Varley Free Soft Selma Bra Top in Black

Supportive, soft and considerably too good-looking to hide under a T-shirt.

The Varley FreeSoft™ Selma Bra Top in Black is one of those brilliantly useful pieces that makes activewear feel altogether more considered. Made in Varley’s beautifully soft FreeSoft™ fabric, it has that smooth, second-skin feel that makes you understand very quickly why people become slightly obsessed with it.

Clean, minimal and black—naturally—the Selma works as a workout bra, a base layer or simply as part of an easy off-duty look.

Because sometimes the best outfits start with really good underwear and go from there.

Why it made the cut

• FreeSoft™ has that beautifully soft, barely-there feel against the skin.
• The clean silhouette feels modern rather than overtly sporty.
• Black means maximum wear and minimum thought.
• Brilliant worn alone or layered under zip-through tops, shirts and sweatshirts.
• It’s exactly why we wanted Varley at BWD—activewear that understands you’re not spending your entire day in a gym.

How we’d wear it…

With the Varley FreeSoft™ High Rise Leggings and Tayah Zip Through Midlayer for a sleek all-black set, or with The Cargo Pant 25″, an oversized white shirt and trainers when you’re heading somewhere other than a workout.

And for travel? Leggings, Selma, oversized knit, Lasson Belt Bag.

Comfort levels: extremely high. Effort levels: pleasingly low.

Care

Wash on a cool, gentle cycle with similar colours. Avoid fabric softener, which can affect performance fabrics, and air dry naturally rather than tumble drying where possible. Always follow the garment care label.

If we’re wearing activewear beyond the gym—and we absolutely are—it needs to earn its place in the outfit. This does.
