What are the most comfortable women's tracksuit sets for travel and leisure?
For the ultimate blend of comfort and style in women's tracksuit sets for travel and leisure, look no further than the latest loungewear trends dominating the fashion scene. In 2023, oversized silhouettes, soft fabrics like cashmere and fleece, and minimalist monochromatic sets are all the rage. Many brands are also incorporating eco-friendly materials and sustainable practices into their designs, making ethical fashion choices easier than ever, and using more comfortable, breathable materials. Additionally, elevated details like asymmetrical cuts, unique logo printing, and chic colour-blocking are adding a high-fashion twist to these cozy ensembles. To shop anything like this, you only have to look to the wide number of leading essentials and loungewear brands—like Sporty & Rich, Sir, Camilla & Marc, Bassike and Country Road—to find a fashionable yet comfortable set in their collections. So, whether you're jet-setting or lounging at home, fashion-forward tracksuit sets are your go-to option for staying cozy and stylish.
What's the right women's tracksuit set for my body type?
Choosing the perfect women's tracksuit set that complements your body type is all about accentuating your best features whilst feeling comfortable. For petite women, opt for cropped jackets and pants to create the illusion of a taller frame. Vertical stripes or subtle patterns can also help elongate your silhouette. If you have an hourglass figure, go for tracksuits with cinched waists to highlight your curves. For apple-shaped bodies, choose tracksuits with a looser fit and open necklines to balance out the proportions. Athletic body types can experiment with various styles, but consider tracksuits with defined waistbands to create more definition. Pear-shaped individuals should focus on tops with eye-catching details and darker bottoms to draw attention upward. Ultimately, confidence is key, so don't be afraid to try different styles and find what makes you feel your best.
What are some sustainable and eco-friendly brands that specialise in tracksuit sets?
With greater pushes towards sustainability and ethical practices in the fashion world, loungewear and tracksuit sets are more eco-friendly than ever. Many reputable brands will aim to deliver 100 per cent organic materials and garments made sustainably throughout their collections, such as Bassike's organic jersey line and Vege Threads' eco-friendly ethos across the brand. Other brands like Assembly Label and Sir have made commitments to offering sustainable products in their loungewear ranges, and you'll be sure to find an eco-friendly set that suits you from these lines.
How do I style a tracksuit?
All-neutral tracksuits can often work best for styling, as they provide a simple base over which you can layer everything from a trench coat to a leather blazer—just like Hailey Bieber. While you’ll likely be relatively warm in a thick enough tracksuit, a set can often be just not enough. Opt for a casual denim jacket layered over the top of a hoodie for a light layer, or go all in with a heavy camel trench coat over a taupe set for the ultimate in tonal layering.
Shoes-wise, stick to the casual base your tracksuit has provided and opt for a comfortable, staple pair of sneakers. Whether they’re sporty or stylish is up to you. Simple, minimalist gold jewellery is also a good option for day wear—look to Rosie Huntington-Whiteley for inspiration, and opt for gold Jessica McCormack sleepers, or dainty single diamond necklaces from the likes of Sarah & Sebastian.
When was the tracksuit invented?
While fashion history can get dicey about the specific origin stories of items of clothing, the tracksuit is understood to have been invented all the way back in the 1930s. It became more popular, however, as a form of sportswear when Adidas brought out a line of tracksuits in the 1960s. Consider the 2020s as another pivotal moment in the history of the beloved tracksuit: when everyone abandoned their usual workwear in favour of the comfortable, cosy alternative.
