What is VSX?

What is Activewear?

Activewear encompasses a wide range of apparel specifically for sports and working out. Athleticwear can be focused solely on performance, but today’s activewear combines style and performance which means workout clothes can be worn for running and running errands—because moisture-wicking fabrics and ergonomic designs are great for any activeity.

What to Look for in Workout Clothes

Workout clothes balance comfort and performance. Fabrics should be breathable and moisture-wicking, which helps you keep cool and dry during intense workouts. Victoria’s Secret is proud to offer high quality fitness apparel in state-of-the-art performance fabrics that seamlessly blend style and function. Discover unmatched performance and stay cool and dry with comfort-luxe polyester, nylon, and elastane blends.

Another important factor is fit. Gym clothes should have a comfortable, snug fit that supports movement without restricting it. Enjoy lightweight, smoothing compression with Invisible Lift Technology, powered by LYCRA® FitSense™. Our iconic 4-ways stretch performance fabric has a barely-there feel. Additional features like pockets, adjustable straps, and reflective colors make your outfit even more practical.

How to Dress for Different Activities

Gym Clothes Activities

For full body workouts at home or the gym, choose attire that gives a full range of motion. This includes loose running shorts, t-shirts, mesh sports bra tops, and leggings. Mesh panels and ventilated fabric help prevent overheating. Seamless designs won’t pinch or rub into skin.

Yoga and Pilates

Stretch fabric is especially important for yoga and Pilates. Low-impact workouts involve a lot of bending and balance, so naturally you need an outfit that moves with you. Consider a fitted top like a longline sports bra for compression that sucks you in for perfect form. Similarly, yoga pants or biker shorts give you the freedom to stretch out.

Running

Aerobic activities are more comfortable when you can stay dry and cool. What you decide to run in depends on the temperature and weather outside. Choose between lightweight, loose running shorts in the summer and moisture wicking, lightly insulated leggings in the winter. A performance zip-up jacket can help you add and remove layers when it’s windy or wet outside.

Sports

Certain sports like tennis and golf may require a more polished dress code. Browse our athletic skirts and seamless workout tops for the perfect tenniscore outfit for the court. Preppy tennis outfits typically include a short, flair skirt and modest athletic top like a polo or body skimming tank.

Leisure

One of the benefits of owning cute workout gear is the versatility it provides your wardrobe. With athleisure outfits, Pilates clothes, and even running clothes at the top of trend lists, you can relax at home, run errands and then hit the gym or studio without a single outfit change.
