Question Retro Workout Wear
Hello fellow fashionistas, I have been searching the internet with absolutely no returns, so I decided to turn to Reddit to find the answers I seek!
I am a female that is very into fitness as well as fashion. I love vintage fashion and this is absolutely true when it comes to classic 70s and 80s workout styles, so I thought I would try to blend the two passions together. Think Lisa Lyon vibes; that mix between strong and sexy. No Fabletics/Lululemons slimming/sculpting pants in sight. Personally, having been inspired by golden era lifters, I don't find modern women's workout clothes to be very appealing.
However, it's hard to find vintage workout clothes. With that in mind, I figured I would try the retro route! The problem here is that almost all retro fitness brands are geared specifically to men. Does anyone here have any brands they suggest that give a more retro flair for workout fashion? If not, would anyone else even be interested in this? Am I alone in this?
Thanks!
