In 1982 Olivia Newton John told us, “let’s get physical”. And although the 1980s fashion stimulation has been and gone, Olivia’s words will still ring true among 2010’s fashion trends. No, we’re not chitchat vigour induced sweat stains, neon lycras, or hideous headbands. In its place sportswear becomes streetwear in Spring 2010 – in all its sexy, svelte, and easy splendour.

Alexander Wang’s matchless cool factor puts him at the fore of this trend. The young, fresh construal he sent down the runway for Spring 2010 means we’ll all be looking to American football for an booster of youthful tomboy cool into our wardrobes come Spring. But while football is key, it’s not the only sportswear stimulation: we’ll also be looking to sports like baseball & hockey, tennis, scuba-diving, and dance.

Sports trend: the looks
The potential for 2010’s sportswear fashion trend are many – but it’s also easy to go off beam. Thus, we’ve singled out four key looks for how to wear this trend in 2010: the tomboy, the sporty flapper, the urban dancer, and the Bond bombshell.

The tomboy
She’s the pretty girl at school with the rough-and-tumble approach, the one who’s supremely oblivious of her own gorgeousness; the one that kicks the ball with the boys insensible to their crushes. Alexander Wang epitomised this look with his Spring 2010 anthology: youthful, inconceivably cool, and eventually sexy. The cool aspect is engineered by way of cropped tops, pants low slung to expose the waistband of an under-layer; leather cross-lacing, jersey fabrics, football-style shoulders. Woven into the effortless tomboy look are super-feminine rudiments like sheer fabrics and high heeled shoes, placing the look steadily in 2010.

Along with American football – which was also an muse behind Alexandre Herchcovitch’s Spring 2010 assortment – you can also take your fashionable sportswear motivation from other tomboyish sports like hockey, baseball, rugby league, and soccer.
