A shared appreciation for the subtle elegance that a well-kept pair of white sneakers can bring to your wardrobe is one that’s really manifested in more recent years. The notion that trainers are only really appropriate for lazy sunday outfit ensembles, suited more for a melancholy stroll to the corner shop than anything else, is a notion that forward-thinking fashion connoisseurs are beginning to abandon. From runway shows, to celebrity red carpets, the increasingly versatile white trainer continues to increase its profile in the fashion universe.

Following a hugely successful FW17 menswear campaign, Demna Gvasalia kickstarts Balenciaga’s Spring/Summer 18 season with a limited capsule collection.

When arranged with care and an eye for detail, your summer wardrobe can easily be the most accessible and stylish of all your seasonal wardrobes. While every component of a modern summer outfit deserves an equal share of the limelight, we want to place a special focus on a piece of the puzzle that perhaps doesn’t always receive the plaudits it deserves. The ZOOFASHIONS.COM style team has handpicked a selection of some of our favourite shorts from the season, featuring a varied assortment of fabrics, colourways and graphic designs.

Coming in a vast array of styles, shapes and colours, a compelling argument can be made that the backpack is the number one accessory of choice in the contemporary wardrobe.
