“This is like, I’m creeping in the night. I am a witch. I’m like, I just want to vibe!” Hudgens, 33, tells PEOPLE of the seasonal spirit that inspired her new Fabletics collection. “It comes from the same free-spirited approach that I have with life.”
Hudgens says that her style aligns with the seasons. This collection pays homage to the shift from summer to fall, and it provides 13 new additions to wardrobes that also transition alongside the year.
“The whole inspiration behind it was the spooky season vibe,” she says of her latest collaboration with the athleisure brand.
“I love having go-to pieces, like staples for a season that you can just integrate over your workout clothes,” says Hudgens.

While her own style preferences served as a guide, thePrincess Switchstar tapped into her free-spirited side to produce a collection that represents “spooky season” and femininity simultaneously. To Hudgens, women are “not just one thing, and… the more that we lean into our unique ways, the more we evolve. And that’s hot.”
“It’s so funny because I’ve always been such a neutrals and gemstones-color kind of gal, and green — like bright green — was the first color I really fell in love with,” says Hudgens, who adds that this process taught her to follow her intuition, even though “it’s easy to get hypercritical about things.” In fashioning the collection’s vegan leather mini skirt, she wavered on the resting height until she leaned into her gut sense and landed on a high-waist fit.
Comfort was another big priority for theTick, Tick…Boom!actress. Coming out of the pandemic, she came to appreciate the value of clothes that “feel good on your body,” and Hudgens worked with Fabletics to find “fabrics that feel amazing and are also functional.” At the intersection of utility, style and creativity, she landed on ’90s fashion as a source of inspiration for the apparel line.
According to Hudgens, Fabletics was the perfect partner in creating clothing to celebrate diversity, femininity and self-expression. She highlights the brand’s focus on size-inclusivity and high-quality products sold “at a great price point.”
“It’s accessible, and they’re just wonderful to work with,” says Hudgens of Fabletics. “Being active is such a big part of my life, and it’s just really fun to do it with people who are passionate about it and are super supportive.”
