Saks Fall Trend Report: Street Smart

Sponsor Content Created With Saks

The athleisure trend has grown with us over the past few years, continuing to evolve and keep the ever-fickle fashion crowd engaged. This season, the signature piece stepping onto the court is the puffer jacket—ideally worn off the shoulder as seen at Balenciaga. Other team members include the ever-popular bomber jacket, the hoodie (Vetements), track pants, and the sports-inspired sweater (Louis Vuitton). To nail the look, think less prep and more street. And, finally, make sure to wear a pair of smart sneakers—it’s practically the only footwear choice worth considering. Just check out how our favorite street style stars wear it for proof.
