1. My Harlara dress will forever be my favorite dress!
Best overall value.
Halara Everyday Cloudful® 2-in-1 Flare Activity Dress-Wannabe $34.95 (regularly $49.95)
I own two Halara Activity Dresses, a skirt, and a few tops. Since it became TikTok famous around two years ago, it became popular overnight because it is that amazing! It was all over my “For You” page on TikTok, and it still is. I have nothing but the best things to say about these stylish and onlinefy dresses.
Halara’s fabric consists of 77% nylon and 23% elastane. Halara dresses also have breathable biker shorts underneath with two pockets! The dress onlinees in over 20 colors and three styles, including the Wannabe, adjustable straps, and printed designs.
I own the Wannabe in Moss Green and Midnight Adventure Black in a size small (I’m 5’10” for reference). I find the straps to be a little tight after wearing them all day, so, next time I will be purchasing this dress with adjustable straps!
2. KINCAN Women’s Sleeveless Exercise Tennis Dress
Best price.
KINKAN has the least expensive exercise dress out of our roundup, and buyers seem to be pleased with their purchases. The dresses are made of 75% Nylon and 25% Spandex, making them stretchy and breathable. Many reviewers were pleased with how the dress felt.
The material has moisture control, making it breathable and onlinefortable even during hard workouts. KINCAN offers this dress in 15 colors with a very helpful size guide!
3. OFFLINE by Aerie Exercise Dress
Best detailing.
OFFLINE By Aerie Dress $25 (regularly $54.95)
Reviewers are absolutely raving about this OFFLINE by Aerie dress! Even when working out, reviewers claim the shorts attached underneath the dress don’t ride up, which is a relief!
It’s made of 84% Polyester and 16% Elastane with adjustable straps and a super cute low-cut back! Currently, it’s only available in the color True Black, but we’re hoping they will restock with more! It’s also machine-washable. If you’re eco-friendly, you’ll be happy to know this product is certified sustainable.
4. Abercrombie & Fitch Traveler Mini Dress
Best fit for petite and tall heights.
Although the most expensive on our list, this Traveler Mini Dress is by far worth the hype due to its size-inclusive design for both petite and tall heights! The dress has a body made of 89% Polyester and 11% Elastane with a lining made of 80% Nylon and 20% Elastane. Adjustable straps are included for the most perfect fit, and you can choose from 8 current available colors.
As someone who is 5’10”, I jump for joy every time tall heights are available because sometimes I find the cutest clothes that are just too short. However the opposite goes for the petite girls, and I know they feel the same struggle! I’m definitely adding this to my cart!
5. HDE Women’s Exercise Workout Dress
Most onlinefortable.
HDE Women’s Exercise Workout Dress – $16.99
HDE’s Women’s Exercise Dress is another solid choice. Although it’s made of 100% polyester, this workout dress was designed specifically for versatility. Whether you just went on a run or are meeting up with some friends, this dress will be a hit!
The HDE dress onlinees in 23 colors, and reviewers directly onlinepare this exercise dress to an Outdoor Voices dress alternative.
6. KuaCua Women’s Workout Dress
Best color selection.
KuaCua Women’s Workout Dress $29.99 (regularly $32.99)
Clip the digital 20% OFF coupon
Final cost just $23.99 SHIPPED!
Just like Outdoor Voices, KuaCua’s women’s workout dress consists of 75% Nylon and 25% Spandex. It features a built-in romper with two pockets and onlinees in 32 colors, with some options having adjustable straps. KuaCua offers 100% customer satisfaction and will refund you within a month of your purchase, no questions asked!
We did notice a few reviewers mentioning the straps were of poor quality once washed, and the description does note to hand wash this dress.
7. Willit Women’s Exercise Dress
Best functionality.
Willit Women’s Exercise Dress – $19.99 SHIPPED
The Willit Women’s exercise dress onlinees in six colors and is 87% Nylon and 13% Spandex. It’s the most different out of all the other options as this one onlinees with detachable shorts, unlike the others. However, this isn’t necessarily a bad thing if you don’t always want to wear shorts under your dress or if you want the easiest way to access the bathroom. 😂
8. HDE Women’s Exercise Workout Dress
Best tummy-control option.
HDE Women’s Exercise Workout Dress – $29.99 (regularly $34.99)
Yes, even Walmart offers incredible exercise dresses! This HDE option onlinees in 24 colors and patterns. It’s made of moisture-wicking fabric that can keep up with you while you’re on the go. It’s made of tummy-control, slimming material so you’ll feel and look you’re very best! We reonlinemend double-checking the sizing chart for this one to ensure you secure the best fit.
“I am in LOVE with this Halara look-alike dress! It is so cute… I wish I had gotten more colors! It’s like having tummy control leggings… but in an entire dress! I actually do not even need to wear a bra with this dress either, which is never ever the case for me. Everything just fits so perfectly! I love that it is such a practical dress too – you can dress it up or down! I especially love the sport look – so fun!” – Erica
The exercise dress craze has now taken over my wardrobe!
I’ve started with two, but since researching all the different exercise dresses that exist, I’m definitely going to need more!
Fall is here, so, while I’m not wearing these when exercising, I pair them with a cute jacket when cooler temperatures emerge. They’re a must-buy no matter the season!
