I'm a Fashion Editor Who Plays Tennis Weekly—These Are the Items I Love On and Off the Court
Tennis dresses, accessories, sneakers, and more.
I may be a fashion editor, but if I could choose any profession in the world, I'd be a tennis player. Naturally, I'm nowhere near skilled enough to be a pro, but ever since I picked up a racket when I was around 9 years old, I've been hooked on the sport. I love playing, watching, and following the Grand Slams. I love the way I feel when I'm on the court, and of course, I love the tennis outfits too. For the last three years, I've been playing tennis weekly with a coach as well as a small group, so my tennis wardrobe has been something I've given more energy and thought to. There are certain brands and pieces I've taken to, and today, I want to share my favorite styles that I reach for again and again (on and off the court), as well as the chicest tennis items I have my eye on.
If you love tennis as much as I do, are just starting your tennis journey, or perhaps are in need of some chic outfits to wear to a tennis open, then keep scrolling.

A versatile tank I mix and match with different tennis skirts and shorts weekly.
Every time I wear this pleated tennis skirt, I get so many compliments. I love the feel of it.
Perfect for warm-ups, cool-downs, and post-tennis activities.
Complete with a built-in shelf bra and removable cups, this tank offers the perfect amount of support and comfort.
This is such a great skirt I'm now eyeing the green colorway, Sycamore.
A stretchy fabric and lightweight design (with a hint of basketball vibes) make this a great performance tank.
I own this in navy, and it's incredibly chic and comfortable. The white is next on my list.
My Nike Dri-Fit tennis skirt gets used more than any other piece in my tennis wardrobe.
I can't rave more about these shorts, which feature a lightweight liner. They're comfortable, easy to move in, and have a cool, retro look about them.
This set gets rave reviews—I can't wait to try it.
Lacoste never fails me with looks that serve. I love the subtle zip detail and bomber collar.
Tory Sport is new to my tennis rotation, and this is the piece I'm starting with. It's so versatile and chic.

I can't tell you how often I wear these track pants—more off the court than on!
Tennis Dresses
I reach for this chic and classic dress on repeat.
I love the fact that this has a built-in shelf bra with removable pads and is so sleek and stretchy.
This is at the top of my wish list. I love the retro-chic look of this new dress by L'Agence.
I've spotted this polo dress on some of my favorite fashion people and just had to try it for myself.
It doesn't take much convincing when there's a hidden bodysuit underneath, so you can feel supported and covered while playing.
A best seller for a reason.
When Emma Navarro does a collab with FP Movement, amazing things happen! How pretty is this dress?
A classic tennis dress you won't regret.
