Premier League 2016/17: How does your team rank in SunSport’s Prem fashion guide?

We asked the football fashionistas at Fabulous magazine for the lowdown on what's hot, and what's not, this season...

IT HAS been a long summer of transfer sagas, wantaway strikers, greedy agents, money-spinning Asian tours.

But with the big Premier League kick-off now just ONE day away, football fans can finally focus on what really matters...

Our friends at Fabulous have run the rule of this season's Premier League kits

THE new kits have been released for the 2016/17 season and we’ve been given the green light to rate and slate the new styles.

We may not know the offside rule, but we definitely do know how we want a man to look when he’s running around the pitch.

 

TIPPED FOR THE TOP

Arsenal home

POINTS for keeping their kit the most consistent goes to… Arsenal.

Sticking with their traditional red and white design, Arsenal proves why sticking with what you know can pay off.

Well, when it comes to football kits anyway.

 

Everton away

YOU just can’t go wrong with an all-navy get-up, as Everton knows oh so well.

This kit may well be the one we would choose to wear – you know, if we had to.

 

Sunderland away

SUNDERLAND gets top marks for originality.

We love a bit of pink and purple together – Kenzo and Loewe showcased this combo for the new season Autumn/Winter 16 – so this one is right on trend.

 

Tottenham Hotspur away

MUSTARD is a key colour for AW16 – it was all over the catwalks this season at the likes of Gucci and Valentino.

Wearing it head to toe may be a bit of overkill, but we can let Tottenham off this time.

 

Liverpool

IN addition to the staple home and away kit, Liverpool FC is totally upping their game in the style stakes with their third alternative kit.

Obviously their colour choice was inspired by the likes of Nina Ricci and Sonia Rykiel who wore head-to-toe red on the catwalks, I mean, who else…

 

RELEGATION DOGFIGHT

Swansea home

White is so last season... and that was one Swansea would like to forget

WHITE is so last season. Nobody wants to wear white all over in winter unless it’s chunky knits.

Also it’s totally impractical and will show up all those unwanted grass stains that will ruin the whole outfit.

Swansea, think about what you’ve done.

 

Bournemouth third kit

WE ARE all for neon on the dance floor but surely this is taking it a step too far for the football pitch?

With this glow-in-the-dark kit, Bournemouth could save on their electricity bills this winter and switch off the floodlights to boost their home advantage.

 

Manchester City home

Manchester City look like the cast of Avatar in their all-blue number

IT looks like the inspiration for the new Manchester City home kit was the 2009 fantasy science fiction film, Avatar.

Now all they need is some blue face paint to complete the look.

 

West Ham home

West Hams new kit is just too similar to previous strips

WE like to change up our accessories more than once a season, so surely West Ham could come up with a more unique design for the latest kits?

They have released a new design for their home kit though, which is better than nothing we suppose.

 

Watford home

Contrasting collars do not cut the mustard for Watford

WHILE neon seems to be a popular choice this season we just can’t forgive this bright yellow and contrasting collar on Watford’s home kit.

We were expecting a bit more originality – time to up your game Hornets.
