Matching Face Mask Sets Are a Whole 2020 Mood

Goodboy

Fashion trends come and go, but some have proven staying power, especially when they’re mandatory in most public spaces. Thanks to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), face masks have become an unlikely wardrobe staple, and since fashion often reflects the world around us, designers are flexing their creative muscles by introducing quarantine-friendly iterations. Right now, those are complete with built-in face coverings, coordinating scrunchies, and—to the delight of animal lovers everywhere—face mask and bandana sets for you and your dog.

What initially began as a way to meet the shortage of protective gear has transformed into a full-fledged design overhaul in our quest to redefine the new normal. For example, designer Cynthia Cazort Collins created the "2020 caftan" that features a detachable scarf that can be worn as a face mask; a dog brand created a matching face mask and bandana bundle so that people can match with their furry BFFs; and Free People made a scrunchie and face mask set. “Fashion and functionality are not mutually exclusive,” explains Collins of this growing trend.

Even if matching isn’t your vibe, you have to admit that this is a pretty cute trend. Personally, we think matching face mask sets inject a very welcome sense of joy into our wardrobes, so we're stocking up. Here are some fun options to shop now.
