We all know today's models are athleisure's leading ladies and that they have workout plans challenging enough for even the most energetic Olympians, but there are few industry girls who have employed this wealth of experience into the world of designing their own exercise gear. That's why we were excited to hear that Dutch model Daphne Groeneveld—who has walked and starred in campaigns for everyone from H&M to Tom Ford and Dior—was dipping her toe in thanks to a collaboration with the highly successful Amsterdam-based casual-wear label Zoe Karssen. "I met Zoe last year through a mutual friend and we really hit it off," Daphne tells us. "When Zoe had the idea to collaborate, I was so excited! It seemed like an ideal partnership and I’m so pleased with the collection we produced together."
We spoke to Daphne to learn how our exercise regimes and kits can be that little bit more sophisticated. Scroll down to read our interview and shop from her activewear collection…
