No matter how you spin it, Athleta embodies effortless, rich mom style that goes from the Pilates studio to brunch with the girls. I you thought the retailer is all about work and no play, you’ve got it wrong. And this just in: The retailer dropped a brand new fall collection for 2026, and it’s a treasure trove of comfortable, polished and understated pieces that we’ll be living in way past November.
The fresh fall 2026 drop has everything you need to look like a cool A-lister, while feeling like you’re wearing pajamas. It’s all thanks to the high-end details, sumptuously soft fabrics and flattering designs that are practically made for women of all ages, shapes and sizes. We love the inclusivity! Plus, some picks below are already loved by Us Weekly shopping editors — they just come in new fall shades to get you in the PSL mood.
Editor’s Picks: Athleta Fall 2026 Collection
1. Our Favorite: Dreamy pants that feel like loungewear yet look upscale? Yes, please! These new Dream Drape mid-rise pants flow nicely on the body and are so soft, you won’t want to take ’em off.
2. Laid-Back Ease: Errand runs, school drop-off and farmer’s market strolls should all be done while wearing this breezy maxi dress. The white piping gives it an athletic appeal that’s similar to pieces celebs like Dakota Johnson wear on repeat.
3. Game Changer: You don’t need to love pickleball to adore this high-rise skort. The sporty-looking piece is ideal for the court and the supermarket. Plus, shopping editors who have this exact style wore it to the U.S Open (and will wear them again with tights come fall).
4. Same But Different: Love the above skort but want an extra feminine touch? Opt for this plissé option that gives off major tennis vibes. It’s made with a cotton blend that provides a lightweight, breathable feel every time you wear it.
5. Rich Mom: V-neck sweaters can look so frumpy, and then you realize sleek styles like this Athleta option actually exist. The newly launched pick features Tencel fabric that’s soft to the touch, and an oversized fit that’s unbelievably comfy.

6. Designer-Inspired: Can you believe such a chic midi dress is hiding at Athleta? Truthfully, we so can. It looks just like a designer style hanging in a high-end store . . . and right now, it’s on sale for Labor Day.
7. Instant Upgrade: You’ll be wearing jeans constantly soon enough, and these Brooklyn ankle pants will break up the cycle. Made with stretchy, wrinkle-resistant fabric, these pants move with ease. They’re so elevated, you can even wear them to work.
8. Cozy-Chic: Sweatpants may be a no-go in public, but when they look this chic, we’re willing to bend the rules. The creamy shade feels especially mod, especially when styled with a slimming top and Adidas à la Jessica Alba.
9. Editor-Approved: Saying that these Salutation Stash leggings are a must-have for HIIT workouts, coffee runs and beyond is an understatement. This shopping editor slips on these leggings every chance she gets; they’re buttery smooth, sculpting and super flattering. Bonus: They have pockets!
10. Anything But Basic: Boring tops have no place in your closet. This skin-tight tee is the upgrade you didn’t know you needed, thanks to the lightweight feel, soft material and cut-out back that shows off your strappy bra. Yes, this is a tried-and-true pick, too.
11. Pilates Princess: The flared leg on these Elation high-rise pants gives the style a super trendy look that all the rich moms are grabbing up. Pair that with the warm fall-ready truffle hue, and you’re ready for sweater weather.
12. Mix and Match: Is this a workout top or a daytime shirt? Honestly, it’s both! Made with a light, compression design, the mock-neck top is what sporty gal dreams are made of.
13. Comfort MVP: Travel days, movie nights and everything in between call for cozy sweaters that feel like a warm blanket. This classic crewneck sweatshirt got the memo (and matches perfectly with the above sweatpants)!
