Tips for Twinning in style-Fashion
With their matching bomber jackets, full-length black leggings and co-ordinating handbags, shoppers in Los Angeles might have thought they were seeing double when crossing models-of-the-moment Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner as they popped into Barneys in West Hollywood yesterday.
Were their matchy-matchy ensembles a genuine coincidence, or had they both pulled on the latest delivery of freebies to have arrived at their door only to realise that they were the recipients of some very similar gifting? After all, both their nylon jackets hailed from Alpha Industries (admittedly Kendall’s was from her brother-in-law Kanye West’s Yeezus tour), and both toted black handbags by Yves Saint Laurent (Hadid’s is the quilted Monogram, while Jenner’s has a tassel and a pom-pom).
It could just be that the off-duty models have taken to sporting the same ‘ath-leisure uniform’, one which is comfortable and enables you to work out at the drop of a hat (if that's your thing), but is elevated with a dash of a designer logo. And they’re not the only ones, as these Twinning champions prove. If you want to take on the Twinning trend and win, there’s a few key principles to bear in mind:
Be the same, but different
The idea isn’t too look like identically-dressed twin five-year-olds - the difference lies in the details. A shared motif worn in a slightly varying way looks calculated as opposed to accidental.
Always twin with someone similar in stature
We always have that taller, thinner friend who we’re slightly enviable of, so note to self: she is not the one to go twinning with. The reason why those street style twins are so easy on the eye is because they really could pass for sisters – in all senses of the meaning.
Wearing contrasting colours is a great way to confuse people
Paris and Nicky Hilton are having the last laugh here, because they’re probably commanding a nice fee to wear a designer’s outfits, without looking exactly the same. Try turning up to a party in co-ordination with a friend and seeing how many people notice- it could really throw your host.
If you’re twinning by accident, smile - and style it out
If it turns out that half of those shopping at Topshop/ Zara/ & Other Stories fell for the same print as you, hold your head up high and let your individuality shine through. Hopefully you will have styled item in a totally maverick manner, meaning you won’t look like your neighbour’s mirror image.
