A designer best known for evening dresses
and bridalwear, Emilia Wickstead is casting off her feminine virtues in favour
of athletic garb. This year, the London Fashion
Week favourite has collaborated with Bodyism – a high-end health and fitness
brand – to create a 13-piece range of activewear that includes leggings, sports
bras, jackets, hoodies, jumpers, jumpsuits and even a yoga mat.
And while Bodyism founder
James Duigan tackled the technical side of things, the style is where
Wickstead’s name as a designer really comes into play. Aside from being functional, the collection
gives sporty pieces a feminine edge, with her trademark florals and a colour
scheme of dusty pink and royal blue.
