Athleisure has been dominating the fashion industry for the last year, and it was a trend that was expected to continue through this Fashion Week. After day 4 of NYFW, there appears to be as little trace of athleisure as possible in these collections. This season, sophistication has returned in traditional form to the runways, where even the designers that would be expected to do athleisure have turned a new leaf.
