Tracksuits are not synonymous with the word "chic." Sure, they're cool, and thanks to the athleisure trend, have become acceptable attire for the fashion crowd. But while a few seasons ago side-striped tracksuit pants paired with shirts were the way to incorporate sportswear into outfits, today, it's a much more coordinated and sleek affair.
All over Copenhagen and New York Fashion Week, people attended shows in tracksuits. But there was one other styling trick that all of them used to define this very 2020 take on the tracksuit: a great coat worn over the top.
Whether it was a teddy coat over a matching lemon yellow sweatshirt and trousers or a ribbed co-ord with a complimentary pink jacket, there are plenty of different ways to wear this lazy outfit combo. The fact that it's super comfortable is just a happy coincidence.
Of course, there also some additional styling notes to be aware of to ensure that your tracksuit and coat outfit is the chicest it can be. For example, wearing an of-the-moment gold chain or a statement handbag will also give this look a fashion boost. Ready to see how you'll style it? Keep scrolling…
