• Lululemon Athletica

  1928 Broadway, 212-712-1767

  Lululemon (a recent Canadian import) is marketed as workout clothing, but it’s got enough style to pass muster at pretty much any weekend social occasion short of a sit-down dinner. It’s stretchy but cut with an eye to creating a flattering silhouette, even if you haven’t just come from two hours of Pilates. The pants section ($52 to $84) is conveniently divided into categories like “sweating” and “to and from.” The reversible bodysuit ($48) that goes from solid to polka dot is great for layering.
