Can Athletic Wear Be Elegant?

Athletic wear has taken over fashion from the gym to the streets. We’re seeing it everywhere but is it appropriate for all occasions? Can athletic wear be elegant enough to wear to a more formal event, say a dinner or a meeting?

At ViSH NYC we say YES! Athletic wear can be elegant. Just check out the ViSH NYC Seasonless Collection and you’ll see for yourself. The made-to-order Birthday Dress is the epitome of elegance, while the Iris Pants and Fleur Jacket offer a modest, refined look.

Obviously not all athleisure styles are suitable for all occasions, but when you’ve got a timeless design coupled with high performance materials the result is elegant athleisure. Let’s break down the fashion trend to understand further what can make athleisure elegant (like our ViSH NYC collection: click to view all items). 

A formula for success: fashion + function.

A fancy look comes from a well tailored outfit made in high quality materials, and athletic wear comes from comfortable and functional gear - combine the two and you’ve got the ultimate style solution. Elegant athleisure can be worn to the office, meetings, parties, and beyond. Anywhere that requires a well put together look is the perfect place to wear your elegant athleisure.

An added bonus - you can even wear your fancy outfit to the gym or to the park because it’s so easy to move in. The truth is our busy lifestyles call for versatile fashion that allows us to look good and feel good no matter where we are. This revolutionary clothing design will be your new go-to-outfit. So if you don’t own any high end athleisure pieces yet, make it your 2019 fashion goal (we know it’s April already, but better late than never).

Be open to discovering new brands and new style solutions. ViSH NYC really is modern elegance; read our previous blog on this.

According to Harper’s Bazaar 2019 Wardrobe Resolutions, “Make an effort to discover new brands...It’s great to have your core favourites who you trust and you know last well, but there are always so many new, amazing brands hitting the market that are waiting to be discovered. From high-end designer labels to more affordable mid-range brands, keep exploring all year round. You’ll end up with some truly special, stylish finds (that - bonus - nobody else has).”
