The tennis dress is a hardworking staple for any player. All of these elegant dresses feature breathable performance fabrics and flattering figure-skimming silhouettes (read: stretchy).

Hedge’s feminine dress can be monogrammed for the ultimate in preppy styling. Another stand out? L’etoile Sport’s half-zip dress which is fabricated with a luxurious Brazilian lace.

3. new luxury tennis sleeveless and short sleeve tops
We’re serious about our tennis tops. They have to be constructed with range of motion in mind – those aces aren’t going to serve themselves! And we don’t think it’s asking too much for a flattering drape because the last thing we want is to feel self-conscious of lumps and bumps.
[metaslider id=87033]Lily Pulitzer’s top with an embroidered flower neckline may look dainty but it offers sun protection (UPF 50+) and a slightly longer torso for coverage or tucking in. Fila’s tank has princess seams and shirring to create an hour-glass silhouette and the pretty lilac color is subtle enough for traditionalists. Our favorite is Denise Cronwall’s elegant tank with a fashionable peplum hem.

4. new luxury tennis skirts
We’re not ashamed to admit it; we started tennis because of the skirts! And what practical skirts they are – with built-in shorties and pockets. We really should be asking ourselves why all skirts aren’t designed like tennis skirts.
[metaslider id=87040]Those looking to make a fashion statement will love Inphorm’s hot pink skirt or Angle’s multi-pieced skort. A classic white skirt from Lija or Fila gets a subtle pop of color from a printed ruffle or grosgrain trim.
