Neoprene jacket

OUTFIT,STYLE

Because, feeling like Hulk.

Neoprene is a technical fabric that is commonly found in wet suits and home accessories such as laptop sleeves and tablet holders. It has become the go-to fabric for many designers such as Neil Barrett and Alexander Wang over the last few seasons and while it is on trend, it remains an almost exclusive material that appears only in high fashion.

Neoprene is used in jackets and tops and because of its firm texture, it gives wearers a structured silhouette that is often exaggerated. It is this embellished proportion that leaves a disfavour for regular consumers who have yet to appreciate the structured material and thus resulting in a lack of understanding on how to style it.

The important factor is neoprene has a sporty feel so when you put on a neoprene jacket next time, try

1) wearing sneakers (to accentuate the casual, sport-luxe style)

2) pairing it with a button-up shirt (to juxtapose a dapper look)

3) accessorising with a pair of sport sunglasses (they make everyone look good so even if you fail with neoprene, you will still redeem yourself)
