Haute sport is athleisure’s newest update
Not even Gucci and Chanel, two of fashions biggest names in high-end and luxury, can resist the pull of athleisure, or as we’re calling it, haute sport.
By now you know athleisure: what it looks like, why we love it and which celebs do it best. But did you know its origin stems from ’90s hip-hop culture? And that it stuck around during the early naughties but transformed as fashion moved towards futuristic influences? Recently the trend has been given a new spin by designers like Virgil Abloh through the stark styles of his brand Off-White. We take a look at athleisure’s latest facelift, 2019’s version, haute sport.Lisa: Free 2BU puffer jacket 499.95 SHOP NOW; Free 2BU shirt dress 349.95 SHOP NOW; Free 2BU baker boy hat 100.95; Free 2BU loafers 399.95 SHOP NOW

QUICK-FIRE TIPS & TRICKS TO GETTING THESE TRENDS RIGHT
● If you’d like to wear haute sport to work then think of pairing a laid-back pair of tracksuit pants with heels and a blazer. The trick is to keep a professional silhouette while playing with the key pieces.
● Try it on a night out. Thanks to Kim Kardashian, ski pants, a blazer and a pair of transparent heels is the new night-out uniform. Try platform sneakers for a more pared-down look.
● Proceed with caution. There really is a difference between athletic and athleisure. To nail athleisure/haute sport, remember to include pieces that speak to the ‘leisure’ or ‘haute’ side of the trend – blazers, heels, clutches, handbags and button-up shirts for example.
● Your make-up should be polished, bright and youthful. This will also help with the ‘leisure’ or ‘haute’ side of things. Make your lips or eyes pop with some colour if you feel like the outfit needs a playful edge.

Find out what the must-have recycled ’90’s trends are, how to wear them and what makes them so cool and stylish.
PUFFER JACKETS
Remember when your mom forced you to put on that big puffy jacket you didn’t want to be caught dead in? Well, the revival is real, and they are back by popular demand. Go for tartan prints or graphic colour blocking for a modern edge.Girl power
Expressing yourself through your clothing with words and slogans was popular during our favourite decade. And with the focus on feminism over the last couple of years, the slogan trend has modernised itself.The ‘dad’ sneaker
Dubbed the dad sneaker for its ‘ugly’ appearance, chunky sneakers are right on-trend. They scream comfort and effortless style. Wear with socks and a dress for that cool-girl look.Hip-hop fashion
Don the sporty hip-hop style and you’ll be perfectly on-trend. Think oversized, loose-fitting silhouettes in casual fabrics featuring sporty-like details. Perfect for fashion and comfort, not to mention Instagram!Top right: Free 2BU printed slogan sweatshirt 199.95; Free 2BU side-stripe denims 349.95;

Choosing the right pair of jeans for a perfect fit
Every woman needs at least one pair of denims that fits her body to a T. Read further for tips on how to find the right fit.
The perfect denim fit is basically a non-negotiable in the fashion world – you’d be surprised by just how much it affects your silhouette. Determining your body shape is the first step towards getting it just right.CURVY/ HOURGLASS/ PEAR
If your hips and thighs are wider than your waist, then you have an hourglass or curvy figure. A bootcut or flared leg is particularly flattering for this body shape as the wider bottoms balance out your hips, while the snug fit around the waist flatters your curvy shape. A curvy-fit straight leg is also a great choice – it moulds to the body beautifully, accentuating the hips and waist. Give yourself some extra height with booties or heels.PETITE
Opt for medium to high-rise jeans that sit at the narrowest part of your waist to show off your natural curves. Wide or flared legs can make your legs appear shorter, so either avoid this style or wear it with heels. A straight cut is most flattering for a petite shape, as it hugs the legs perfectly. Look for a tapered hem that ends on – or just above – your ankle. Dark-wash denim is your best bet, streamlining your frame and creating the appearance of length.INVERTED TRIANGLE/ATHLETIC
If your shoulders are broader than your waist and hips, you fall into this category. The trick is to accentuate your bottom half to balance your silhouette. Bootcuts and boyfriend/girlfriend jeans will achieve this. Jeans with texture and details such as cargo pockets, fades and cuffs, will further emphasise your lower half.TALL & LEAN/RECTANGULAR
Women with this body shape tend to have hips and shoulders that are the same width, with few curves and not much definition in the waist. Fortunately for you, just about every cut of denim suits this body shape. Looking to add volume to your lower half? Go for wide-leg or flared jeans with patterns and details. A skinny fit creates the illusion of curves, while low-rise to mid-waist jeans add shape to your buttocks and create a defined wasitline. Back-pocket details also draw attention to this area.APPLE
Apple-shaped bodies carry volume around the middle. Select jeans with a little more ‘give’ in the waistline for comfort, and to avoid overspill. High-waisted jeans draw attention to the waist, so rather go for a mid-rise style, or a pair with a wide waistband. Make the most of your slim legs by wearing a straight cut or a slight bootcut to balance out your proportions. Denims in contrasting colours will add contouring to your thighs.All items subject to availability. Prices may change.

THE TREND: THE NEW ANIMAL PRINT
Who doesn’t love a bit of animal print? This season welcomes back the notorious trend, but this time in bold colours, new silhouettes and more versatility.
Animal print is back with a vengeance. Bolder colours, unexpected silhouettes and diverse patterns put a fresh twist on the trend this season.
A staple in most autumn/winter fashion week collections, animal print has migrated to summer in colours, patterns and styles we previously only dreamed of (thank you fashion gods). Just look at Off-White’s snakeskin in battery-acid green, Burberry’s brown cow-print skirts and Roberto Cavalli’s abstract tiger/zebra hybrids – all of which made the classic leopard print look (dare we say it) rather basic on the SS19 runways.
If extra oomph is something you appreciate, mixing animal prints in unexpected ways will do just that – it's a surefire way to add quirk to any outfit. More is more is more, so be daring and stand out with the must-have pieces you can shop below.
