We’ve all heard of Pickleball. It’s that strange sport that appears to be a marriage between Tennis and Ping-pong. Perhaps your parents play it, or it’s taken over your favourite outdoor Tennis court. There’s no doubt Pickleball has been gaining popularity as of late. With its rise in popularity, it was about time the athleisure world designed a stylish ensemble for the sport. The Pickleball dress by Norma Kamali is the epitome of marrying function and fashion.
The Pickleball Dress
Why does this actually look like a dress I could dance off to the club in?
With its playful skirt and its practical bodysuit underneath, you’ll be the belle of the court. And of course, the dress is made of the finest materials, with a fit that flatters every figure. But it’s not just about looking good. This Pickleball Dress is also practical. Breathable fabric, moisture-wicking properties, and 4-way stretch. The dress retails for $145 and is available at both Net-A-Porter and FRWD.
Now, I know some may say that Pickleball isn’t a sport for the upper crust, but I beg to differ. We can elevate any activity with a touch of sophistication and flair, and the Pickleball dress is proof. So grab your racquet, put on your dress, and let’s show them how it’s done!
Tennis and Pickleball have always been popular sports among the fashionable set. And, as with any sport, the right attire can make all the difference. One might think that Tennis and Pickleball fashion would be quite different, but in truth, they intersect quite beautifully. Both sports require comfortable and breathable clothing, as well as practical accessories like visors, sun hats, and sunglasses.
Of course, there are some key differences. Tennis often requires more formal, tailored clothing, while Pickleball leans towards a more relaxed, athletic look. But both sports can be elevated with a touch of sophistication and style.
For example, a well-tailored Tennis dress in a bold colour or print can be paired with chic sneakers for a look that’s both functional and fashionable. And for Pickleball, a sporty skirt with built-in shorts can be paired with a breathable tank and a stylish visor for a look that’s both cute and practical.
