Designer Alessandro Michel of [Gucci](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gucci-pet-collection) released a new luxurious tracksuit that is covered in crystals. Known for breaking the rules of fashion, the luxury brand has turned a basic everyday tracksuit into a runway-ready outfit.

This sophisticated set is being sold individually, with the shirt priced at $3,700 and the pants at $3,980. Both articles are constructed in Italy and are made out of soft viscose, polyester and [iridescent multi-colored crystals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oakley-x-swarovski). The top features ribbed cuffs and a round neckline and the pants have a cropped wide-leg silhouette.

The idea behind this outfit is to mix comfort with over the top luxury, creating an effortless yet stylish look for any occasion.
This new luxurious tracksuit can be worn together as a set, or separately to give any outfit a high-fashion look.
