Sportswear & Streetwear

Sportswear and fashion has made an interesting duo over the last few years within contemporary fashion both on the high street and on the catwalk. The duo sparks that many designers have gained much of their inspiration from the street, this is because many of us combine sportswear to our everyday outfits and we have broken the barrier that sportswear can only be worn during sporting activity. There have been many designers that support or have supported sportswear in their collections over the years, menswear designer Astrid Andersen has captivated the sportswear and streetwear style in the last 7 collections she has designed, she has created looks that are very masculine that capture the street attitude persona and finishing it with hip hop references. What I find very interesting about her designs is that although she only creates clothing for men, much of the materials she uses are very feminine along with the colours also.
