Top 10 Athletic And Sports Dresses

WHY IT MADE THE LIST
This slim-fitting dress has built-in shorts, plus thick straps and a shelf bra for moderate bust support. But the signature spacedye fabric is what really sets it apart. It has an incredibly soft and comfortable feel and four-way stretch, so it moves with you no matter how strenuous your workout is. It also wicks moisture and has UV protection, is easy to care for, and was made in the USA.

ADDITIONAL THINGS TO KNOW
Reviewers say this dress runs a bit small, so consider sizing up if you’re between sizes.

WHO IT’S FOR
For the person who wants a workout dress that doesn’t look like a workout dress, this one is for you. It features a slight cowl neckline and vertical seaming to help visually lengthen the silhouette. However, the real surprise is the low, strappy back that you never saw coming in a sports dress.

WHERE TO WEAR
This dress is perfect for low-impact activities—you’ll really appreciate its open back at a hot yoga class.
