Insider's EditA week in tracksuits with Lorenzo RSV
For rapper Lorenzo RSV, West is best. As a member of the DIY music collective NiNE8, Lorenzo RSV is proudly at the heart of West London hip hop arts, culture and style – of which the tracksuit is an integral piece.
Citing music and fashion inspiration from US collectives like A$AP Mob and Odd Future, Lorenzo RSV approaches the art of getting dressed with an unmistakable London feel. Follow him through a week in style as he updates the humble tracksuit – originally designed in the 1920s as off-duty athletic wear called 'Sunday Suits' – to a Monday-to-Sunday fashion staple with endless variation.
Boss man Mondays
Spruce up a shell with tailored touches
"I enjoy blurring the lines. In this tracksuit you can step out on a casual one or be in a professional setting, and I don't think anyone would look at you sideways. It's not a traditional suit but it's still prim and proper. This is the kind of 'fit that someone like A$AP Rocky might wear to a fashion show. The styling elevates it. I love everything down to the striped shirt with the tie." "I enjoy blurring the lines.

In-the-zone Wednesdays
Wear your artistic heart on your sleeve
"Hip hop has been so integral for me growing up, and will be until the day I die. This orange tracksuit stands out and I feel like it reflects the sonic quality of what I aim to capture while I'm making music, and usually when I wear 'fits, there will be some element of layers of colour. The frames are actually what stands out the most for me. They give that retro, early hip hop vibe.""Hip hop has been so integral for me growing up, and will be until the day I die.

What do I wearto style any tracksuit with confidence
"It's very easy to say that a tracksuit is just a hoodie and sweatpants, and that a going-out outfit is a blazer with suit trousers. But that's so systematic. What I enjoy is having fun with those elements and switching them about like a Rubik's Cube. It's about putting bits and bobs together, and it just comes down to how you want to style it. If you think it looks good, nine times out of ten it probably does look good."
Flexing on Fridays
Dress to be seen in your finest set
"I really rock with this. I'd wear this to any event and I like the baggy feel. I love a boiler suit, and the texture on this tracksuit is sick. What stands out is the red creps (shoes): red elevates and tops it out. I'm not doing too much, but you know I’m here. Then accessories are integral as my finishing touches. I approach accessories like a triangle: grills and bandana up top, then rings, with necklaces at the centre." "I really rock with this. I'd wear this to any event and I like the baggy feel.

Off-duty chill Sundays
Kick back and relax in a plush sweatsuit
"This is the kind of tracksuit I'll rock in the crib. I've been rocking with pink and purple for a while but back in the day there was this idea that men don't wear pink. If it looks good, it looks good regardless. If it fits how I like to fit then I'll wear it, and this type of outfit is something I would definitely wear. It's just cozy, comfy winter vibes.""This is the kind of tracksuit I'll rock in the crib.
