Retirement-wear is having a moment among the under 35s.
Let’s break down the retirement-wear look. What does it entail?
The retirement-style aficionado ruled out skinny Nineties sunglasses as soon as the revival first surfaced on Instagram in 2017, preferring instead to wear large wrap-around shades – see Scandinavian stylist Sophia Roe – and a tinted Perspex visor. On a day-to-day basis, the ‘retiree’ sports immaculately pressed, white or pastel unisex T-shirts and stretchy ankle-length, straight-leg trousers , revealing a pair of ribbed aerobics socks and New Balance 608 trainers.
According to a report by CapitalOne “retirees have never had it better, with more health, wealth, and time to enjoy life without the constraints of work” – an enviable state of affairs. But could this thinking also apply to millennials? Those born between 1981 and 1996 have a self-motivated entrepreneurial streak that looks to non-traditional lines of employment which, coupled with the rise of self-care culture, has overhauled the formal workwear dress codes that applied to Baby Boomers.
