Active

Defining characteristics

• Athletic-influenced silhouettes and fabrics
• Functional details: zips, drawstrings, ribbing
• Comfortable, performance-derived materials
• A preference for ease of movement
• Trainers and clean sportswear-influenced footwear
• Understated and clean overall effect

Wardrobe staples

• Quality hoodies and sweatshirts
• Well-fitted joggers in clean fabrications
• Tracksuit pieces in elevated fabrics
• Clean, minimal trainers
• Bomber or track-inspired jackets
• Polo shirts and oversized tees
• Ribbed or knit casual sets
• Crossbody bags or backpacks

Colour

Active dressing works well in clean neutrals: white, black, grey and navy, often with bold colour-blocked accents or a single strong tone. Quality and restraint elevate the look above simple athleisure.

Fit and silhouette

Fit should feel easy and unrestricted, but never shapeless or excessively baggy. Clean lines within a relaxed silhouette are the goal. Proportion matters even here.

What to avoid

• Very formal or structured pieces
• Fussy or delicate fabrics
• Heavy embellishment or ornamentation
• Stiff tailoring that restricts movement

When it works best

• Everyday casual dressing
• Errands, travel and active days
• Weekend socialising
• Casual creative or informal workplaces
