Finally booked that flight and raring to go? Traveling is picking up again and when it comes to dressing for airline travel—as with post-Covid fashion—comfort is still the name of the game, but that doesn’t mean you need to sacrifice style.
Whether you’re going on a short getaway or long vacation—well, you don’t necessarily need to get on a plane to wear them—check out these chic travel ‘fits for some fashion inspiration.
Use colours to show how happy you are to travel — finally! Zoe Tay reached for bright tights, socks and shoes to add a huge dollop of cheer to her long haul flight-ready getup.
Airport fashion is all about comfort, so forget about anything that’s overly tight and switch to roomier options like the wide-legged cargo pants on Julie Tan. Walking through the transit area will be effortless!
The classic T-shirt and jeans pairing never gets old. Jean Danker swapped the regular tee for a white cropped top, pairing it with skinny jeans for a fresh and youthful look.
Equally comfortable and chic? A white shirt and denim shorts combination as shown on Jeanette Aw above. Pair it with a bold-coloured crossbody bag to stand out at the check-in counter.
With fluctuating airport and plane temps, you’ll want to arm yourself with a cardigan. Spice up your outfit with prints such as the argyle design on Iman Fandi.
Instead of wearing multiple layers, take Chantalle Ng‘s style cue by wearing a cropped hoodie as a top. Team it with a pair of jeans to complete the relaxed look.
To avoid risking a sloppy airport look, you can always count on a slim blazer. Arissa Cheo styled her black top, denim shorts and slides with a structured blazer that elevated her cool girl look.
Not only are jumpsuits a breeze to style (choose a single-tone design like Tay Ying), they’re also easy to wear. Pick one with pockets — they will come in handy especially when you’re travelling and clearing customs.
Not a fan of complicated dressing? We got you. Follow Felicia Chin‘s footsteps and slip into a breezy and billowy dress that will keep you comfy and chic.
Prefer light and breathable layers? Consider Jamie Yeo‘s colourful combo above, featuring a batik print kimono, yellow sleeveless top and ripped jeans.
Sprinkle some fun to your airport look by adding small details such as iron-on patches. Jade Seah‘s skinny jeans feature a Chupa Chups design on the front that makes her look extra adorable.
The easiest way to make joggers look polished? Tuck in your top and throw on a blazer. Comfy slides optional.
An oversized sweater and shorts are the perfect combo for a casual, comfy ‘fit. Pair yours with boots or sneakers.
Keep it fresh yet cosy and add some visual interest by layering and accessorising.
The jumpsuit makes getting ready so much easier. It’s easy, effortless and comfortable.
Heading somewhere warm? A silky co-ord with vibrant prints has got you covered.
Cargo pants are back in a big way. Style yours with a comfy tee and vest and you’re good to go.
The wrap dress is always a good idea. The breezy number will take you from the airport to local haunts.
