Cosiness is key so who wore a tracksuit better? Rihanna Or Mel C

Whether you are at home isolating, still working or supporting friends, family members of neighbours we are all spending alot more of time time at home and for many people that means a pyjama day or if you have the energy reaching for a tracksuit. This trusty sportswear friend has infiltrated fashion trends for the last 50 years but in these Covid-19-defined times, it has really come into its own as a uniform for the nation.

How do you wear yours? Perhaps you take your style from Rihanna, whose way with an oversized silhouette paired with sleek stilettos and plenty of logos truly puts the luxe into leisurewear. Or maybe you’re a Juicy Versace devotee? If you’re in need of styling ideas, find your tracksuit vibe here.

Rihanna’s Big Brand Energy

Like anything BadGal does, the Rihanna take on tracksuits is major. Expect to see her wearing them in oversized silhouettes paired with high-voltage goods – Chanel tweed jackets, a Dior Book Tote, Bottega Veneta heels – and constant blackout shades. How to ape her insouciant glamour? Pair together pieces in sweatshirt fabrics at least two sizes larger than you usually take, then trade out traditional sports accessories for those worthy of RiRi’s approval.

’00s It-Girl Realness Returned

The recent relaunch of Juicy Couture could not have come at a better time. While Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears have more-or-less left their velour tracksuits in the ’00s, we haven’t. Pick one up and wear them as they did: with logo tees, bare mid-riff, hair perfectly straightened, and be sure to make up for the lack of Instagram time these tracksuits missed out on during their heyday.

Sporty Spice’s Kick-Ass Comebacks

The original tracksuit icon Mel C’s signature still thrives today. Those looking for a nod to nostalgia and that omnipresent ’90s throwback we are still seeing trending will find their #WFH tracksuit identity in her Adidas trousers, crop tops and sports-team shirts. Scraped-back ponytails and high-kick poses welcome.

Hailey Bieber’s Haute Take

Sticking to earthy, tonal shades, Hailey takes the tracksuit out of both activewear and lazy-day territory to instead propose it as the ultimate in indulgent, sumptuous style, notably opting for paired pieces in drapey fine knits or marrying up sweatpants with a sharp blazer. We’re very here for this interpretation.
