Will dare, will not dare? To us, you can tell… Since the big comeback of cycling shorts on the catwalks and the buttocks of sexy stars like Kendall Jenner , Hailey Baldwin , Bella Hadid or Kim Kardashian , you have secretly dreamed of being able to take it on the streets. It must be said that this hybrid garment halfway between hiking Bermuda shorts and the best climber's leggings never leaves you indifferent.
True star of the eighties ( Lady Diana had it in all colors, it is to say), this stylistic UFO swept over the fashionsherere like a raging peloton. It must be said that the most desirable houses have made it their new fad: Dolce & Gabbana , Dior , Mugler , Fendi , Off-White , Jacquemus , Roberto Cavalli , Prada … Shall we continue?
Unless you call yourself Emily Ratajkowski and enjoy showing off your ass, you will (please) avoid putting it together with a cropped top above the belly button. In addition, hello the traces of tan. In short, the cyclist , impossible to wear? Taking inspiration from five stylish influencers, discover the only ways you can wear it with panache, without looking like a cagole.
We're blurring the lines like Kendall Jenner
Everything here is based on a vast illusion. We believe that Kendall is going for a hike in her trucker sweater straight out of the 1990s. Except that… Clever, sister Jenner draws a little Prada branded bag and bi-material sock boots with a stiletto heel to throw the rest of the way .
The alternative ? Dare more by choosing really pop accessories in spring hues.
We embroider it with a branded piece like Thora Valdimars
Since you can find it for three francs six sous at Decath ', you might as well compensate on a wahou coin which will give it credit. A Burberry tartan jacket , pumps or a big Prada headband , a Dior logo bag … It's time to invest.
The alternative ? Bet on a branded cyclist ultra recognizable as the over bling Versace with its mythical golden rosettes.
We play layering like Kim Kardashian
The key to keeping the cyclist discreet? Set up a set of textures, while staying in the same shades. For safety, we put on black with lycra mixed with silk , cotton , wool or muslin . Think silly: push the colorimetry to the smallest accessory.
The alternative ? The total white look , for the daring. Always with a mix and match of beautiful materials and lengths.
We associate it with an oversize jacket like Olja Ryzevski
We bet the cyclist can match your love basics perfectly? Paired with a plain or checked oversized jacket , badass glasses and a pair of colorful sneakers , the case is close at hand. The nice idea: to stitch the jacket of your dad or her boyfriend for exaggerated shoulders and a devilishly pointed look.
The alternatives ? The vest mohair blanket mid-thigh length and fine slingbacks feet.
We mix it with very long like Pernille Teisbaek
The influencer and model inspires us. If she has no small bottle or strong thigh to stash (her), we pique the idea of slipping it under a very long sweater , with a wide tank top, a big golden collar and pumps. Moccasins accepted.
The alternative ? Put on a heavy and very long trench coat or a light raincoat that reaches mid-calf.
