Fashion is still about comfort and cozy in 2021.

Gone are the days (for now at least) when we dressed up in straight-up high fashion. Now, most of us are embracing a slew of pieces that provide comfort, function, and style.

From period-proof workout clothes to soft and air-like sandals, brands are making it easier for us to move freely and truly feel good in what we wear. Below, check out the latest collections that launched in June.

Adidas

You never have to quit exercising or sports just because of your period anymore because Adidas just came out with tights that are made for your red days. The TechFit Period Proof tights features a technology called the Flow Sheild, which contains an absorbent layer that helps prevent leaks. This pair, which was two years in the making, is part of adidas' long-term Watch Us Move campaign, "a commitment to revolutionising its product offering and services to better support the needs of its diverse female community."

The collection is available worldwide from June 15 on adidas.com.ph, in stores and via the adidas app.

Uniqlo

Uniqlo's UT Collection with Australian artist Cassie Byrnes will bring sunshine to your gloomy days. Known for her "abstract exploration of native flora and fauna in vivid primary colors," Byrnes is bringing her designs to ladies' shirts, shorts, and dresses. The collection features her signature patterns as well as new ones that are specially-designed for Uniqlo. Byrnes talks about the collection as "deeply personal," with each having "their own story and have been created during different times in my life." "I take my inspiration for the natural environment around me as well as extensive studies into the prehistoric landscape of Australia when it was part of Gondwana millions of years ago," she said in a statement.
