The athleisure revival has arrived with the sporty chic trend ignited by Olympic fever

As the world tunes into the excitement of the Olympics, a fresh resurgence of athleisure is making a bold return. From the stadiums in Paris to the streets of Los Angeles, sporty style is back in a big way. Celebrities are leading the charge, blending athletic wear with high fashion to create looks that are both functional and fierce. But how exactly has the Olympics driven the athleisure revival? And how can you incorporate it into your wardrobe?

Kendall Jenner and Lady Gaga turned heads at the Paris Olympics by making Team USA gear a must-have. Jenner was spotted in an official Team USA jacket from Ralph Lauren, paired with a matching hat—the same style the flag bearers will wear at the closing ceremony. Lady Gaga followed suit, choosing a different shade of the same Ralph Lauren jacket. Together, they’ve transformed Olympic apparel into something you would be able to wear all year round.

However, this Olympic athleisure revival isn't just making a splash in Paris. Rihanna has been spotted blending street style with office chic, teaming a sports jersey and cap with a touch of boss-lady flair. Alexa Demie also embraced the trend at Charli XCX’s birthday bash, pairing a sports jersey with short shorts, tights and high boots.
