Office Olympics: Officewear Meets Sporty Energy
Office Olympics brings the codes of the professional wardrobe into dialogue with the visual language of sport. The result is a characteristically Baum und Pferdgarten tension: polished structure against relaxed proportions, corporate references interrupted by graphic details, and feminine accents set beside athletic cues. Rather than treating workwear and sportswear as separate uniforms, the collection lets them inform one another through a considered mix of dresses, tailoring, shirts, knitwear and denim.
The collection draws on the atmosphere of a moment when sport moved beyond the pitch and into everyday routines. Stripes, football-inspired references and logo details give familiar wardrobe forms a direct, energetic edge. They sit alongside checks, leopard-inspired patterns and painterly patch motifs, creating a graphic vocabulary that feels purposeful rather than decorative. Each contrast contributes to a wardrobe built around individual combinations.
Smart Separates with a Relaxed Rhythm
Tailored jackets, shirts, blouses, skirts and tailored trousers establish the sharper side of Office Olympics. Straight shapes, structured shoulders, classic collars and clean closures nod to officewear, while wider cuts, cropped proportions and softer drape prevent the look from becoming overly formal. These are smart separates designed to be rearranged: a blazer can sharpen denim, while a crisp shirt brings definition to a more relaxed silhouette.
Sport-inflected tops and polo-inspired styles introduce a different pace. Crew necks, V-necks, contrast details and stripe motifs reference teamwear and jersey dressing without losing the collection’s refined direction. Pair a graphic top with a skirt or tailored separate for a deliberate contrast, or use it beneath a jacket to bring an unexpected note to a more composed outfit. The focus is on the meeting point between ease and precision.
Dresses, Skirts and Graphic Contrast
Dresses move between mini, midi and longer silhouettes, from shirt-inspired forms and A-line shapes to slip-led and fitted styles. Ruching, ruffles, bows, sheer finishes and sequined surfaces introduce a more expressive counterpoint to the collection’s utility and tailoring references. Explore women's dresses for further silhouettes that continue this interplay of structure, movement and print.
Skirts offer another way to work with proportion. A defined waist, a fluid line or a sportier fabric can shift the character of a look when paired with a fitted blouse, an oversized T-shirt or a tailored layer. Checks and stripes bring order, while animal-inspired and painted motifs disrupt it. This balance of graphic clarity and playful irregularity is central to Office Olympics.
Denim, Knitwear and Statement Layers
Denim appears across jeans, jackets and dress-led pieces, grounding the collection with contrast stitching, patch-pocket references and varied leg shapes. It can be worn as a coordinated statement or broken up with a light shirt, a printed blouse or a more formal jacket. The effect is practical in appearance but never purely utilitarian: familiar denim codes are treated as part of a broader, mixed wardrobe.
Cardigans and sweaters add texture through ribbing, crew and V-necklines, stripes and embellished details. Layering knitwear can soften the line of tailoring, frame a dress, or add depth to denim and skirts. Bags complete the collection’s contrast-led approach, moving from understated finishing pieces to more playful, sculptural expressions. Browse women's accessories to extend the look with considered finishing details.
