Decorated Olympian (and arguably one of the best athletes of all time) Simone Biles knows a thing or two about achieving your dreams — and her new partnership with Athleta Girl is the latest in her long line of accomplishments. “It has been a longtime dream of mine to create an athletic line, and the opportunity to design this collection for Athleta Girl is so special to me,” she said in a press release. Her brand new, limited-edition signature collection is a stunning mix of matte and shiny fabrics, powerful and uplifting colors, and bold chalk patterns that will have you wishing they came in adult sizes … but sorry, moms, this one’s for the kiddos.
“I want girls to feel inspired when they wear clothing in this collection, and for them to know that they can do anything they put their minds to,” Simone said of her designs, which she calls “cute and comfy.” Created for ages 6-12, every piece in the mix-and-match Simone Biles x Athleta Girl collab is full of iconic details, incorporating the affirmations that Simone herself uses daily (“Because I Can” and “The Floor is Yours” are just two of the empowering phrases).
Since her first design collaboration with Athleta quickly became the company’s most-viewed item within hours of its release, it was only natural that she partner with Athleta Girl for this amazing collection. Because if a powerhouse athlete like Simone Biles doesn’t know what a girl needs in activewear, who does?!
Check out these adorable pieces from the collection!
SB Chit Chat Capri
The Powervita™ fabric of these leggings is soft and supportive — and inside the waistband is a secret pocket to stash … well, whatever it is she wants to stash! Interior tags can be torn off easily for added comfort, and the adjustable draw-cord gives her room to grow.
SB Explore Tank
“The floor is yours” when you wear this breezy and confident tank! Lightweight and breathable, it’s made to coordinate perfectly with any other pieces in the Simone Biles x Athleta Girl Collection.
SB Shine Skort
This versatile skort has a built-in brief for added coverage (no worries about windy days here!) and a subtle reminder — “Because I Can” — written on the leg. But perhaps the best part: pockets!
SB Oversized Warm Up Sweatshirt
This sweatshirt is the perfect example of a classic done right — and made special by added details, like the pocket in front with secret phone storage, thumb holes to keep sleeves in place, and the “Because I Can” mantra on the inside of one arm.
SB Graphic Tunic
“No dream is too big or too small” — wise words to live by, or to have on the front of this super-soft shirt, which also features a graphic inspired by Simone Biles’ floor routine. It’s lightweight and provides UPF 50+ sun protection too!
SB Longline Bra
Featuring the same cute and chalky pattern as the Chit Chat Capri, this comfy tank features soft straps that won’t dig into her shoulders, and a “Because I Can” graphic and heart hand-drawn by Simone.
SB Shine Reversible Vest
This super-soft vest is reversible for two looks in one — it can be worn with either the matte or the shiny side out! Perfect for pairing with any of the other Simone Biles x Athleta Girl pieces, it’s an on-trend way to add an extra layer.
SB Warm Up Midi Sweat Short
With an interior pocket to hold the important stuff, these cozy and breathable shorts come in gray or yellow and feature cute and trendy details like shiny pockets, a logo draw-cord, and “The Floor is Yours” on the leg.
SB Bike Short
Made of the same Powervita™ fabric as the capri pants, with the same handy secret pocket in the waistband, these cute bike shorts will go with every piece in the collection.
Athleta Girl x Simone Biles In Your Element Hoodie
The piece that started it all! Simone Biles’ first collaborative effort with Athleta Girl, this hoodie — available in four colors — was an instant bestseller, and it isn’t any wonder why.
With so many cute mix-and-match pieces, the possibilities are limitless — much like the future of the girls who wear this fun and inspiring line.
