Andrea Lucas, the founder of local barre chain Barre & Soul, is dipping her (pointed) toes into the athleisure world.

Barre & Soul’s five locations will now carry an eponymous clothing line created by Lucas and a former designer from Nasty Gal, Revolve, and other contemporary brands. Everything is made in Los Angeles, using ethically sourced and recycled materials.

In a blog post, Lucas says the line is inspired by “our community, classic rock, the feminist movement of the ’60s and ’70s, …[and] the grace of ballerinas like Lotte Berk, the original creator of barre.” It includes pieces like leopard-print leggings, a bomber jacket, and graphic tank tops emblazoned with phrases like, “I Have Resting Barre Face” and, “Feminist As F*ck.”

The collection is on sale now at Barre & Soul’s studios in in Brookline; Cambridge; Melrose; Portsmouth, New Hampshire; and Providence, Rhode Island.
