We have, more or less, gotten used to the new ways of life that the lockdown has brought upon us. New schedules, social distancing and staying indoors at great lengths have also had a prolonged impact on our collective wardrobes, with some ensembles taking the forefront in terms of fashion. Considering how the phenomenon has been the same for everyone, we decided to take a look at the closet staples that have taken center stage. Continue reading to know more.
Wardrobe Staples During The Lockdown
Scroll down to take a look at the wardrobe essentials that have worked perfectly during the lockdown.
Pyjamas
There is no denying the appeal of the fuss-free, relaxed separate that we have been reaching out for in these past couple of months. We are talking, of course, about pyjamas! A lockdown staple like none other, these have been a part of our daily OOTD, a reliable pick even for those meetings that require a formal waist-up appearance!
T-shirts
A great separate to pair with the aforementioned pyjamas, tees are the most versatile of options in our wardrobes, which is why it’s not surprising that they have been a constant go-to. From last-minute grocery runs to staying comfortable yet stylish indoors, T-shirts are going to be in for a long time coming.
Oversized Shirts
If you’ve worn an oversized shirt at home during the lockdown, you will know why we prefer it so much. Effortlessly stylish, easy to carry and oh-so-comfortable, this is what we could wear for days on end!
Athleisure
Much like track pants, leggings are no longer restricted to running or exercising, the lockdown having granted the entire athleisure category an opportunity to serve as the at-home wardrobe option. Whether you are looking for something to throw on for a walk or for a WFH outfit, athleisure is tough to avoid, and we will vouch for it.
Breezy Dresses
Feeling the lockdown blues? Wearing something fun and outdoorsy is bound to uplift your spirits. Us? We like the breezy dresses and the many styling options that they present, something you might want to partake in.
Kaftans
Thanks to Kareena Kapoor Khan’s ongoing love for the ensemble, kaftans need little to no introduction. Carefree and with enough room for experimenting, a couple of these will work wonders for your lockdown closet. They have done the part for us!
Hoops
Meetings, online classes and virtual hangouts are going to be a thing for a long time and one accessory that made the difference for us were hoops. An instant pick-me-up, the earrings can be teamed with just about any outfit while being the highlight of your Zoom call.
Masks
Of course, there is no forgetting the protective gear that one can’t (and shouldn’t) step out without. A mandatory accessory for your own safety as well as that of others, face masks are a defining must-have of these times.
We sure can’t imagine the extended lockdown without these outfits and accessories, how about you?
