What to Wear to Pilates
At Pointe Studio, we know that feeling good in your workout gear is just as important as performing your best. That’s why we’ve created this guide to help you put together the perfect Pilates outfit. From supportive sports bras to trendy grip socks, dressing for Pilates is all about finding the right balance of style and function. Whether you're new to Pilates or a seasoned pro, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know about what to wear, while staying on top of the latest trends.
Grip Socks
Grip socks are essential for Pilates, and they come in a variety of styles that can enhance both your performance and your look. Pointe Studio's grip socks, with their non-slip soles, are made for keeping you grounded during those challenging poses. Customer favorites include our happy styles and varsity styles, not to mention our fun patterns that make you stand out. Not only do these grip socks keep you secured, but they also refresh your studio look.
Tops
When it comes to tops, breathable fabrics and a snug fit are essential. The current trend leans toward cropped tops, which pair perfectly with high-waisted leggings. Cropped tanks or tees, made from moisture-wicking materials, are a great choice. Not only do they keep you cool, but they also allow your instructor to check your alignment. Look for styles with fun cut outs or strappy backs, which are the latest craze, to add a personalized touch to your Pilates look.
Bottoms
High-waisted leggings continue to dominate the activewear scene, and for good reason. They provide core support, stay in place during even the toughest workouts, and pair perfectly with cropped tops. If you prefer something shorter, bike shorts are having a major moment and work just as well for Pilates. Opt for compression styles to give you the right balance of stretch and support.
Sports Bra
A supportive sports bra is a must, even in a low-impact workout like Pilates. Right now, bras with minimalistic straps and bold, clean designs are trending. These styles offer the right support while also letting you move freely. You’ll want to choose one that provides enough stretch for full range of motion during exercises like arm circles and roll-ups. Matching your sports bra with your leggings or choosing a set is another stylish trend that makes your outfit look effortlessly put together.
Accessories: Layers and Extras
Adding a cozy layer like an oversized sweater or hoodie is a great way to stay on-trend while keeping warm before and after your class. The current athleisure trend makes it easy to find options that are both fashionable and practical, with oversized and neutral-toned outerwear leading the way. Pair your Pilates outfit with a trendy gym bag, and don’t forget to stay hydrated with a reusable water bottle.
With the right gear, you’ll feel both stylish and supported as you step into your Pilates class. By incorporating these trendy, functional pieces into your wardrobe, you can move with confidence and ease while expressing your personal style.
