Psst: Word on the street is that a lululemon fan favorite is back and better than ever. No, I’m not talking about the viral belt bag that has established itself as a TikTok sensation, or the mini canvas tote that shoppers can't stop talking about lately. Rather, I'm referring to the super cute and sporty lululemon Align dress ($148), which has made its triumphant return in a slew of new colors just in time for a Tenniscore (or Pickleball) summer. The slim-fitting style launched in 2023 and quickly became a viral must-have thanks to its soft Nulu fabric (the same one used for the brand's famous Align leggings), built-in shorts liner and flattering fit, which provides plenty of flexibility and movement while complementing your curves.

Per the brand, the dress offers medium support at the bust thanks to a built-in shelf bra, with sizes 0 to 14 fitting B/C cups, and sizes 16 to 20 supporting D/DD cups. The overall fit is constructed to provide four-way stretch, making it a great choice for low- to medium-impact activities like pickleball and yoga. Beyond its roomy drop-in pockets, the shorts liner is also brilliantly designed with an open-back waistband that allows for easy on-and-off during bathroom breaks (genius!).

Now if you’re anything like me, you've definitely gotten spoiled over the years by all the fashion girlies on TikTok actually showing off clothes in motion. Luckily, plenty of them are proud owners of the Align dress, so I didn’t have to search too hard for user @halibeard's video in hers below. Spoiler alert: It looks even better *IRL.*

Still not convinced you need this athletic frock in your life? Just take it from this shopper who recently made the splurge. “So, so cute!! I’m 7 weeks postpartum and usually wear a size 6/8 in lululemon. I ordered a size 8 this time around and it fits pretty great! Not too tight but not loose. It’s breathable and I can pull down the top if I need to nurse. Really, really love it!” Another happy reviewer adds, "Great looking dress for summer! The bright pink is sharp on and off the tennis court." (Indeed, it's perfect for that post-workout brunch or coffee run.)

Something tells me that it won’t be too long before this dress is out of stock again, so I would make my move now if I were you. With so many fun colors to choose from—and an under-$150 price tag—this chic piece is definitely worth buying in doubles.
