Thanks, TikTok, for giving us another retro look to style for spring 2023. The rage for all things Y2K has led to what we knew was inevitable, but which we have been dreading: the luxury designer retro tracksuit set officially on trend! If you’re old enough to have lived through the Juicy Couture years, this may be a renaissance you’re planning to let pass you by. But don’t! There are some incredibly chic fresh new ways to style the tracksuit trend, and we’re sharing 10 of the new designer fashion looks we love best for spring summer 2023. ‘Cause who doesn’t want to be comfortable and chic?
ready or not, tracksuits are back for spring summer 2023
Perhaps what all fashion trends share is a penchant for controversy. Where’s the fun in wearing something automatically embraced by the masses? A true trend must inspire some raised eyebrows. With that in mind, we present the latest favorite athleisure style of the fashion set – the retro tracksuit.
This unisex outfit embraces the polished matching set look that arose out of the pandemic combined with a 1970s (and then 90s) sporty attitude. The result is an effortlessly cool and comfy ensemble that’s equally suited for WFH life and going around town. To take it up a notch, we love seeing it styled layered under a smart blazer or juxtaposed with some glittering jewels and heels a la Rihanna, Kendall, and Bella.
However you do it, expect some side eye but then carry on knowing that you’re one step ahead in your fashionable tracksuit.
