If there were an “it girl” for 2026, it would likely be Hailey Bieber. From her make-up, to street style, the supermodel and founder of Rhode is the ultimate muse. Inspired by her effortless style, Adanola has announced a collection with Bieber, which the Manchester-based brand says draws on Bieber’s love of ballet.
Ballet has long been a source of inspiration in the fashion industry. From Coco Chanel designing the costumes worn by the Ballet Russes in the 1920s, to the popularisation of ballet flats by former Vogue editor Diana Vreeland to and Carrie Bradshaw’s iconic tutu in the opening credits of Sex and the City, the silhouettes, fabrics and styles seen on stage have made their way into our wardrobes.
More recently, “balletcore” has had a resurgence after Miu Miu’s ballet flats feature in its autumn/winter 22 show, with designers Sandy Liang, Cecilie Bahnsen, Simone Rocha, as well as high street brands such as M&S and Mango, following suit.

Now, Hailey Bieber has designed a collection with athleisure brand Adanola, which has used the rehearsal studio as its source of inspiration. A taste of how Bieber personally styles dance looks, the 23-piece collection features V-neck tops, shorts, tanks in soft pastels, as well as yoga pants with a fold over waist, a cropped mohair jacket and lilac leg warmers – all key trends dominating balletcore today.
There’s also outwear in the form of a ruched jacket, a beige zippered knit and a fleece in blue and pink – plus a bag for your work-out essentials.
The collection that “moves seamlessly from workout wear to streetwear,” according to Bieber, went live yesterday (15 October) on Adanola’s website. If you missed the drop, pieces are selling out quickly, but there are still some items available to shop.
Adanola knit bolero
The ultimate ballet-inspired layer, you can still shop the knit bolero. The short sleeves and tie fastening make it a delicate piece to elevate workout looks and the mohair blend feels fashion-forward.

Adanola crop sleeve V-neck top
The crop sleeve V-neck top is proving popular but there are some sizes left in the denim blue colourway. The sleeve length feels inspired, and details such as the yellow binding, criss-cross back and V-neck cut make this piece ultra stylish.

Adanola rib knit leg warmers
Straight from the ballet studio, the Adanola rib knit leg warmers scream balletcore. In a dark dusty mauve, they are crafted from 92 per cent wool, so I expect they would be very warming over leggings or on bare legs.

Adanola fold-over gathered yoga pants
If you’re searching for fashion-forward yoga attire, meet the Adanola fold-over gathered yoga pants from the Hailey Bieber collection. The brand says the fabric is soft and comfortable, making the pants a comfy choice outside of the gym, too, while the fold-over waist band is a flattering addition.
