6 Editor-Approved Airport Outfits That'll Double Your Chances of an Upgrade

One of the most popular things we cover here atBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing is airport style. Pictures of what Gigi Hadid, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Rihanna, Kendall Jenner and more wear to terminals across the world are always just as loved as any fashion week street style pictures. It is, therefore, (unofficially) within our job descriptions to look at endless pictures of airport style, so you can bet we WWW editors have our own long-haul uniforms down.

Here, several of our editors have broken down what they always wear to travel and divulge their tips on staying comfortable and looking stylish at 39,000 feet. Our personal styles couldn't be more different on a day-to-day basis, but when it comes to travelling, we all have similar tactics for formulating airport outfits. Each editor sticks to neutral palettes to make layering even easier, and every single one of them travels in a pair of flat shoes—some even opt for the very same trainer brand. Scroll below to see what six of our editors wear when travelling.

Hannah Almassi, Editor in Chief

"When I travel I like to prioritise a long cardigan or big shawl—something I can wrap myself up in on the plane (I always feel the cold) that's also packable and resists creasing so I can bundle it up into a big basket bag. (Yes, I take my basket bag on the flight as I don't want it to get ruined in a suitcase). I'd most likely chuck this over a comfy midi dress or slouchy trousers with a tee—never jeans as they're so uncomfortable!"

"Whether or not I'm travelling, I'm the sort of person who likes to layer year-round as I always feel the chill. For the plane, I'll wear a blazer over a shirt layered over a vest, and then I'll drape a cardigan overtop of my tote so I have it on hand when I inevitably get cold. Although my outfits usually revolve around dresses and skirts, jeans with stretch in them are my go-to for flights (again with the sole intention of keeping myself cosy). Superga trainers serve as my shoes of choice as they allow me to dash as quickly as possible from the plane to baggage collection to my hotel. I'm all about maximising my pool time."

Remy Farrell, Fashion Editor

"There is something supremely decadent about cloud-soft cashmere on a long-haul flight, and as I end up building most of my holiday outfits around a basic tank top, I'll wear one to the airport layered under a jacket. As soon as I step off the plane and into the heat, I'll swap out the comfy trousers for a printed midi skirt to make the most of that bare-legged feeling."

Florrie Alexander, Acting Affiliates Editor 

"When it comes to travelling, I'm all about comfort whether its a two or fifteen hour flight, and wide-leg trousers have become my go-to when heading on a plane. For the summer months, a pair of linen trousers is the first piece I reach for, as the light layer will also be fitting when we touch down in hotter climes (there's nothing worse than trying to change into shorts in a tiny airplane bathroom) and crinkling of the fabric won't look out of place. Layers are key to my airport outfits, as you never quite know how intense the A/C on the plane will be. A large scarf can always be found in my carry on, acting as a wrap when chilly, or bundled up for a make-shift pillow as needed. Comfort to me is also about having my necessities close to hand, so a large tote bag that can accompany water, snacks, a book, chargers, more snacks and a couple magazines is a must."

Poppy Nash, Managing Editor

"I'm a dress girl through and through, so it will come as no surprise to hear that I always opt for a floaty, comfy midi for travelling. Normally I layer this with a cosy sweatshirt or quilted jacket, followed by Birkenstocks (even in the rain!) and a tote bag. If I'm travelling in the winter, I'd opt for leggings with the sweatshirt, and would just add some cashmere socks to go with the Birks!"

Eleanor Vousden, Beauty Editor

"I'm one of those rare breeds of people who like to travel in jeans. I'm not sure why, but I don't like to feel too sloppy when I travel, so I never wear jogging bottoms or anything too slouchy. I typically wear jeans, a T-shirt and a smarter blazer, and I'll bring a big scarf for the plane."
