Layer Up, Flow On: Studio-to-Street Style

Yoga | Sport

Your practice deserves a wardrobe that keeps up with it, from the first sun salutation to the long way home. As ever, the secret is in the layers: breathable underneath, cozy on top and polished enough for wherever the day goes next.

There is something wonderful about leaving a class feeling taller, calmer and a little lighter than when you walked in. The trick is holding on to that feeling once you are back on the sidewalk. Start with a base that moves, add a layer with personality and step out the door ready for brunch, errands or one more lap around the park.

Start with a base that breathes

Every good outfit begins at the foundation. The Tonic Tranquil Open Back Tank with Shelf Bra, Ultramarine/Black (XS, S, M, L) is made for flow, with an open back for air flow, a space-dye shelf bra with removable cups and moisture-wicking, quick-dry fabric. A wide banded hem stays put through every forward fold, and it is made in Canada.

For him, the 4-rth Sustain Ribbed Tank, Heather Gray (S, M, L) is a fitted, body-contouring tank in soft ribbed ProModal, a fiber made from wood pulp. It moves through a strenuous session, then works as a base layer under a shirt or fleece afterward. Made in the USA.

Add a layer with personality

Savasana is over, and the studio door opens onto the rest of your day. Reach for the Om Girl Devotion Reversible Dolman Sleeve Pullover, Desert Dusk (XS/S), which is really two tops in one: wear it with a deep V wrap neckline one way or a boatneck the other. The loose body and 3/4 dolman sleeves slip easily over a tank, and it is made in the USA.

Want something cozier? The Lanston Lace Up Front Hoodie, Heather (XS, M) brings a dramatic lace-up detail to the chest, plus a hood, kangaroo pocket and relaxed fit. It is made in the USA and runs small, so size up for the slouchiest fit.

Finish with a little edge

The Solow Quilted Moto Sweatshirt, Cerulean/Black (XS, S, L) is the piece that makes the whole look feel intentional. Warm boucle fabric, quilted detailing and vegan leather elbow patches give it a moto attitude, and it is made in the USA. Wear it with leggings and your favorite sneakers, and nobody will guess you just finished your practice.

For him, the Threads 4 Thought Men’s Long Sleeve Henley Thermal Shirt, Biking Red (S, XL) layers neatly under a jacket or vest or looks sharp on its own. Its thermal textured fabric, a blend of recycled polyester, organic cotton and rayon, holds in warmth on the walk home.
