GJanuary, month of good intentions. And once the holidays are over, the fateful diktat returns: back to gym. Getting back into shape, at this time of year, sounds like a necessity (even though it often isn’t). To find the right motivation and silence feelings of guilt, the gym outfit provides valid help.
The mission, look good and feel better. Trying out a new workout in vogue like Lagree, the last stage of pilates, sweating it out at Hyrox because crossfit is now outdated, or relaxing your muscles at the classic hatha yoga class on Sunday: here’s what clothing (and what accessories) to focus on to run to class with an extra sprint. The fittest stars, from Dakota Johnson to Hailey Bieber, teach.
New gym shoes
Changing sneakers at least once a year helps performance. Dakota Johnson knows this well, spotted on December 27, 2025 already heading for a post-Christmas workout in Los Angeles, suggesting one of the best methods to encourage training: a pair of new gym shoes. For those who want to copy his model, it’s Nike V2K Run, in vintage style: among the coolest for a stylish return to your tools (and more).

A totally sexy piece of sportswear
Physical activity doesn’t just improve your body, it also increases your self-confidence. This is why between the reformers or on the mat a sensual (even if strictly technical) piece of clothing helps. A top with strategic cut-outs (to be copied from top model Georgia Fowler) leggings with see-through mesh inserts: elegance, determination and sexyness guaranteed.

A maxi shirt instead of the usual sweatshirt
Not just training. Even the road to the gym offers delicious opportunities to show off all your style. And who knows better than the stars: Tate McRae’s idea of going to class in a maxi shirt. The boss has a specific name, shacket: a flannel or heavy cloth shirt, with an oversized and masculine cut. Also perfect with leggings and sneakers instead of a down jacket, as demonstrated by the young singer-songwriter’s outfit.

Color leggings
New gym class… or usual equipment? In any case, a pair of flaming and trendy leggings, in an energetic and sophisticated shadeit helps. Like leggings teal colour by Hailey Bieber: hers are signed Set Activeamong the most popular at the moment among the trendsetters, together with top brands such as Alo Yoga, Adanola and Lululemon. Other nuances to consider? Wine red and chocolate brownto be enjoyed without guilt.

A new stylish accessory
The lively (or designer) water bottle, the cool socks. In the room “accessorizing” is not forbidden, on the contrary: a new must-have piece, just like a gym bag or a notable headband, they are the touch of glamor that doesn’t hurt.

For gym addicts, even a glamorous gym accessory aimed at use – chic anklets, a refined loop band, a logo towel – represent an extra incentive to tackle the workout.
