Baseball-Inspired Looks Guaranteed To Knock It Out Of The Park
The line between sports and fashion has never been blurrier. In recent years, cute football and tennis apparel has been in high demand. As such, it was only a matter of time before baseball-inspired looks went mainstream. Something of a slow burn, the trend gained momentum after Zoë Kravitz wore a raglan tee last summer — and now, it’s hitting a fever pitch (no pun intended).
Sure, the newly engaged actor certainly helped put the sporty look back on the map. However, stylist Danielle Cafiero believes the ongoing ‘90s comeback is also fueling the trend. “We’re obviously seeing a massive surge in ‘90s dressing, and along with that comes an updated take on the minimalist high-low uniform that played a major role at the time,” she tells TZR, adding that silhouettes like the baseball raglan tee — a shirt defined by diagonal seams that run from the collar to the underarm, often featuring contrasting sleeves — as well as varsity jackets and rugby polos, are essentially artifacts of the bygone decade.
As for how to style a baseball-inspired look for summer, Cafiero suggests paying close attention to fabric pairings. “The transparency of a sheer skirt or silk short adds a delicate layer that makes a sporty top feel curated,” she notes. “By using a high-impact, low-tension formula, the raglan tee [and other baseball-style tops] acts as the outfit anchor, while the other pieces earn their place through fabric quality and cut.”
