Breathe. Align. Engage. Sweat. Flow. Recover. Repeat.
If the new year had a dress code, this would be it.
H&M Move opens 2026 with a collection that doesn’t just dress the body, it tunes into a whole wellness rhythm. Inspired by hot Pilates studios, infrared saunas, cold plunges, and that unmistakable post-workout glow, The Wellness Edit is less about performance pressure and more about intentional movement. Think sculpted silhouettes, soft strength, and confidence that comes from feeling held, not restricted.
At the heart of it all is SculptMove™, H&M Move’s newest fabric innovation. Designed to sculpt, smooth, and enhance the body deeply, it supports without suffocating, encouraging comfort and confidence no matter how or why you move.
Wellness, but Make It ’90s Minimal
There’s a quiet nod to ’90s minimalism running through the collection: clean lines, refined shapes, and silhouettes that feel timeless rather than trend-chasing. The standout pieces do exactly what they promise: they work.
Flared and classic leggings feature a curve-accentuating deep-V back panel that subtly sculpts without screaming for attention. A cropped long-sleeve top with a square neckline brings elegance into the studio, while a sleek zip-up jacket blurs the line between warm-up layer and everyday essential. Scrunch-detail hot pants add a playful, body-aware edge, and new playsuits, tanks, and sports bras come finished with delicate yet supportive strappy backs.
The color palette keeps things grounded and elevated: ink black, ivory white, soft sand, and pomegranate, neutral, wearable, and quietly powerful.
“This collection is about glowing from the inside out, facing the future with purpose and power, and feeling excited,” says Marie Fredros, Head of Design at H&M Move. “We wanted to channel all the energy, anticipation and transformation that comes with starting a new year into pieces that will make you feel and look like the best version of yourself.”
And honestly? It shows.
Beyond Activewear: A Full Wellness Ritual
What sets The Wellness Edit apart is its holistic approach. This isn’t just about what you wear during the workout, it’s about everything before and after.
Coordinated accessories complete the ritual: hand and wrist weights in the same soft sand tone as the sets, a frosted translucent tote designed to hold your entire routine, and a non-slip mat towel made for hot Pilates sessions where grip is everything. There’s even a strappy one-piece swimsuit for post-class cold plunges and sauna moments, because recovery deserves style too.
The glow continues with waterproof, sweatproof jewellery that transitions seamlessly from studio to street, plus wellness-forward beauty tools like a metallic face roller, a gua sha facial sculptor, and a curated edit of fragrance and makeup from H&M Beauty. It’s practical, polished, and very much aligned with the idea that wellness is a lifestyle, not a checkbox.
The Takeaway
H&M Move’s Wellness Edit understands the modern relationship with movement: it’s personal, fluid, and deeply emotional. This collection doesn’t push perfection, it supports presence. It’s about feeling strong and soft, sculpted and relaxed, intentional and effortless.
The kind of activewear that makes you want to show up, for your workout, your routine, and yourself.
The Wellness Edit launches globally in selected stores and on hm.com from 30 December 2025.
