Matching Sets

Introduction

Before 2021, matching sets such as loungewear and pajamas used to be home-wears only. However, in 2021, matching sets are becoming prevalent in (granted, still small) social settings.

In part, driven by those who can work from home, comfort is critical despite getting dressed each day. For 2021, there are two ways to embrace the coordinated look: celebratory skirt and top combo and non-fussy sweater sets.

Also spotted at Jacquemus, clever cut-outs have already been marked as a top trend for the season. But, there was also no shortage of vibrant colour, notably Proenza Schouler’s mint green ribbed knit matching set with the buttons left undone just enough to give it the party stamp of approval.

Judging by the ruched skirts with matching bralettes at PriscaVera and the slime green corsets and miniskirts at LaQuan Smith, one motif rang true after viewing the season’s assortment: if you need a new going-out look, make it a matching set.
