Poll: Juicy Couture Sweatsuits to Travel in?

FashionPrincess · Hermes

I think they are fine if they don't have juicy all over the butt and such. Also, I'd pair them with something other than a hoodie, like a sweater or cute tees and then some flats.

i think you are right. the whole get up seems too much to me but when i see celebs pair their sweatsuits as seperates, they look pretty cute.
Xtina does that a lot. I'll see her wear the pants but with regular ol tees. She looks cute!

With a 14 hour flight, I think comfort should be a top priority. A juicy sweatsuit is relatively put together and is comfortable.

I'm going to the Middle East and will be traveling for close to 24 hours next week and plan on wearing something similar.

Bastet · Kate Spade

I wear mine on long flights all the time. I agree w/ FP about not having Juicy all over the butt, so mine's plain brown. I wear it w/ pumas and socks (so I don't have to go barefoot through security). I think it looks cute, and it's comfier than jeans on a long flight. Hubby, on the other hand, calls it my "old lady jogging suit" and is embarassed by it! *snicker*

long travel is uncomfortable so i do wear my juicy velour suit or puma track suits quite often. Comfort is #1. Also, I get cold all the time on planes so I wear socks & my uggs (another "trend" that's out but what heck do i care?). ITA though - no big logos on the butt. neutrals are good.

luckylily · Gucci

I voted nay. Personally, I'd feel like I was wearing pajamas.

Lilykind · Hermes

Yeah, I'd definitely travel in it. Comfort is definitely priority. However, I think there are lots of other options for loungewear besides Juicy tracksuits.

Last time I was on a plane, I wore yoga pants, a cozy cashmere sweater, and ballet flats. I still felt pretty pulled together but was comfy the whole time.

Alot of people give them a bad wrap but I like them, especially for lounging or travel. They're much more comfortable than a pair of jeans for 14 hours... I would get a neutral color suit and pair with some cute flats.

Suasoria · Chanel

I miss the days when people dressed up to get on an airplane. I'm not a believer in wearing knit pants of any sort in public, but it's hard to be critical when we're talking about a flight that's that long. I would tend to side with Lilykind, though - comfy doesn't have to be sloppy or look like pajamas.

And I'd love to go to Greece, even if everyone there was wearing sweats all the time!

kittenheels · Coach

That's a really long flight! I think Juicy track pants, ballet flats, a comfy long tee and a sweater would be perfect. I tend to prefer dark colors in the suit, but I think you should wear whatever you like! I would love to go to Greece!

Drew · Gucci

I voted nay. I think wearing sweats in public, especially when travelling is just too underdressed. Cotton pants can be just as comfy, and pulled together. If you get something with a tiny bit of lycra, it will not wrinkle and will move even more with your body. Have you considered wearing pants on the plane and then changing into a sweatsuit? I prefer changing in-flight than schleping around in lounge clothes, but that may just be my preference.

Most important thing is to be comfy and have fun, and I'm sure you'll have no problem looking good doing it.

Maat · Kenneth Cole

Planes seem to get more and more uncomfortable and Greece is a long flight so I would mix comfort with stye. Yoga pants are good, or even the Juicy pants (but not paired with the top), with a good quality t-shirt. As long as your hair and make-up are done and the clothing fits, nobody's going to think you are a slob.

Claudia · Gucci

I think that if you are going for comfort why not. Who cares what other people might think.
