STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: #healthgoth

September 25th, 2015 at 2:00am

This Fashionista exudes just what the dark fitness movement is all about. With a head to toe all black outfit matched with subtly white details highlighting fitness brands we all know and love, she paired these items with a ying-yang choker and large sunglasses. And somehow the aesthetic shifts from the very familiar gym culture to an abnormal subculture combined with trendy ’90s revival.

The #healthgoth movement has created a futuristic element to everyday sportswear. There has never been a better time to bring back the adidas track suit and our Fashionista did that right on trend pairing it with the matching adidas slide-on shoes.

I can’t stress enough how important black is to this fashion trend. And what makes this look even better is how versatile it is; both Fashionistas and Fashionistos can adapt this style of clothing. It is not only chic but also extremely comfortable. #healthgoth has made it cool to go out in sweatpants and gym shoes.

This subculture has very recently been making its way to the mainstream, which was seen with the Alexander Wang line for H&M last year. The line was made up entirely of dark workout gear.

By simply searching the hashtag on any social media platform or even Google, the tag will bring up a plethora of inspiring #healthgoth followers. The whole idea of the movement was so the fashion inclined wouldn’t have to give up their edge when hitting the gym.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “Even though I may only be wearing athletic wear, my style is still very chic simply because its entirely comprised of black.”
