Black rules, either tonal or matched to orange, yellow and electric blue. In soft cotton jersey, blazers ooze leisure chic thanks to a mix of ribbed, padded, piped and perforated insets, details that also jazz up Plein’s signature leather jackets and bomber styles.

Athleisure pants peek out from Bermuda shorts, quilted nylon is layered under butter-soft leather while printed mesh tank tops over shorts display the perfect off-court attitude.

Accessorized with rich leather high-top sneakers and backpacks, each standalone piece earns major style points.
