The notorious music festival Coachella has set a high bar for summer 2019 festival trends; from biker shorts and sequins to neon and transparency. Here is the low-down of what Coachella had to offer and how activewear is taking on these festival vibes.
Neon
The ethos here is simple, the brighter the better. These fluorescent shades know no boundaries with front runner colours of lime green, hot pink and flaming orange. If you want to stand out, then this is definitely the trend for you.
See-through
Transparency is becoming a major trend in the fashion world, not only in terms of sustainability, but the actual clothes themselves. This is especially great for activewear as you want light, breathable fabrics that allow movement and flexibility. Sheer is the word and it has never looked better.
Sequins
It is simply not a festival without sequins. They serve as a staple feature, adding a certain effervescence to the outfit. Whether they are all over the garment or accentuating a specific part, these shimmering beauties will certainly jazz up your look.
Biker shorts
Who would’ve thought that cycling shorts (originally used to stop your legs from chafing against the saddle) would become such a key summer piece? This is where practicality meets fashion. Finishing just above the knee, you don’t have to worry about your shorts riding up when you walk or the dreaded chafing! Lycra is the fabric of choice and the tighter the better.
Has this inspired you to create your own activewear collection or revamp your existing one? If so, then you’re in the right place.
