The best new luxury Workout and activewear collections
1. Urban Jungle
Camo is the new animal print. Most likely inspired by the necessity of exercising outdoors – in the urban jungle – we think the chic pattern transitions seamlessly to non-work out days too.

1- Update that boring gray sweatshirt with Sundry’s airy knit ($122) in a subtle camouflage swirl.
2- When you’re working out in the summer heat, it’s biker shorts to the rescue. This pair from Nike ($35) does the job.
3- This All Access sports bra and legging set ($68 for sports bra, $98 for leggings) is made with silky-smooth compression fabric. The leggings have been updated with pockets on each side for storing larger essentials like cell phone and keys.
4- This on-trend mask from Carbon 38 ($29 for set of 2) will help keep you safe and cool with a multi-layered filtration system and fast-drying antibacterial fabric.
5- If you really want to camouflage yourself on the city streets, this slick, metallic set from Alo Yoga ($68 for bra, $72 for shorts) will help you blend right in.
6- Vee Collective’s tote ($189) is made with a quilted technical weave and elevated with genuine leather trim.
7- We love Ultracor’s ($325) second-skin fit and this particular camo pattern gives us refreshing, underwater vibes.
8- Stance’s performance socks ($20) are engineered to stand up to high-impact activities with exceptional breathability and premium cushioning for all-day comfort.

2. Pinky Promise
Pastels have been trending for a while and in activewear, rosy and muted pinks are still one of our faves. They’re graceful and tough like ballerinas working on their pirouettes in the studio.

1- Outdoor Voice’s famous colorblocked tech sweat leggings ($98) combine the irresistibly named colors Mulberry, Rhubarb and Provence.
2- You can never have too many retro scrunchies, especially when they’re as soft and velvety as this set of 5 from Kitsch ($12).
3- If you still haven’t tried Lululemon’s buttery soft Nulu fabric leggings ($118), this high-rise version with a pretty cut-out design is a must-buy.
4- We can already see ourselves reaching for this lovely dip dye tank ($79) from Year of Ours again and again.
5- In shades of blush and grays, this mat ($39) is perfect for yogis to get in the zone.
6- Veja’s Condor running sneaker ($160) is consciously crafted with recycled plastic and ethically sourced rubber and looks as alluring as a ballet slipper.
7- This sweatshirt ($200) from Y-3 is a timeless staple and the thick French Terry feels soft and luxurious.

3. Brights
Neons give a natural jolt of energy; it’s no wonder that they always seem to find their way into activewear. While you can always pair them with black, this summer, why not go head to toe?

1- We love this T-back Alala top ($65) because it feels like it is barely there for those sweat-drenched workout sessions.
2- Happy feet! A swirl of bright colors from light pink to orange to aqua on these Air Max 200s ($130) should get you moving (and looking stylin’).
3- We’ll be honest. We might not have the guts to wear this hot pink set from All Access ($68 for sports bra and $78 for bottoms) at the gym, but when we’re working out at home, why not?
4- Can’t pick a neon hue? These color blocked leggings ($145) solve that problem!
5- Legs for days- these tights ($98) from Spiritual Gangster are constructed with a soft and stretchy ribbed performance fabric with perforated detail on the outer legs.
6- This retro backpack ($108) from a collab by Reebok + Victoria Beckham is generously sized for all your workout paraphernalia.
4. Blank Slate
Consider a refreshing palate cleanser of minimalist, monochrome outfits in soft colors like neutral white, gray and blue. You’ll be totally on-trend with the move toward monochromatic matching sets. Which always looks classically chic and effortless.

3- Beyond Yoga’s space dyed tank ($66) comes with a built-in bra so you can keep those sleek spaghetti strap lines and matching leggings ($97) are high-waisted for a long, lean line.
4- Alo Yoga designed this New Moon Tank ($48) with airy, dropped armholes in soft jersey. It is perfect for layering over a statement sports bra…or not, if you’re going for that monochrome vibe. Pair with these mesh biker shorts ($62) with a sporty, sculpting Airbrush short overlayer for a bit of modesty and instant cool-girl vibes.
5- With a custom milled satin elastic strap on a slip-on design, the Techloom Bliss from APL ($200) is so seamless, it feels like it becomes one with your feet. And no shoe laces mean one less obstacle to chasing those goals!
6- Part superhero, part designer jumpsuit? This winning ribbed set ($72 for crop top and $104 for leggings) from Year of Ours has us swooning.
