Fabletics is a monthly fitness apparel subscription co-founded by Kate Hudson, which includes a plus size line of their fashionable workout gear! You can shop their line in two different ways—either you can shop through their regular store or sign up as a VIP member. The VIP Membership works like this:

  • Take the Fabletics quiz, which will let the company know your size, style, and fitness needs.
  • Each month, Fabletics will curate looks that match your preferences. According to the website, outfits start at $24.00 for new members. (I’m not sure if “new members” refers to just your first order, though.)
  • Shop those looks at 40-50% off what you’d get just paying retail, or skip the month. You have to make your decision by the 5th of the month. If you do neither, the $49.95 monthly membership fee will be saved to your account as a credit, which you can put towards other outfits later.
  • As you shop, you’ll also earn points that can be applied to accessories and other cool fitness essentials.

Unlike a lot of other subscription boxes, you are not automatically sent a package each month. You have to go into your account and either decide to add items to your card or skip it. Subscriptions can be canceled at any time, though you do have to call into Fabletics customer service to do it.

FYI, COVID-19 Update: 

Ready, Set, Ship: Our shipping times are now 100% back to normal & select retail stores have reopened, but health & safety is still our top priority. Read more here.

My Subscription Addiction paid for this box. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes).

Fabletics Plus Size May 2020 Review

 

Included with my Fabletics order was a standard, itemized statement. No coupons were included in this month's delivery.

 

Mila Midi Medium Impact Sports Bra in Meru (Aerobic Outfit Set), Size 3x — Retail Value $49.95, VIP Price $39.95 (VIP Outfit Bundle Rate $124.90, VIP Price $69.95, VIP Redeemed Points Discount Price $59.95)

If you have been reading my reviews for the last three years, you probably picked up on one thing about me: I live, love, and breathe leopard print. That being said, you know that I high tailed this outfit into my virtual shopping cart and bought it quicker than you could say PURRfect! Good thing I did, because this outfit sold out rather quickly! Phew!

Now, some folks feel that leopard print is too bold and dare I say it,  tacky-- but I must disagree. It is a neutral and pairs with essentially everything and anything! Leopard print is iconic and this workout ensemble is just that as well! The beauty of this set, though, is its versatility. Certainly, the set looks phenomenal together, but the sports bra could be worn with solid teal or red leggings. The leopard leggings will look awesome with a black sports bra and tank. You aren't paying for one workout ensemble-- nope, that $69.95 price tag will go towards multiple gym looks, my friends! What a value!

The Mila sports bra is one of my favorites Fabletics offers as well. I prefer the high impact styles, but this midi offers great security and it is comfortable to wear. Though I am no longer bouncing around the elliptical since my gym is closed, I have been trying to take walks a couple of times a week! My neighborhood is rather hilly and even on my strolls and jogs, I never feel as though I am going to come out of this sports bra. It has loads of stretch and has that trademark Mila cell phone pocket on the back! I love it!

 

Mila High-Waisted Pocket Capri in Meru (Aerobic Outfit Set), Size 3x — Retail Value $64.95, VIP Price $49.95 (VIP Outfit Bundle Rate $124.90, VIP Price $69.95, VIP Redeemed Points Discount Price $59.95)

Just like the sports bra; I absolutely adore the matching leggings! The leggings, in Fabletics tradition, provide ample compression-- but are incredibly comfortable to wear! I appreciate the high waist on these as well! I also love the inside pocket where you can store a key or cards securely. I actually used it on one of my late-night neighborhood strolls with my cousin. I forgot my belly bag, but there was no need with that hidden pocket compartment! I also love the mesh side pockets, too. I was able to easily fit a face mask in either of them for safe keeping. I know I will get a ton of wear from this gym outfit, but also will wear these leggings a bunch for errands. Don't be surprised if you see me at Costco, with these leggings and an old band shirt on, filling my cart with cases of seltzer!

Verdict: Well, Fabletics definitely delivered on the bold print I was yearning for-- did you guys read my mind? Or better yet, my reviews? Seriously, though, this set is up there as one of my all-time favorites! I might even need to get the matching shorts as well, that is how obsessed I am with this set!

Fabletics has been knocking it out of the park recently with all the bright, flashy, and incredibly stylish sets they have been offering! In addition to upping their game on prints, color palettes, and styles in plus sizes, they have also broadened their size range to a 4x. This happened months ago, but I still want to scream it from the mountain tops, guys! However, as major as this might be, it is still just a small step in the right direction. Certainly, I am pleased to see the brand being more inclusive, but I do hope they ensure to be even more so by offering 5x and 6x pieces someday. I just want to see well made, high-quality activewear offered to all sizes. I want to be able to tell my friends that are a size 5 or 6x that they can get the same Fabletics gear I have on in their size too!

I must say too, not only are the outfits on point, but Fabletics' rewards program is fantastic as well. Their program allows you to redeem points for discounts, free items, and also offers various sales exclusive for VIP members only! I used some of my rewards points this month to save $10 on my outfit-- pretty neat, right?

I am not sure how this May ensemble can be topped, but I am eager to see Fabletics try with their June selections, aren't you?

Can you still get this box if you sign up today? This set sadly sold out super quickly, but there are tons of other fun styles to explore! Sign up here to nab other plus size workout gear from Fabletics.

Value Breakdown: The Aerobics Outfit retails for $124.90 with a VIP bundle rate of $69.95, but I also used my $10 VIP Rewards discount as well for extra savings!  That means I saved a grand total of $64.95 which is roughly a 52% savings! That’s an awesome value!

I’m loving this print! Im a H in bras and I’m always scared to order bra based on 3x I prefer the number and the letter. Lol! Do you find that the bras fit and support good?
