrobe with an touch of active flair.
