LUXE + LE I SURE
And speaking of models, celebrity culture has also played a significant role in the rise of athleisure. High-profile figures such as Kendall Jenner, Hailey Bieber, and Gigi Hadid have been spotted frequently in athleisure ensembles, often accessorized with high-end jewelry and designer handbags. Their influence has helped normalize and popularize the trend, making it aspirational for the general public. Social media platforms including Instagram and TikTok have amplified this trend, bringing seemingly endless athleisure-inspired outfits and styling tips to the masses.
Jewelry plays a crucial role in elevating athleisure from merely casual to undeniably chic. Simple yet sophisticated pieces, like minimalist gold necklaces, hoop earrings, and stackable rings, complement the clean lines and neutral tones often found in athleisure outfits. Statement jewelry can also add a touch of glamour to an otherwise understated look. Brands have recognized this synergy, designing jewelry collections that play well with the pared-back athleisure aesthetic.
