[Hey Harper](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/standout-essentials), a brand that became popular due to its high-quality waterproof jewelry, has now expanded into the garment space with a brand-new [chic athleisure collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wintry-athletic-apparel). The aesthetic of the line is minimalist and the choice of materials, as well as the silhouettes prioritize comfort and performance, allowing the wearer to "feel confident while being active."

The chic athleisure garments are considered completely sweat-resistant, extremely practical, and soft against the skin. The collection was developed in Portugal and includes two [cropped body suits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khy-cotton-stretch) in Black and Purple, as well as two identical sets (leggings, shorts, a sports bra, and a long-sleeved crop top) available in Black and Baige colorways. The price range of Hey Harper's chic athleisure capsule is £50 - £99. Sizes are available from XS to XL.
