WORKOUT WEAR HAS COME A LONG WAY
1969: Donald G. Fisher, a San Francisco real estate developer, opens the first Gap. Baggy cotton T-shirts, sweatpants and sweatshirts follow.
The '70s: Hottie Mikhail Baryshnikov brought in the ladies to see the film "The Turning Point" (1977) and helped set off the balletwear craze.
The '80s: The aerobics craze is in full swing. Workout fanatics look as if they stepped off the set of "Flashdance".
The '90s & amp; beyond: Active wear is now worn to pick up the kids at school. Top designers get in on the act: Marc Jacobs for Louis Vuitton designs a fashion-forward scuba jacket. Yohji Yamamoto tries his hand at sneakers for Adidas.
