Why Oprah and Gwyneth Paltrow Love This Half-Zip — and It’s Almost 40% Off
Stars Embrace Spanx’s AirEssentials Collection Amid Major Discounts
Spanx’s AirEssentials collection, particularly the Half-Zip style, is gaining significant attention from celebrities and consumers alike. As the brand offers substantial discounts—currently 39% off during its End of Season Sale—the collection’s popularity skyrockets, making it a sought-after item among high-profile figures.
Oprah Winfrey has touted the AirEssentials Half-Zip and the matching Wide Leg Pants in her annual "Favorite Things" list multiple times. She described the fabric as the "most comfortable" she has ever worn, expressing her enthusiasm in her 2023 roundup: “Wow. Wow. Wow. May I tell you I got this set last year? I wore it in a photo shoot for ‘O Quarterly’ and never looked back.”
In previous years, Winfrey praised the brand’s ability to create "fantastic comfy clothes," noting that the fabric feels "like buttah."
The allure of the AirEssentials collection isn’t limited to Oprah. Celebrities such as Gwyneth Paltrow—who has been spotted in at least two colors of the Half-Zip—Reese Witherspoon, and Karlie Kloss have all showcased their love for the style in casual appearances. Paltrow has even described her fondness for Spanx’s workout clothing as “weirdly very into.”
The AirEssentials Half-Zip, along with its complementary styles, boasts a variety of colors from bold red to versatile olive. The sale includes seven different shades, catering to diverse tastes and preferences.
Adding a personal touch, one editor noted, "having tried it myself, I can attest the fabric is truly oh-so-soft."
Current markdowns on the Spanx site include a range of items beyond the AirEssentials collection, encompassing everything from occasion-worthy dresses to sculpting jeans and faux leather leggings. As the year draws to a close, these deals create a sense of urgency, inviting shoppers to take advantage of the discounts before they disappear.
As Spanx continues to attract both celebrities and everyday consumers alike with styles that blend comfort and sophistication, the popularity of the AirEssentials collection is a testament to the brand’s influence in contemporary fashion.
