Fitness wear Trends

High Waisted Leggings.

The high waisted legging is now the forerunner in fitness wear trends.

Team it with a scrunch booty and textured bubble style and you have an absolute winner.

Hugging the body flawlessly and hiding imperfections are just some of it’s attributes.

We love that this style accentuates the booty with the scrunch detailing on the bottom. We also love how it creates that hourglass look by slimming the waist because of the high -rise style. A wide, flat waistband sits flush on the tummy area to produce this look.

The textured bubble fabric masks those unsightly bumps..which…let’s face it ladies are an absolute pain to get rid of!

Now there is an all in one legging..so flattering and suitable for every body type.

You know you have to add this to your gym wardrobe.

Always made with love in Brazil!

The ultimate scrunch booty legging is here. Taking the fitness world by storm this Brand has been so successful in the US and Worldwide.

Extreme lift of the derrier is the goal with these leggings…cut and styled in a way that accentuates the butt. Rouched detailing on the bottom creates a lifting effect.

Of-course Squats and great nutrition are a necessary part of a great booty shape but these leggings certainly help!

Coming soon is also in the new Zero Flaws fabric..we cannot wait for these beauties to arrive.

Try them and you’ll fall in love.

Introducing the bubble legging

We love the textured legging so much that we have created our own “BrazilActiv” textured legging.

Otherwise known as the bubble legging the unique fabric hides imperfections and masks unwanted cellulite allowing you to wear any coloured legging you like. Gone are the days when you had to stick to basic black for fear of those slight bumps showing through your gym leggings.

Now you can enjoy the masking effect of these fabulous gym tights which also glide on like a second pair of skin and mould onto your body perfectly.

So comfortable you’ll want to wear them all day!
