Hitting the Gym in Geek Chic Style
Many geek fashion aficionados already know of Castle Corsetry’s amazing comics, sci-fi, and fantasy-inspired corsets. The corsets are made to order by designer and Castle Corsetry owner Lauren Bregman, and are perfect for many a cosplay and sexy, pin-up look. And you’ve definitely seen some of Lauren’s cosplay and commissioned work on various “Top 10” and “Best of…” lists. A line of sweat-wicking, ladies’ gym wear may seem left of center for a designer who specializes in historical costumes and corsets, but these aren’t your average grey-on-black-on-blah sport clothes.
With an emphasis on finding your inner hero, no matter your body type, Castle Corsetry’s designs come in a wide range of sizes, from XS to XXL. Want to channel your inner Harley Quinn when you hit the gym? There’s a look for that. Is Spider-Man more your jam? Castle Corsetry’s new line has got you covered. And what could possibly look more appropriate on a female power lifter than a Wonder Woman-inspired gym ensemble? Rhetorical question, of course.
The line’s launch includes capri leggings, tanks, and cropped tops made out of a combination of durable dry fit and spandex fabric. The leggings feature side pockets for convenience and are mid-rise so that there’s no need to worry about the butt version of a nip slip during deadlifts, yoga, and spin class. To highlight just how awesome Castle Corsetry’s gym wear looks on real, gym-going people, Lauren brought in models who aren’t just fabulous geek gals and cosplayers — they’re athletes and/or coaches at Nerd Strong Gym.
This new fitness line is designed for women, but that shouldn’t stop any nerdy guy who’s itching to get into those Deadpool leggings. Or turn the mermaid capris into merman capris, etc. The whole line is now available for purchase, along with an incredible selection of corsets and fabulous fashion leggings, at https://www.etsy.com/CastleCorsetry.
