Between the holiday feasting, festive films and long summer break, it’s arguably the best time of the year. And to make things just that little bit sweeter, lululemon have just dropped their latest collection and oh, boy are we excited to fulfill those New Year’s fitness resolutions.
Synonymous for their quality garments, sleek designs that go beyond the gym and *that* butt-lifting jacket, there’s good reason why lululemon has gained cult status over the years. So from the new Shine fabric of their iconic Align legging to their best-selling Scuba oversized hoodie, here are our Women’s Health-approved favourite looks from lululemon’s Holiday 2024 drop.

The best new lululemon activewear
lululemon’s famous Align leggings are reimagined in a ribbed dark shiny fabric. It features all the same goodness like the sweat-wicking Nulu fabric, four-way stretch for every kind of exercise, a comfortable waistband, all in a fun and snazzy colourway.
The Bend This sports bra (in a new colourway, might we just add), is designed for a smaller chest. Fitting A to C cups, it’s made from super soft and stretchy fabric to move with you, and is lined with that buttery iconic Nulu material for an added bonus.
High intensity cardio, hot yoga, outdoor tennis… The Sculpt Tank Top has been specifically designed with mesh fabric panels for extra breathability during sweaty workouts. It skims off the body so there’s none of that uncomfortable sticking. Plus it’s super lightweight for every kind of exercise.
The best new lululemon loungewear
Prefer a roomier look? We love the look of this new Scuba jacket, now in an oversized fit. The boxier cut in the same soft and cozy fabric means a more casual vibe you can easily wear from the gym to the coffee shop. It even has the same clever details like the interior car sleeve and zipper pull that’s actually a secret hair tie.
No, lululemon doesn’t just do activewear. This gorgeous slimming maxi dress is an entire outfit on its own. It features thin spaghetti straps in a figure-hugging fabrication that holds you in at all the right places. And there’s no need to wear a bra as there’s a shelf bra sewn right into the dress.
A more refined take on a regular pair of running shoes, the Cityverse Sneaker now comes in a fresh new colourway. Without skimping on either style or comfort, it features an all-white look. It’s a great versatile shoe you can take for long walks to quick ducks to the shops and everything in between.
The best new lululemon accessories
You’re guaranteed to spot your bag with this fresh new colour. Expect the same water-repellent fabric, adjustable strap and zipped pockets to keep everything tucked away. Aptly named ‘Iridescent’, you’ll see a glow of pinks, blues and purples as the bag hits the light at different angles.
Just like the Everywhere Belt Bag, the Dual Pouch Wristlet similarly comes in the new iridescent colourway. It features two little zippered pouches for smaller items like keys, lip gloss and some hair ties. Wear it around the wrist or make use of all the clips and rings to stash them inside a larger bag.
Fit your keys and airpods in one, or a couple of cards and a pair of sunnies in the other with this Dual-Pouch Sling that can be worn in a multitude of ways. The removable and adjustable shoulder straps means you can wear it cross body or attached to a larger bag, while the clips, rings and utility loops give you endless versatility for hands-free mobility.
Why is lululemon called ‘lululemon’?
The name lululemon has no real meaning. According to interviews with the founder, Chip Wilson, he chose the name as it had multiple ‘L’s which he understood was difficult for Japanese buyers to pronounce. It was a way to make the brand appear more westernised to these shoppers.
Is lululemon Australian?
No, lululemon is not Australia, it is actually a Canadian brand. However it has become widely popular over here. There are currently brick and mortar stores in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Canberra and Perth.
Who is the owner of lululemon?
Businessman and investor Chip Wilson founded lululemon in 1998 in Vancouver, Canada.
