Unlike shoes, handbags, and jewelry, I’m content with my activewear being considered “basic.” It’s a category I think benefits from the less-is-more approach. Instead of trendy silhouettes and IG-worthy designs, I look for practical colors that hide sweat stains and technical fabrics that keep me cool. That said, basic doesn’t have to mean boring, and I welcome subtle updates that maintain a garment’s utility with just a hint of extra flair. And that’s where Gisele Bündchen comes in.
Photographed in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Bündchen wore olive-green leggings with a lace-up waistband along with a pair of Asics x Emmi Gel-Cumulus 16 Sneakers ($150). The cute detail at the waist gives them a fashion-person edge without being impractical or difficult to wear. Because I’m a bit of a lazy dresser, I love when a built-in detail adds interest to my outfit so I don’t have to worry about elevating it myself. If you want to kick your leggings up a notch, scroll down to shop the trend I predict will surge in popularity this fall.
