I used to hate all those "sporty" editorials that
Vogue and
Teen Vogue featured at least once every two months because they tried so hard to make normal clothes "sporty," and somehow "sporty" clothes had to be blindingly neon. This spring, however, it seems that sporty clothes have gone uptown, and I much prefer this style to
Vogue's. "Sporty" clothes suggest comfort, and even in fashion comfort and wearability have their place.
That's why hip designers like Isabel Marant and Philip Lim have made sweatshirts and tennis shoes into fashionable must-haves by using sleek fabrics and muted hues to appeal to a more sophisticated set. Who says we must
always suffer for fashion?
