Sportcentric-Contrasting a typically hyper-masculine arena, activewear with an adventurous soft touch, Richard Chai adopts a sporty philosophy for his latest collection. Maintaining a light mood with a clean white and hues of gray, no piece is safe from a makeover. When shirts are not finished with a half-zipper akin to a track jacket, they are cut from sheer fabric. Meanwhile utilitarian jackets play draped shapes against more structured counterparts that even tackle a double-breasted jacket. Mixing in suiting separates for a nice balance, Richard Chai finishes out the season with a well-rounded collection that blurs the line between a fashionable take on activewear and contemporary sportswear.
