Spanish term or phrase: juega con el look
How can I say this in English please? I do not like "playing with the look" in this context......

juega con el look de este deporte para trasladarlo a la colección de textil y punto donde destacan los tejidos imitando la pintura de los coches o las cremalleras propias de los monos de competición
