6 Essential Loungewear Pieces All Men Should Own
If you’ve been paying any attention whatsoever to men’s fashion in recent years, you will have undoubtedly noticed that things have been getting a lot more laid-back. Neat-fitting joggers are now as viable an option for the everyday as tailored trousers, and the hoodie is no longer reserved solely for hangovers and schlepping to the shops in search of milk.
This new age of menswear has opened up an entirely new way of dressing; a way of dressing that allows day-to-day and downtime wardrobes to become intertwined, and to excellent effect.
Les Girls Les Boys may not be a name you’re immediately familiar with, but as the shift toward slouchy style gathers pace, we guarantee it won’t be long until you’re well acquainted.
The British label founded by Serena Rees – the brains behind world-renowned lingerie firm Agent Provocateur – is pioneering ‘bed-to-street’ fashion. And although it may be a while before we can actually endorse heading straight out the door from the sheets, the brand has achieved in creating a range of high-end, modern intimates and unisex loungewear that can look good in both settings.
The collection features all the modular building blocks required of a contemporary wardrobe, including premium joggers, hoodies, boxers and socks to simultaneously raise your smart-casual and stay-at-home style game.
To help you get a better feel for what the brand is all about, here are six of our favourite pieces for the months ahead.
The Hoodie
It wasn’t long ago that the hoodie had somewhat of an unwanted reputation. But now, thanks in no small part to the relaxing of men’s style, it’s nothing short of a wardrobe essential.
Les Girls Les Boys offers several of its own understated takes on this modern classic. With subtle branding and boxy, oversized fits, these are the perfect hoodies to wear for everything from sitting on the couch to grabbing a cold one.
