Since Normcore and minimalist fashions continue to reign in the street style sphere, it's no surprise that understated sportswear is not fading from the mainstream. The Ones 2 Watch 'All That' editorial spotlights athletic-themed clothes that are modeled by LONDON MGT face Caitlin.

Photographer Sophia Kahlenberg captures the series that promotes effortlessly cool and comfortable wardrobe staples. Styling for All That is courtesy of Lauren Dietze who collaborates with beauty artist Clair Leighton. While Dietze opts for layered t-shirts, tanks and track pants from labels like [adidas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zne-collection), [Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nike-x-martine-rose-campaign) and Topshop, Leighton opts for an understated beauty routine of straight tresses and natural cosmetics.
