The Olympic Silk Tracksuit

September has got me feeling all sporty. Fresh off the back of the Olympics in Rio I felt inspired to turn my hand to some sportswear. So here is the result. A black silk bomber jacket with matching tracksuit trousers.

I'll admit the fabric is a little unconventional for sportswear, but silk is always my first choice no matter what I'm doing. It gives this two-piece a luxurious leisure wear feel, that has meant I've barely taken it off since I finished the last stitch. 

Now i finally have something I've made to wear to my yoga and capoeira classes!
