Flare If You Dare
Pant legs have been getting wider and wider. It may be time to make room for a pair or two of wide-leg or flared bottoms.
Bold details are taking the lead in 2023. People want to show up and show out for everything from pilates to grocery store runs—think cutouts, asymmetrical shapes, color-blocking, thumb holes and so much more.
From full-length bodysuits to biker unitards, we've been seeing activewear lovers embrace the one-piece. The style simplifies getting ready, so it's probably here to stay.
Workout skirts and dresses have been on the rise for some years now. But in 2023, expect to see more of these designs reflect the tennis world. Everyone will be channeling their inner Serena Willams before you know it.
It's becoming increasingly popular to schedule errands, activities, and hangouts right after a workout. Many are opting for chic lounge and sporty/streetwear pieces to throw on post-workout to look put together and trendy while maintaining comfort.
