Victoria Beckham may have been exaggerating a bit when she said the airport is your runway, but she’s not too far off. While we all want to be comfortable while sitting on a plane for several hours, you should never give up style for comfort. The perfect airplane dress code should be equal parts practical and stylish. Everyone hates packing, but picking out what to wear on the plane may be even harder. Be ready for every situation and travel in style with these simple tips. Follow our dos and don’ts to ensure your frequent flyer look is always effortless yet polished.
DOs
- Break out the most-hyped sneakers you own
- Travel with practical but stylish luggage
- Bring a portable charger to ensure you can binge on Game of Thrones for the entirety of the flight
- Wear sporty separates like street style sweatpants
- Layer over layer – you can’t go wrong with a loose fitting tee, sweatshirt, and maxi coat (airplanes have their own microclimates and there’s nothing worse than being cold for 10 hours straight)
- Finish off your look with a baseball cap
- Go monochrome
DON’Ts
- Wear high heels
- Absolutely no flip flops, ever
- Confine yourself to jeans (they’re rigid and unforgiving. If you must, go for a pair with tons of stretch)
- Forget about accessories! There is nothing worse than leaving the house without sunglasses
- Wear too much jewelry – it’s only going to get in the way
- Bring a heavy carry-on
- Forget your identification!
