TL;DR<\/p>\n

\n

I’ve noticed a fair share of new activewear trends since frequenting the same NYC pilates studio for months. Some of the most notable: early 2000s-inspired flared leggings (also known as yoga pants), like these CRZ YOGA Butterluxe Flare Leggings, and pilates socks that are equally cute and functional for mat or reformer classes, like these Flydo Grippy Socks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Since the advent of the \u201cPilates Princess\u201d and \u201cClean Girl<\/u>\u201d aesthetics not too long ago, group fitness classes, and, more importantly, the outfits you wear to them, have become an unexpected hot topic. The prominence of matching sets and influencer-favorite activewear<\/u> brands like ALO<\/u> has popularized the idea that what you wear to your workout class matters just as much as the energy you put into the class itself\u2014or, at least, that\u2019s what social media seems to tell us.\n<\/p>\n

As someone who decided a few months ago to challenge myself to commit to a rigid workout regimen, specifically participating in heated pilates<\/u> and sculpt classes four times a week, I\u2019ve been taking note of the most recent NYC-based activewear trends, from Y2K-inspired capri leggings<\/u> and yoga pants to sports bras cool enough to be fashion statements on their own. Analyzing what real people are wearing to work out (not just influencers on TikTok) has inspired me to consider new brands and styles for my own workout wardrobe\u2014because what I’m seeing is not only cute but, more importantly, functional, particularly for a heated class.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

Ahead, after months of sweating in the same studio, the pieces and brands I\u2019ve noticed everyone sporting in class. Plus, some of my personal favorite options that get me through even the toughest sweats.\n<\/p>\n

My Go-To Workout Gear <\/span><\/h2>\n

I\u2019ve amassed a large collection of activewear over the years, but there are a few pieces that I truly reach for every week, including the most flattering and comfiest ALO sports bra that I want in every color imaginable, and the only<\/em> underwear I exercise in now, thanks to ultra-comfortable and actually sweat-wicking design.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

Unique Sports Bras <\/span><\/h2>\n

The days of simple, monochromatic racerback sports bras are dwindling, according to the women at my pilates studio. Instead, they\u2019re embracing bold colors, funky straps, and abstract designs.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

Flared Leggings (Or Yoga Pants) <\/span><\/h2>\n

Depending on your generation, you might know these as flared leggings or yoga pants. No matter what you call them, it\u2019s no secret that flared leggings are just as cute as they are comfortable enough for working out in. Plus, you can lounge in them on your days off from class.\n<\/p>\n

Lululemon (Yes, It\u2019s Still Everywhere) <\/span><\/h2>\n

One major observation: Activewear OG Lululemon is still alive and well in the pilates studios. I see the brand\u2019s famous logo on the back of many pairs of simple black leggings and sports bras as I scan the room before class starts. In a world now dominated by new activewear brands, it\u2019s cool to still see so many Lululemon loyalists.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

One-Pieces <\/span><\/h2>\n

A type of activewear I never considered until I saw girls sporting it in recent classes, the one-piece (or unitard, jumpsuit, romper\u2014whatever you want to call it) is perfect for anyone who hates the stress of putting together a whole ensemble before working out.\n<\/p>\n

Capri Leggings <\/span><\/h2>\n

Yes, you read that correctly: capris are making a comeback in a big way (and I\u2019m not mad about it!). While you may have mostly embraced this style in your youth, the pilates girls are revamping it for heated classes. The shorter hemlines allow for more breathability when you\u2019re majorly sweating.\n<\/p>\n

Pilates Socks <\/span><\/h2>\n

Whether you\u2019re in a pilates reformer class and required to wear pilates socks or want to avoid slipping and sliding on the mat in a hot class (or are just prefer not<\/em> to go barefoot), consider throwing any of these cute pairs in your bag.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n
