I built the community we couldn't find anywhere else - for women in perimenopause and menopause - who deserve activewear that actually works for the bodies we have now, not the bodies we're supposed to want, or used to have.
The activewear industry has spent decades designing for - and marketing to - younger bodies, 18 - 35 year olds. I got tired of searching for coverage that actually existed and reviews that reflected my real life. So I built Not So Skimpy.
The mature woman - in perimenopause or menopause - is one of the most overlooked consumers in fashion. She has money to spend, she knows exactly what she wants, and the industry keeps showing her sports bras designed for 22-year-olds.
Not So Skimpy exists to change that. We review, curate, and celebrate activewear that actually works for midlife bodies - with coverage, compression, and confidence built in. No apologies. No compromises. No skimpy.
"Coverage that empowers. Style that doesn't apologize."
Not So Skimpy is for any woman who has ever stood in a fitting room wondering why nothing fits the body she actually has. Specifically:
Hormonal changes, shifting weight, hot flashes, skin texture changes. We test for all of it.
Hysterectomy, mastectomy, cancer treatment, postpartum - you deserve activewear designed for healing.
Rapid weight loss leaves skin that needs real support. We know which fabrics and fits actually help.
Walking, hiking, gardening, studio, gym - whatever moves you. Coverage that comes along for the ride.
Join thousands of women who are done settling for activewear that wasn't built for them.
