Stars and fashion editors are beyond obsessed with Beyond Yoga’s buttery soft styles. Famous Jennifers (Aniston and Lopez) are hooked on the brand’s supportive sports bras, while Lily Aldridge has starred in its campaigns.

Page Six Style’s review: “I don’t know what Beyond Yoga puts in their stuff, but it’s the softest, buttery-est most comfortable-to-the-touch fabric I’ve ever felt — especially for activewear. Their sports bras come in a wide range of compression, making them perfect for any type of work out, yoga or beyond,” Page Six Style Senior Writer/Editor Melissa Minton says of the Beyond Yoga Spacedye Embody Bra.

It’s hard to talk activewear without mentioning lululemon. After all, from real-life royals like Kate Middleton to Hollywood royalty including Kim Kardashian, countless stars own its styles.

With several support levels — and options for cup sizes A to DDD — the retailer’s a one-stop shop for fashionable and functional sports bras.

Page Six Style’s review: “Believe it or not, I only recently purchased my very first lululemon piece — the Like a Cloud Bra — after accidentally packing only one sports bra for a nearly two-week trip to Aspen, where athleisure is the unofficial uniform,” says Page Six Style Editor Elana Fishman.

“I had long assumed everything the brand makes is super compressive, so imagine my surprise and delight when I discovered just how comfortable (yet still supportive) this style truly is. It’s already become my go-to sports bra; in fact, I’m thinking about picking it up in a few other colors.”
