Discover the Athleisure trend: Ideas and tips for your outfit

Fashion has completely changed the way we think about comfort. Today, you no longer need to choose between looking polished or feeling relaxed: athleisure style proves that both can coexist in the same outfit. This trend has become a favourite for many women around the world because it combines sportswear with urban pieces, creating modern, comfortable looks full of personality.

In this article, you will discover what athleisure is, how it started, practical tips on how to style athleisure outfits and examples of looks you can easily recreate with pieces from Ysabel Mora.

What is athleisure and how did it start?

The word “athleisure” comes from combining “athletic” and “leisure”. It refers to a style that blends sportswear with more casual or even smart pieces, resulting in versatile outfits that work both for the gym and for everyday life.

Although it began as a trend in the early 2000s, it really took off over the last decade with the rise of fitness culture, remote work and the growing demand for comfort in fashion. Today, women’s athleisure is not only present on the catwalks, but also in everyday street style, making it one of the key trends for 2025.

Its success lies in offering functionality and style at the same time. You can wear comfortable leggings with trainers and, by adding a long coat or a structured bag, turn your look into a modern urban outfit suitable for many different occasions.

How to style athleisure: tips

Athleisure style is not about dressing as if you were going straight to the gym, but about finding the balance between sporty and casual. Here are some practical tips to build athleisure outfits that actually work:

• Leggings as your base: pair black leggings with oversized T-shirts or sweatshirts and add a knitted cardigan or a light blazer for an easy, urban athleisure look.
  

• Trainers + a smarter piece: your favourite sneakers can work with casual dresses or midi skirts, bringing comfort and a fresh, relaxed twist to your outfit.
  

• Layering with intention: a base-layer T-shirt combined with a sweatshirt and a bomber jacket creates a sporty look with an urban edge that fits perfectly into the athleisure trend.
  

• Minimal accessories: beanies, small backpacks or sunglasses add the finishing touch without overloading the outfit.
  

👉 At Ysabel Mora you will find sportswear designed with comfortable, breathable fabrics that fit perfectly into women’s athleisure style: leggings, sports tops, sweatshirts and base-layer T-shirts that are easy to mix and match.
