Sézane is launching activewear and you can now look Parisian when working out

If you're always looking to add a touch of French woman style to all aspects of your life, you'll be pleased to hear you can now apply that to the gym, because cult brand Sézane has now branched out into activewear.

The capsule's name, EPS 'Education Philosophique et Spotif', is a nod to French equivalent of a school gym class, and features 23 leisurewear pieces in 100% recycled or eco-friendly materials (some t-shirts are made of 100% organic cotton), made entirely in the European Union.

Forget everything you think you know about activewear, because this offering is much more stylish than the usual you'd find in sports shops, and is wonderfully retro and full of great silhouettes and pretty motifs.

There are classics with a twist, such as leggings in floral prints, sports bras with minimalist lines and sweaters with frilled necklines, and although the collection is great for working out (there is a t-shirt with moisture absorbing technology), it is mostly about supporting your lifestyle.

Sézane founder Morgane explains, 'This collection is about pieces you can move and feel good in. Weekend yoga, a walk with friends that turns into a coffee, even a long flight. We wanted to design pieces that you can throw on without thinking & really live in.'

The leisurewear collection is available to buy from today in store and online. Prices start at £40.
