I don’t know about you, but when the cool women on my Insta feed start wearing a new trend, I take notice. Such has been the case over the past two seasons or so. I began to see what is guaranteed to be deemed a controversial combination: Adidas track pants and ballet flats. It took a minute, but the unlikely mix has grown on me—as has the variety of fashion-forward ways stylish women across the globe have been styling the duo.
Track pants themselves have had a major resurgence, and we know that ballet flats are more popular than ever, so getting the look is super easy. Not to mention, it’s simple to pull off with the help of a variety of on-trend tops like polished vests as well as sweaters and outerwear. Keep scrolling to see how eight inspiring women from Paris to NYC (hello, Chloë Sevigny!) style their own Adidas track pants and ballet flats.
