One scroll through Instagram and it’s clear that matching sets are the look of summer from pastel and neon shades to splashy prints like tropical motifs, tie-dye, and leopard.
“Matching sets are guaranteed to look great together, so it makes it easy to choose your activewear outfit, says Jennifer Bandier, owner of her namesake fitness boutique. “You see women opting for matching sets in ready-to-wear as well, with Reformation really pioneering that movement.”
“A solid will outline your exact body shape, where as the right print will enhance your beautiful curves.”
If you require a little extra motivation to get a sweat sesh in, a fashion-forward bra-and-legging set can help get you in the mood and won’t appear unflattering if you’re comfort zone is head-to-toe black. “There’s an old myth that a solid is more flattering than a print, but if you pick the right print it can often be the opposite,” says Jodhi Meares, founder of the luxury activewear label, The Upside. “A solid will outline your exact body shape, where as the right print will enhance your beautiful curves.”
If you still find prints intimidating, Meares recommends a black and white palette as a starting point.” Here are 15 matching activewear sets to break the mold this summer (even if you only wear yours to the grocery store).
