Styling Your Tracksuit For More Than Casual Occasions

Tracksuits for both men and women have become a stylish staple in the wardrobe. With the rise of athleisure and loungewear brands and gaining popularity among customers, celebrities, and people who value comfort above all else but don’t want to skip on the fashion element, it’s encouraged individuals to shop more tracksuits that add an element of chic to the outfit. 

As new brands are emerging, such as SKIMs, TALA, END, and Closure London, different forms of tracksuits are being made for women and men, allowing a range of comfortable styles to be rocked for many occasions.

Wanting to wear your tracksuit everything but not knowing how to style it for different occasions? I have you covered, as an individual who loves merging comfort with unconventional times.

Tracksuit Bottoms

The comfiest pants you will ever find so it makes complete sense that you will want to wear them any and everywhere. As designers have come up with a range of styles for classic tracksuit pants, this gives us many options to choose from to help elevate an outfit. We have seen many celebrities rock tracksuit pants with a pair of heels, such as Kim Kardashian, and for that look, you want to go with cuffed joggers. 

Full Tracksuit

Whether it be a men’s tracksuit or a woman’s one, there are so many ways for you to style this piece, and it is suitable to wear for many occasions. Knitted tracksuits seem to be all the craze of their high-quality appearance; these would go perfectly with a pair of chunky trainers or stylish coats, making it the perfect option for brunch, running errands, or seeing friends.

Fabrics

As mentioned above, knitted tracksuits and pieces are all of the hype at the moment; it makes sense that fabric is a very key component in whether your tracksuit is suitable for nicer occasions. GSM is very key; the higher it is, the heavier, thicker, and better quality it will be. Opting for a high GSM cotton fabric is perfect for winter but also looks very expensive.

Other fabrics to keep an eye out for are a wool blend knit, fleece, and blends with other fabrics such as elastane to give some stretch.

Silhouettes

In order for you to style a tracksuit in multiple ways, you must pick the right silhouette. Picking a style and shape that works best for your body type is extremely important; choosing the right fit allows you to play with the silhouettes much more easily and can make a real difference when it comes to elevating your outfits to make them look more expensive and made to you.

Accessories

Choose your accessories wisely, A tracksuit is a perfect choice as it’s ready-styled to go but there are some additions you can make that can make a world of difference and transform your outfit to the next level. Think about chunky shoes, sunglasses, caps, jewellery, and bags; these little yet significant additions can completely change your outfit and make it ready for a range of occasions.

Today is the perfect time to wear a tracksuit, as they are a trend, and find new and creative ways to put your comfy yet stylish looks together.

Proportions

As mentioned, proportions are important, so don’t be afraid to mess around with them. Whether you are using a few bobby pins to manipulate the structure or simply tucking in here and there for a more polished look, there are many ways you can make your tracksuit stand out among the rest. The same goes with adding additional pieces to your tracksuit, whether it be a shirt, an oversized t-shirt that pokes out the bottom and so forth. These can help create new and exciting proportions for you to play around with.

Colour

Colour is another key component. I find colours like grey to be harder to elevate and take out of the traditional tracksuit view. Adding pops of colour, graphics, and textures can really help style your gym tracksuit into something more special. Blacks still and always will remain more chic so maybe you can start with dark and work your way up to bold, bright, and colourful pieces.

Find Inspiration

As mentioned before, many celebrities have rocked and styled a tracksuit and done it so well; don’t be afraid to look for inspiration if it’s not coming straight away. This can create a lightbulb moment with pieces and accessories you already have and allow you to build a new, comfortable, and essential outfit for when you want to look good but while you are in your tracksuit.

Final Thoughts

Whether you are styling a men’s tracksuit or a women’s, there are so many ways to take your tracksuit to the next level. Whether you find inspiration from others or you play around until you find something that works uniquely to your style, you will find the perfect way to turn your tracksuit into another chic outfit.
