END. CURATES: ACTIVE INSPIRATION

Sports and physical activities have long provided inspiration for fashion. From running and cycling to gorpcore and hiking, the aesthetics of movement and exercise have permeated deeply into the world of womenswear. With fresh outerwear, knitwear, essential accessories and footwear, END. Curates turns the spotlight onto Active Inspiration.

Rising to the top of athletic inspirations in recent years, football has become an evergreen stylistic trend. Tapping into the love of the beautiful game, adidas’ Samba sneakers continue to return in new iterations, while football inspired tops add further flair, especially when coupled with skorts from Peachy Den and layering pieces from Adanola, Jil Sander+ and Sporty & Rich.

Taking things off piste with a touch of alpine style, skiing provides a perfect base for inspiration this winter season. Ski goggles from Gucci and a skiing-coded pullover jacket from Cecilie Bahnsen add a luxurious twist to these looks, while snow boots from Moncler and a cream knitted co-ord from 4th & Reckless imbue the ensemble with a classy, chalet sensibility.

Conjuring up inspiration from wellness pursuits, Casablanca’s sports line offers the ideal combo of bra and shorts for a morning of pilates, while SKIMS’ tonal cotton jersey pieces are perfected for a day at the yoga studio.

Rounding off the edit, gorpcore returns with outerwear from Nike’s ACG line, accessorised with an Arc’Teryx Mantis 26 Backpack, Nalgene water bottle and Oakley RSLV sunglasses to block out that low lying January sun.
