What to Wear on a Long-Haul Flight, Told by Travel Bloggers |Best Knockoff Luxury Clothing

last updated 6 December 2018

When it comes to airport style, we'd traditionally have looked to the A-list for inspiration. However, with exclusive lounges and private jets at their disposal, it's not always an accurate representation of which outfits truly work when you're midair. Nowadays, we look to Instagram's travel set to inform our mile-high wares, and two girls who know good aeroplane outfits are Jordan and Loanne of @collyertwins.

With 11 countries under their belt this year alone, we couldn't think of a better duo to talk in-flight fashion with. From comfortable strides to the ingenious dressing hacks the girls use to stay cosy and look chic, keep scrolling to discover the pieces Jordan and Loanne swear by for flying.

CASHMERE KNIT

"We never get on a plane without a cashmere jumper. The high wool content keeps us toasty but doesn't make us overheat either. Perfect for notoriously chilly nighttime flights."

Extreme Cashmere

No.36 Be Classic Cashmere Sweater

Karen Millen

Cashmere Kimono Jumper

Whistles + Cashmere Crew Neck Jumper

CHUNKY TRAINERS

"If you're anything like us, you'll be rushing around picking up last-minute items in the airport before boarding. Then, when you finally arrive, you're so impatient to get to your destination that you practically run through the airport. This is exactly why trainers are our flying footwear go-to. Look for chunky styles to disguise unsightly but very necessary flight socks."

Zara

Contrasting Sneakers

Adidas Originals

Falcon Mesh, Suede and Leather Sneakers

Chloé

Sonnie Sneakers

POLISHED JOGGERS

"Jeans are a definite no-go on any flight, which makes for the perfect excuse to wear joggers. We love side-stripe styles as they look more fashionable than other options."

Étoile Isabel Marant

Dobbs Trackpants

John Lewis Partners

Contrast Side Jogger Trousers

Prada

Jersey Track Pants

STRIPED TEE

"One of the best things about flying long-haul is the snacks. One of the worst is potentially spilling your food down yourself and having to sit there for hours on end until you can change, which is why we always wear printed tops. They help disguise any turbulence-induced spills."

Selected Femme

Stripe Boxy T-Shirt

BUCKET BAG

"Bucket bags are great as they're roomy enough to hold all of your in-flight essentials, cinch closed to ensure nothing falls out and don't take up much leg room. Bonus."

Charles Keith

Black Panel Drawstring Bag

Mulberry

Small Hampstead Sorbet Pink Classic Grain Bag

JERSEY DRESS

"Dresses on a long flight might not seem practical, but there's no denying how comfy they are in super-soft jersey. A wrap style is perfect for layering over a top to keep you warm. It's great because you can loosen it off once the snack trolley comes round for the third time."

H&M

Jersey Crêpe Dress

Elizabeth and James

Kellen Ribbed Cotton-Jersey Dress

Monki

OVERSIZED SCARF

"Some airlines provide blankets on longer journeys, but we always prefer to take a large scarf with us to bundle up with under."

Woven Wool Scarf

Balenciaga

Intarsia Wool Scarf

Ribbed Wool-Blend Scarf
