2021’s Activewear Trends Are Ushering In a Serious Sartorial Movement

Sure, it’s perfectly logical to opt for a pair of beat-up leggings and stained muscle tee from middle school P.E. days, but frankly, there’s something to be said about the power of a flattering and stylish activewear outfit and its ability to elevate the level of motivation required to actually get the workout done. Am I right? Obviously a spin class — or let’s face it — an at-home workout isn’t a fashion show, but if dressing up in an on-trend activewear get-up to break a sweat gets me going, why not put on some cute leggings and a matching top that lifts my backside and makes me feel cute while I’m at it?

While we don’t often think of activewear when forecasting fashion trends, 2020 was the year of athleisure, stretchy leggings, and all things comfort. Many of us are still practicing social distancing measures and working from home, which has propelled the activewear market to serve us some ~seriously~ fashion-y pieces that took the category to the next level. Barre to brunch has never held greater value.

Nowadays, activewear designs borrow the same print, cut, and design trends as regular apparel, and I am seriously here for this shift. While many of the fashion-forward performance leggings tend to fall under the luxury end of the spectrum, affordable brands are now beginning to follow suit. And, now that 2021 is underway, fresh activewear styles inspired by other current sartorial movements are still coming in hot, so we decided to give you the lowdown on all the best trends you’ll want to wear 24/7 — not just while you’re workin’ on your fitness.

Our mission at STYLECASTER is to bring style to the people, and we only feature products we think you’ll love as much as we do. Please note that if you purchase something by clicking on a link within this story, we may receive a small commission of the sale.

Jumpsuits & Unitards

The good ’80s leotard look is back this year with fresh, modernized details that make the trend feel anything but dated. Onesies, unitards, rompers, or jumpsuits — call it whatever you want to call it, but one-piece activewear is officially back.

Lingerie-Inspired (Leisureé)

Lingerie has long been a major influence when it comes to apparel trends in fashion, but this year it’s finally made its way to activewear. From corset-inspired seams to built-in bras and peek-a-boo lace-up fastenings, fitness attire has never been sexier.

Flared Leggings

Yet another sartorial moment born from viral TikTok content, flare leggings/yoga pants are officially back — and these aren’t the less-than-flattering “jazz pants” from the aughts either. Emma Chamberlain would definitely approve of the picks below.

Luxe Cut-Out Details

This year’s cut-out trend is less about showing off some skin in unexpected places, and more focussed on geometric lines derived from the runways. Think unusual, asymmetric, and crisscross details.

Tie-Dye & Acid Wash

Tie-dye sweatpants were the bottom of choice in 2020, and the retro print has endured and shifted to activewear pieces that are so easy to style for a workout class or just running some errands.

Leather-Like & Patent

Leather pants are the hottest fashion trend of the moment, and activewear has definitely caught on. These faux-leather and vinyl leggings aren’t the rigid leather trousers you’re used to though—they give you plenty of flexibility to actually work out if you choose to do so (and no judgment if you don’t, obviously).
