The Challenge

Create coordinated family athletic wear for a community parade — pieces that perform in summer heat while representing neighborhood pride.

Inspiration

Aspinwall's Memorial Day parade tradition combined with performance sportswear aesthetics. The goal was athletic wear that felt purposeful, not costume-like.

Design Development

Started with fabric research focused on moisture-wicking mesh and breathable cotton jersey. The stripe detailing was developed to work across adult tops and children's dresses while maintaining visual cohesion.

Construction

Adult tops feature mesh panel inserts for ventilation. Children's dresses use an A-line silhouette with built-in shorts for active movement. Custom Aspinwall branding applied via heat transfer.
