From Fashion Week to the GLAMOUR office to your local gym, let’s face it, everyone is wearing Adidas – whether it’s one of the brand’s iconic tracksuits or the still-beloved Sambas.
Adidas is everywhere. It’s all over the catwalks too, thanks to coveted collaborations with Stella McCartney and Wales Bonner.
I’ve always wanted to own a two-piece tracksuit myself – but wouldn’t even know where to begin. Would it would suit me? Could I pull it off? I headed to the Adidas Flagship Store on Oxford Street in London to find out.
On arrival, I couldn’t get over how big the store was. With four floors packed full of active and loungewear, it’s safe to say I was overwhelmed to begin with – before I was led to the basement floor, a quieter section, where you’ll find the Originals collection.
Below: Everything I tried on at Adidas and fell in love with…
The red oversized tracksuit:
I immediately noticed this two-piece tracksuit when I entered the store – and grabbed it as soon as I could. It’s definitely something that screams fashion girlie, right? The oversized jacket is mega comfy – and super flattering considering it runs quite large. I could easily wear it to the Condé Nast office and will be guaranteed to get a flurry of compliments. Pair this tracksuit with either trainers or heels and you’ve got a day to evening look.
Up next, we have this brown Adicolor Beckenbauer number, paired with SL 72 OG trainers. I would never usually grab something like this, but was pleasantly surprised at how it looked. The jacket, paired with the bottoms, gives a vintage feel with the white collar. I loved pairing them with the metallic sneakers – a trend that has been hitting the streets of fashion week this year. Again, not the sort of trainers I would usually grab off the shelves, but they definitely completed the outfit. Love.
