50 URBAN GOLF LOOK

by Dafne Funeck

Amid traditional nuances and age-old patterns, golf, and its intrinsically classic nature, narrates a stylistic superiority that no other sport possesses, defined in a range of absolutely essential items.

Fashion has always drawn nourishment and inspiration from the world of this sport, while holding fast to its roots. Born in Scotland, the nation that gave us tartan, golf continues to exercise an unparalleled fascination for designers and fashion, to the point of influencing the shapes and volumes of this autumn season toward timeless classicism.

Natural shades, like beige and ecru’, meet the posher shades of blue, bottle green, burgundy red, coffee browns, mustard and cobalt. With a few eclectic touches: the principal guideline is that of effortless formality encapsulated in clothing and accessories. The polyhedral embrace of shapes and colours apparently in antithesis give this look a certain fascination, but always discrete, without excess.

This way, the stylistic proposals are able to infuse sobriety, for both men and women, and never interfere with the game on the course.

Pants and pullovers go for softer cuts, choosing a new-found, renewed moderation season after season, summarised in items perfect for the green (and elsewhere...) between one hole and the next, while outwear goes sleeveless in padded items capable of highlighting juxtapositions where the preciousness of the materials becomes ambassador of an ever-contemporary aplomb. For the feet, comfortable flat shoes, like suede sneakers in shades of beige. The must-have accessory? A checked tie as a tribute to the centuries-old tradition of a refined, nostalgic sport. A lesson in elegance, to bring to fruition right after the holidays
