Ah, the ‘70s! A time when the fashion scene was just as varied as the people. From disco fashion that embodied all things bright, sparkling and bold to the era of flower power that embraced earthy tones, florals and fringe. This fashion era was definitely one to remember both for its number of different styles and the way that expressing individual style took center stage in the fashion world.
And while those trends had faded over the last couple of decades they’re making a resurgence today. This decade is making a fashion comeback, and ‘70s workout clothes for women is the hot new trend that everyone wants to try.
Fortunately, the fashion industry has taken notice that women don’t just want to feel stylish when they’re out on the town but during their workouts, too. So more designers than ever before are creating active fashion for women that’s just as stylish as the rest of the clothes in their wardrobes—including ‘70s inspired athleisure that looks just as great in the gym as it does at the grocery store.
To give you an idea of just how gorgeous this trend is—and some tips on how to style it—we’re showing you a few of our ‘70s inspired pieces of women’s active fashion that we currently love.
We all know that the foundation of any good workout outfit is a supportive sports bra that both provides adequate support, and looks good on you. And our new ‘70s inspired collection has two sports bras that will give you a boost of confidence for a knockout workout or look uber-sexy as part of a chic day or night look. If you like glitter, you will instantly fall in love with this Disco Candy Bralette. It glitters like a disco ball and is the perfect combination of sexiness and femininity. Pair it with a sleek faux leather jacket and jeans to take on your day in style.
If a subtle keyhole sports bra is more you style, you can’t pass up this Freya High Neck Bra. Featuring subtle yet alluring colors, a unique mesh design, and an open keyhole back, you’ll definitely be the most fashionable woman at the gym. Plus, it features a high neckline that allows it to work just as well as a chic crop top to pair with leggings while running errands around town.
For a nighttime look that appears 100 percent put together (but is secretly super comfy), you can’t beat the Disco 54 Tank. Black glittery fabric and slinky spaghetti straps make it a perfect top for a girls’ night or a hot date. Pair it with some faux leather pants or a black pencil skirt for a memorable look you’ll want to wear over and over again.
We also have some fashion forward ‘70s workout leggings that we think you’ll adore. These Disco High Waisted Leggings are the ultimate expression of glitz and glamour—a gorgeous representation of modernized ‘70s style. With sparkle from top to bottom they’re equally as perfect for rocking it out in the gym as they are for pairing with a bright, solid-colored tee or crop top and sandals for an afternoon coffee run.
To capture the bold spirit of ‘70s style we decided to go all in with wild leopard leggings that just beg to be noticed. Featuring reflective side seams to elongate your legs, and a flattering four-way stretch material to hug your curves, these leggings will become your go-to pair when you want an extra boost of fierceness and confidence. To take them from a gym look to a style you can sport to Sunday brunch, add an oversized sweatshirt and slip-ons—the ideal combination of comfort and style.
