FKA Twigs believes the body is art. Her summer 2025 partnership with On Running reinforces that notion.
The capsule is the first of its kind between Twigs and the Swiss sportswear brand. The partnership is meant to push boundaries while emphasizing the power of movement and self-expression, notions that Twigs seems to be all about. “I live a busy and varied life, often moving between training, meetings, and studio sessions in a single day. I wanted to create pieces that could move with me through those shifts – pieces that feel sensual and strong, and reflect all the different sides of who I am,” Twigs stated in a press release. “This capsule collection is about feeling confident in your body and free to express yourself – whether you’re dancing, creating, or just moving through your day.”
The collection was made available June 26 and is comprised of utilitarian pieces, likely inspired by Twigs’ own muted wardrobe. You’ve got everything from low-impact sports bras to buttery soft skorts and a collaborative sneaker, the Cloud x FKA. Each piece is athleisure-inspired and designed to move in harmony with the body. The capsule also includes a slew of accessories, from cropped caps to hooded scarfs that scream Eusexua. In celebration of the capsule’s drop, we’re rounding up a few of our faves for you to shop now on On Running’s website.
FKA Twigs x On Running Cloud X FKA Sneaker in Lily
A collaborative sneaker with FKA Twigs and On Running.
This sneaker is like stepping on a cloud. It’s springy and flexible, cushioning the wearer’s feet for everyday wear. Retailing for $180.00, this unisex shoe is made of a mixture of recycled polyester and synthetic suede that transitions into breathable mesh paneling and On Running’s CloudTec, a cushioning system that absorbs shock for a soft underfoot and a bouncy feel with every step. Finally, bright contrasting red open mesh tongues give way to rubber tread that gives the sneaker a non-slip finish.
This sneaker, like many pieces in this capsule, is inspired by movement, specifically dance. Thanks to this, the shoe is flexible, reflecting the artistic movement of a ballerina. Speaking of, the extended lacing featured on this model can be laced up the ankles, creating a ballet shoe-esque look. We love the Lily colorway because of the contrasting pops of color. If that isn’t your thing, the Cloud x FKA also comes in a monochrome Black or Desert, a khaki color.
Made for all-day style and comfort, this Track Skort is the perfect example of form meets function. You’ve got a flirty mini skirt exterior in a khaki-colored hue and inner briefs that offer extra support and comfort. The elasticized waist further emphasizes comfort. You can easily style this piece in a multitude of ways. It can transform from sporty to casual in an instant with the right accessorizing. We can picture this skort worn during a stint on the treadmill sweating up a storm, styled alongside a khaki-colored bodysuit or sports bra. For a less sporty moment, the skirt could be styled with ballet flats and a bow-laden blouse to grab a coffee.
A low-impact sports bra in white and red with black trim.
Whether it be for workouts or everyday wear, a good sports bra will get you far. This Studio Bra is made of smooth and flexible fabric that moves how you move. Additionally, this piece is low-cut and form-fitted. The bra is fixed with soft, lightweight padding for comfort along with mesh paneling at the back for breathability. The Lily style is our favorite because it features subtle but impactful details like red contrast stitching. Finally, the piece is rounded out with a branded FKA Twigs under band elastic, offering a subtle nod to the collab. If the Lily isn’t your thing, this sports bra also comes in monochrome Black.
These pants were made for the club and beyond. These loose pants come in Black and Cinder | Desert, two neutral colorways that can easily be styled in a number of ways. The fit is relaxed with wide legs, adjustable drawstring closures and an elasticized waist. You’ve also got statment-making details like contrasting stitching and wide pockets that contrast the casual nature, offering the piece dimension.
These pants are meant to sit low on the hips, imparting a sort of “streetwear” vibe that meshes well with Twigs’ personal style. To style, we’d likely wear these with something more fitted on top to offset the baggy silhouette. We’re thinking something like a bra top or cropped tee. To play on the sportswear look, we’d pair these with sneakers in colorful hues, bringing life to the otherwise neutral trousers.
This piece is exceptionally comfortable. It’s insulated for colder climates and comes in a skin-tight fit that works to accommodate the body’s movements. The stretch fabric is fixed with unique red contrasting stitching that transitions into thumb holes and an open boatneck neckline, two stylistic details that give the top a fashionable flair. For those intense workouts, this top is also moisture-wicking. We love the Lily colorway for its contrasting detailing, but the Cinder | Desert and Black colorways are great too.
