The athleisure trend has taken the world by storm.
From the buzzy Lululemon to sweat-proof, gym-ready, exercise-compatible beauty, the trend, closely associated with comfort, has gradually transformed into a closet staple rather than another fleeting fashion movement, while remaining mindful not to sacrifice style and good, old-fashioned vanity for the sake of comfort.
Made Popular (And Made Here To Stay) By Social Media Influencers, Celebrities, Fitness Leaders
The popularity is also mainly due to fashion and social media influencers, celebrities, and fitness key opinion leaders, who are pushing the trend to the forefront by simply appearing in sports bras and sweatpants, or by giving sportswear a stylish twist with dressier options.
With the constant imagery practically plastered across our home feeds, it didn't take long for us to acknowledge and accept that luxury athletic and sportswear is acceptable for brunch, work, and the gym.

The Ripple Effect Of Athleisure Wear
As the trend has become the norm, it has also created a ripple effect, making individuals more image- and body-conscious.
Many of us are becoming more interested in working out and eating right as we perceive that having an athletic body is necessary to look good in sportswear.
Dr Ivan Puah shares, "There has been an increasing demand for 4D Liposuction (Hi-Definition Liposuction) as the procedure can zero in on problematic areas and help transform the body like no exercise regime can."
Here's how this increasingly popular body-sculpting procedure can help you rock athleisure wear in style.
