Overview

Fabletics is an online women's athletic wear retailer (they call the clothing "athleisure wear"). Fabletics launched in 2013 and was co-founded by the actress Kate Hudson and since then have opened a number of brick-and-mortar stores in the United States.

At the beginning of every month Fabletics will send out an email showcasing the new looks and styles in active wear and outfits that have come out and are for sale. Fabletics sells all types of clothing and accessories including those for Yoga, Running, the Gym, and Swimming.

Memberships at Fabletics to purchase clothing are free but to get savings of up to 50% on clothing (off regular prices) a VIP Membership is required. A VIP Membership is free as well but you will be charged a $49.95 store credit every month (which accumulates). This store credit charge can be skipped for the month if the member logs into their Fabeltics account by the 5th of the month and select "Skip the Month" on their account.
