Trend Tracker: Athleisure


As the latest Karl Lagerfeld athleisure collection shows, this trend is only getting hotter

2021 is the year of athleisure reinvented. While the term has been on the fashion radar for a while now and hugely popularised during 2020 when working from home and loungewear-all-the-time became the norm, our 2021 athleisure uniform has upped its game. And the results are gold medal worthy! Cue the brand new K/Athleisure collection from Karl Lagerfeld at McArthurGlen. Sporty and chic, it combines supple lines with soft fabrics and ultra-flattering silhouettes. It’s shaping up to be a very comfortable season...

Something for the Girls

When talking about trends, nothing has had such an enormously widespread impact on the way we dress now as our commitment to leisurewear. Whether you’ve always been a leisurewear fan or are a new devotee, you’ll have noticed that SS22 is the season that designers are upping the ante when it comes to elegant athletic and casual wear. KARL LAGERFELD is a case in point. The inimitable brand’s SS22 offering at McArthurGlen combines laidback Parisian style with a modern, athletic sensibility, summed up by the man himself when he said “Fashion is an attitude more than a clothing detail.” A back-to-basics approach will give your summer wardrobe a cool, clean vibe. Cue simple jersey sportswear-style dresses, classic tees and those can’t-live-without-them jeans.

Pink, in all shades from blush to baby, is a key trend this summer and KARL LAGERFELD’s at McArthurGlen has it covered. A ‘pretty in pink’ padded oversize tote bag and cotton bucket hat will elevate your wardrobe basics without looking like you’ve tried too hard. Too cool to care? Check out the coach jacket, red leather bucket bag and fresh white tees for an instant wardrobe refresh that you’ll love wearing.

Something for the Boys

When it comes to menswear KARL LAGERFELD at McArthurGlen has brought its A game this season. Think cotton t-shirts that you’ll want to live in all summer, plus well-cut shorts and smart jeans for a preppy, urban athleisure look. Like to combine your athleisure with a heady dose of on-trend hues?
