Trouser-Legging Hybrid

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Treggings

— September 24, 2007 — Unique
Leggings hung around a lot longer than most fashionistas expected. We loved the look but it just seemed too retro for long-term appeal. It seems that fashion designers have declared the time to retire your sheer footless tights. But not without a replacement! Make room in your drawers from "treggings," the trouser-legging hybrid.

"Our sources in London report that while thin leggings are officially over, the "tregging"—a more robust, thicker fabric version of the beloved original, like a pair of trousers crossed with leggings—is working its way into the most stylish fall wardrobes (think Kate Moss, in her PVC pair, and Mary-Kate Olsen, who developed a black and gray leather pair for The Row, the line she designs with her sister)," Style.com fills us in. "Treggings are snag-resistant and versatile enough to go with everything from vintage tees to bustiers (again, see Moss and Olsen for visual tips)."

At this point, hardly a visual is available, but imagine a pair of ultra-tight, stretchy, soft-material skinny jeans.
Trend Themes
1. Retiring Sheer Footless Tights - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing durable and versatile treggings made from robust, thicker fabrics as a replacement for sheer footless tights.

3. Snag-resistant Treggings - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Designing snag-resistant treggings that can be paired with various clothing items, from vintage tees to bustiers.
Industry Implications

2. Apparel Manufacturing - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Manufacturers can explore the production of durable and stretchy treggings using robust, thicker fabric materials.
3. Online Retail - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Online retailers can tap into the demand for treggings by offering a wide variety of styles, colors, and sizes to cater to different customer preferences.
