Sporting Life
Recently in passing conversation, an acquaintance said, “Walking by the window of a department store, a Calvin Klein Collection piece caught my eye, and I was surprised! Alexander Wang is making the way for sport brands like Calvin Klein and SportMax, even Armani, to make a comeback.”
Those Calvin Klein clothes
in the window included a forest green suede professional set, a skirt and
calf-length jacket with drop shoulders and gold loops for belts at hip and
chest, and underneath, a midriff-baring, cropped turtleneck shirt. It was
reminiscent of the 90s, a time when suede was worn in casual and professional context with equal sway.
Where brand names like
Armani had previously run in a conservative business realm of the outdated
professional look, their streamlined contours and no-frills finishings have
never looked so fresh. Is it because those touches – the hidden button flap,
exposed stitching and zippers, clunky pockets, heavy straps, knee-length
skirts in combination with longish sleeves – have been co-opted into younger sport brands?
