The piece
How to choose and wear leggings
Close-fitting stretch trousers for sport and comfort. Outside the gym they need a longer top to look finished.
How to choose
- Opaque fabric that doesn't go see-through when you bend.
- A high, wide waistband that stays put.
- Black first; navy, grey or olive as a second pair.
Common mistakes
- ✕Thin, shiny leggings in daylight.
- ✕Treating them as trousers at work or at a dinner with a dress code.
- ✕A short top that leaves the hips uncovered outside the gym.
Care: Wash cold and inside out, never tumble dry; heat breaks down the stretch.
In a capsule: For an activewear or travel capsule; in an everyday capsule jeans do the job better.
