A Casual Way to Dress Bold

H&M Studio Collection The Refined Rebel AW 2020

Everyone seems to be dressing down these days. Whether we're going to work, staying home, or just out and about running errands, during these challenging times of the Covid-19 pandemic, it seems that our natural tendency is to default to wearing workout clothes, leggings, sweats and other forms of athleisure wear. Obviously, many of us realize that it's time to re-prioritize our values, even when it comes to fashion. Taking care of our "essential needs" has become synonymous with the need to dress more casually.

In this global crisis, we realize that dressing casually is convenient. When we're not worried about what we're going to wear we can devote more time to the most important issues that directly impact our lives.

But even in these unpredictable times, many of us still want feel-good fashion pieces that are more stylish. Although we're prioritizing the need for comfort to support our new lifestyles, and new budgets, along with our ever-changing moods, this doesn't necessarily mean we have to fill our closets with leggings and sweats.

Fortunately, for those of us who are intent on resisting the impulse to wear workout clothes and other athleisure wear day after day, H&M has launched a new autumn winter collection. This new collection offers more stylish ideas for how to dress casually and express ourselves, as we attempt to re-create a new rhythm in our lives that supports our own particular brand of the 'new normal' lifestyle.  

Inspired by those with a sense of style that’s as daring as their attitudes, the H&M AW20 collection is themed, “The Refined Rebel.” The exclusive limited-edition collection is described as having notes of 70s rock, disco and punk, offering an interchangeable mix of party-anywhere pieces with tailored separates.
