The power pair: A blazer + cycling shorts

L-R: Anina Heé, Emily Ratajkowski, Christine Centenera

Arguably this season’s most unlikely match, fashion’s forward-thinkers are taking hi/lo dressing to another level and pairing their power blazers with cycling shorts. In theory, this ’80s-athleisure mash-up shouldn’t work, but seeing is believing, and this is one strong look. Eager to try it? It’s all about balance – the blazer has to be oversized in order to offset those sporty, second-skin shorts, and the boxier the cut, the better. Color? Keep it monochrome. Accessories? Matrix-style sunglasses and architectural mules are ideal.
