Misty Copeland, the first African-American woman to become a principal dancer for the American Ballet Theater, has launched an amazing line with Under Armour. Her take on activewear sets a very ballet meets badass vibe that you totally need in your life. Misty created this collection in an effort to introduce clothing that will take you from street style to the gym efortlessly.
As Copeland has told Vogue, “I’m not in clothes for very long periods of time, because I literally have something to wear to the studio and then I’m in a leotard and tights for eights hours of the day. So all these pieces fit into my everyday streetwear.”
Her 13-piece line is definitely trendy enough for Misty’s high-pressure life, whether she’s in the studio or hanging with her friends. Prices range from $45 to $200 and are absolutely justified, considering the cool and wide range of designs the dancer has come up with. From strappy sports bras to (totally wearable) harem joggers in the trendiest colors, Misty’s collection screams athleisure—which is so in, btw.
Traditional ballet wear turned cool-girl workout gear is exactly what this collection is all about. So if you’re looking for street style pieces that will keep you comfortable and ready for surprise workouts, look no further.
