Over the next few weeks I aim to give an overview of the A/W 13 trends for both men and women and include images of trend looks my friends, random people and myself have created! so, here goes...
The first trend I will address is
Sport's Luxe
This trend is the most
transitional from S/S 13 but sportswear continues to be big for A/W. Influenced
by the American sports scene and street-wear of the 1990’s the look is
oversized and super casual. The trend places emphasis on oversized mesh and
jersey tops worn over skinny denim or joggers. The jogger has been completely
revamped for the new season taking a much skinnier silhouette than its
predecessors in turn making it much more wearable for 2013. A key piece for
this trend is the trainer. Whatever the brand you should invest in a pair as
they will see you perfectly over the season and I would’ve though into S/S 14
as well. Keep the colour palette for this trend simple; think monochrome or
tonal grey, however, add fun by inserting some colour through accessories or
runners.
The Look - simple sports styling created using four items. Blue short shorts are teamed with an oversized red sweatshirt. When teamed with white socks and trainers in complementary colours you achieve a simple yet fashion conscious sports look.
