front. The windbreaker category and rainwear is up-trending
in outerwear. A color palette consisting of shades of blue is
key, mixing with linen white and khaki. Whitened bright colors

SPORTY DIVERSION
sporty silhouettes for the consumer who focuses on an
active lifestyle, even while on vacation. This is a sports

is also a colorful, sporty look highlighted by bold color.

fuller appearance emerges. Sporty stripes and color block
patterns are key elements.
