Trend we LOVE: Luxury Sportswear

For the past few months, I have been very disappointed in fashion. At first I thought it was because I used to work as a buyer in Puerto Rico and always saw trends in apparel or shoes before they became mainstream. Usually when everyone was very into a trend I was already sick of it. I tried to stay patient….nothing. I visited the stores (affordable and high end) over and over and….nothing. Same thing that I’ve been seeing for over a year now! Tribal prints, flowers, crochet, plaids, UGH! I was constantly discussing this with my fashionista friends and we all agreed… what’s happening?! I was BORED! Finally, a week ago, I went to H&M and was impressed by the looks on the mannequins. I’ve always been a fan of oversized stuff and even though the 90s have been IN for a while now, I still like them and even more now, with this minimalistic/street/sporty/chic direction going on.

This DKNY Resort 2015 collection which was presented in June blew my mind and represents perfectly the luxury sportswear mania. The label is celebrating its 25th anniversary and I guess the design team went all out, successfully. The color palette is beautiful: neutrals with accents of red, blue and my favorite, peach. Feathers, tulle, sheer pieces, embellishments, bomber jackets, pearls, wow! To keep it interesting, they paired these ultra feminine pieces with caps and sneakers. It’s the perfect mix of ladylike and tomboy. This collection was definitely my favorite for Resort 2015.
