Love Sporty Style? It’s Time To Embrace The Rugby Shirt

This fall, rugby shirts are everywhere. From oversized styles to adorable cropped versions, women are embracing this fun trend that combines elements of preppy Americana and blokette style. The good news is, this sporty cool-girl aesthetic is simple to incorporate into any wardrobe and it mixes well with pieces you probably already have in your closet. Here are some of our favorite rugby shirts and how to style them.

 

Bold Colors

Go bold or go home! The opposite of quiet luxury, bold blocks of color will take your fall outfits to a whole new level. Look for bright hues and try mixing with washed denim and matching suede sneakers. If you’re feeling more adventurous, we are seeing fashion girlies taking it up a notch and mixing this sporty style in very unexpected ways like mixing patterns and metallic colors. The bottom line is, don't be afraid to experiment and have fun with your bold rugby shirts!

Vintage Rugby Shirts

This is not the first time rugby shirts are having a moment in mainstream fashion, and scoring a vintage shirt can make for a winning look. Vintage stores all over the world are stocked with great finds, as well as some of these we found online. Styling your vintage rugby shirts with baggy jeans and sneakers is a 90’s look that will never get old.

Oversized Rugby Shirts

The bigger the better! Oversized rugby shirts are fun and comfortable and can be worn in a variety of ways. Think denim, jorts, skirts or even worn on their own as a dress. Don’t know where to start? Try pairing an oversized rugby shirt with jorts and knee-high boots for a sporty chic fit. Or wear it on its own with loafers and high socks for a different vibe.

Cropped Styles

For a modern twist, look for fitted cropped rugbys that can be worn on their own or layered over a long-sleeve shirt, with a pleated skirt, layered over a button-down or under a sweater vest. Layering cropped rugby shirts adds dimension to your outfits and doesn’t feel as overwhelming as an oversized one.

The Men’s Department

Some of our favorite rugby shirts of the season can be found in the men’s department.  From classic brands like Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger and newer labels like cult favorite Rowing Blazers, the men’s department is a great place to score big, especially if you are looking for an oversized rugby.
