Best Pilates Sets
(2026): Ranked & Tested

Alo's Airbrush set is the default choice in boutique reformer studios across New York, Los Angeles, and London — and for good reason. The matching legging and bra combination is engineered as a coordinated system: the high-waist legging sits perfectly at the waist regardless of the bra style, the fabric weight is consistent across both pieces, and the colourways are designed to complement rather than merely match. The medium-weight compression fabric supports without restricting breath, which is particularly important in exercises like the hundred and long-box series. The sports bra component offers enough coverage and support for a full reformer session without requiring a separate layer.

The Lululemon Align set pairs the iconic Align High-Rise Pant with the Free to Be Bra or Energy Bra, and the result is the softest coordinated Pilates outfit available at any price point. The Nulu fabric's near-weightless quality is immediately apparent in movement — there's no fabric resistance through hip flexion, spinal rotation, or the deep stretches of the full Pilates repertoire. The set is available in a comprehensive range of neutral and seasonal colourways, and the pieces can be purchased individually to build multiple combinations. A wardrobe investment that justifies itself across hundreds of studio sessions.

Sweaty Betty's Power set — pairing the Power Legging with the Power Bra — is the strongest choice for practitioners who need extended sizing or inseam length. The legging is available up to a 31-inch inseam, making it one of the few premium options that genuinely works for tall practitioners, and the brand's size range extends to an inclusive 3XL across both pieces. The PowerForm fabric is firmer and more compressive than Nulu or Airlift, providing a different type of support that many practitioners prefer for the proprioceptive feedback during standing footwork and balance exercises. The UK heritage brand has earned its global reputation.

Vuori's Halo set prioritises breathability above all else — the lightweight Performance fabric moves moisture away from the skin faster than any other set on this list, making it the preferred choice for heated studios and warm-climate practitioners. The fabric is lighter and less compressive than Alo or Sweaty Betty, but it is completely opaque and provides a clean, streamlined aesthetic appropriate for any studio environment. The Halo Bra has a clean cross-back construction that doesn't interfere with scapular movement during stabilisation exercises, and both pieces are available in Vuori's characteristic muted, nature-inspired colourway palette.

Girlfriend Collective's Compressive Set — pairing their Compressive High-Rise Legging with the Paloma Bra — is the most environmentally considered option in premium Pilates apparel. Both pieces are made from recycled post-consumer materials, and the brand maintains exceptional transparency about its supply chain. The compressive fabric provides firm, supportive coverage suitable for reformer work, and the Paloma Bra's removable cups offer adaptable support. The brand's inclusive sizing runs XXS to 6XL, and the consistently thoughtful colourway releases have built a loyal following among practitioners who want to align their studio wardrobe with broader values.

CRZ YOGA's Naked Feeling set offers the most compelling price-to-quality ratio in coordinated Pilates apparel. The legging and bra are sold as a matched set with consistent fabric, colour, and sizing — the coordination is genuine rather than incidental. The Naked Feeling fabric approaches the Align's softness at a fraction of the price, with four-way stretch and complete opacity through the deepest movements of the Pilates repertoire. For practitioners who are new to the method, building a wardrobe, or simply unwilling to spend £170+ on a two-piece outfit, this set is the starting point.
