The way we dress is generally determined by how we live and work. As COVID-19 alters day-to-day life for millions, we think it may leave its mark on fashion trends, and what we choose to wear. Stylist Louise Hilsz shares comfort and style - our new favourite trend right now.
VELOUR
The velour tracksuit is back and was trending way before this dreadful virus disrupted our lives.
It’s smooth, it’ plush and it’s the right amount of chic to covet when just like us the world working from home.

CASHMERE
The biggest shifts in fashion have historically not come from runway trends but followed world events, just like the one we are living through right now. When it comes to lasting luxury, cashmere is a sensible, satisfying choice - it also happens to be the perfect way to lift your style mood from the comfort of your couch.
Helen Cherry Lily Cashmere sweater, $379. Elle + Riley Gen Cashmere track pant, $529. Sills + Co Cashmere socks, $59. Dark Hampton The Maxwell scarf, $109.
Pyjamas
We’re PJ fans, and right now, the temptation to stay in a pair all day long is strong. And as far as Hilsz goes it’s all okay; the pyjama suit has been trending on the runways across the globe for a couple of seasons now - so I guess it’s the perfect time to embrace this look as your cosiest staple.
LUXE SLIPPER
We're calling it: You can expect the sales of slippers to flourish, and not just as the ultimate stay-at-home shoe purely for comfort, and warmth, they are also this season's must-have style.
