Seeing familiar leopard prints and ruffles on lululemon‘s classic activewear might make you do a double take. But it’s true: lululemon and GANNI—two brands already beloved by women—have teamed up to release a 22-piece collaborative collection. Filled with Copenhagen’s laid-back attitude, the pieces will make you want to wear them straight out on the street, even if you have zero plans to hit the gym.
The classic Define Jacket gets a makeover
This collaboration draws inspiration from 1980s dance movies, tapping into that high-energy, purely self-expressive mood as the perfect starting point for the two brands to meet. Familiar lululemon classics, like the highly popular Define Jacket, have been reimagined with GANNI’s signature leopard prints, bold color-blocking, and playful ruffle details. The pieces still feature lululemon’s signature technical fabrics, but visually, they look like completely stylish everyday outfits.
Cute accessories like leg warmers and cropped boleros
Beyond sports bras and leggings, this collection also hides a few tempting little accessories. Channeling a retro 80s dance style, the lineup includes leg warmers, cropped boleros, and athletic headbands. Usually reserved for ballet studios, these items are now infused with GANNI’s design aesthetic, making them perfectly natural to throw on whether you’re heading to Pilates or grabbing a weekend coffee.
Release date and availability
For this collaboration, the brands enlisted actor Jennifer Beals and singer METTE to shoot the “Joy Is A Power Move” campaign. Watching the two dance spontaneously in a studio is truly infectious. The lululemon x GANNI collaborative collection will launch on October 15 on the official lululemon and GANNI websites in select regions.
