The battle for sportswear continues. Performance apparel has completely disrupted the fashion industry. In a season where NYFW was dominated not by traditional fashion houses like Gucci and Prada, it was upstarts like Kith and the Tim Coppens UAS division athletic inspired casual lines that established itself as the dominant style in the upcoming fashion season.
The guady, colorful apparel that teens have made cool and that helped launch brands like Pink Dolphin or Trukfit in the past have been taken over by a more subtle approach that is more mature and can be worn as either work attire or casual attire.
