“Gymnasium” by Beatrice Brandini

I’ve already talked about how widely, particularly in recent years, the boundaries between fashion and sport have approached. Many indeed are the collaborations between fashion designers and sports brands, including designers, artists ….; many fashion shows in which also carry the luxury fashion house runway garments from the impression technique or even just borrowed from sports, such as sneakers, jackets, sweatshirts, woven mesh type, neoprene, nylon, polyester …., thanks to greater freedom to interpret the fashion and a new concept of “elegance”.

We are all full of commitments but it is mainly women who want to be comfortable without sacrificing their femininity, with a touch of originality and style. Perhaps this is why the giant e-commerce, Net-a-Porter, has created a website specifically dedicated to clothing “athletic leisure”, or Net-a-Sporter.

Like every year, the Swedish giant H & M’s low cost, has hired a talented designer build a small collection, it is no coincidence that this year is the time of Alexander Wang. The change of “route” had been there last year with a chic portable Isabel Marat, that is no longer Cavalli, Lanvin, Versace and Lagerfeld, but designers more “democratic”, less “demanding” more facing the street and the sporstwear.

The collection designed by Wang is a perfect mix of research to be cool even when I enjoy sport and dressing informally in everyday life. Wang about not having recourse to the archives but he has created a collection from scratch.

Comme de Garçon for Speedo

The line Wang – H&M was made in Italy, both for the raw materials for the workforce. The same Wang admitted that only Italy could guarantee the quality, and it’s amazing that just the undisputed ruler of the low cost fashion, H&M, look here … its production, which should actually be proud and encourage us to trust in the wonderful word that is Made in Italy.

Emilio Pucci for Rossignol

   

Raf Simons for Adidas

A few years ago if you had told me that I would have worked a lot in the sports world would not have believed, as I was fond of fashion, however, not only is exactly what happened, but I was happy because it’s a fascinating world, “clean”, full of stimuli and real challenges (ironically …), competitive in a healthier way.

Good life at all!
