Need some new gear for tennis? This season you’re spoilt for choice with some great new feminine pieces. Go for unconventional shades of black, yellow and blue or stick to the traditional whites. The choice is yours.

adidas Adilibra Tank (£23) and Skort (£25), CC IVY Tennis Trainers (£55) Pictured right and below left

Stockists: 0870 2404 204 or http://shop.adidas.co.uk

We love this great outfit from adidas, in two great colourways. The tank has a pretty layered look and flattering gathered hem, with an inner support bra,  and comes in all over CLIMACOOL® fabric to keep you cool and fresh on court. The skort is in an easy pull on style with seamless inner shorts.

Ellie Gray Sassy Tennis Vest (£18) and Skort (£25) Pictured below centre

Stockists: www.elliegray.com

This is the first time that Ellie Gray has produced a tennis collection, and we think it is a great well priced option. The matching vest and skort come in both black with flashes of pink or traditional white. The vest has a hidden support shelf and the skort has built in shorts with a tennis ball pocket at the rear.

USA PRO skort (£32) and Top (£30) Pictured below left

Stockists: www.usapro.co.uk

This pleated skirt is really flattering and comes with inbuilt shorts and a handy ball pocket. Team it with the matching tee, also available in white, if you prefer not to colour match head to toe.

USA PRO skort (£30) and Top (£30) Pictured below left

Stockists: www.usapro.co.uk

Matching tennis skort and top, both available in black or white. The skort features a ball pocket, and in built shorts and both come in MMT lite fabric that transports moisture away from your skin leaving you feeling dry and comfortable.

Casall 9114 Dress (£59.95) Pictured below right

Stockists: www.sportswoman.co.uk

A classic tennis dress made from quick drying, functional and comfortable pique. Features large side pockets which are perfect for holding tennis balls. Comes a in a good range of colours, if you wan to veer from classic white.


Ellie Gray Sassy Tennis Tee (£20) and Skort (£25) Pictured below left

Stockists: www.elliegray.com

Like the Ellie Gray outfit above, this matching tee and skort come in both black with flashes of pink or traditional white. The tee has a hidden support shelf like the vest but is ideal for those of you who prefer to keep the tops of your arms covered.

Sweaty Betty Tennis Match Dress (£55) Pictured below right

Stockists: www.sweatybetty.com

This elegant dress is super feminine with its fitted style, cute bow detail and flared skirt. It has an inbuilt bra support, but no built in inner shorts so you may want to buy some to preserve your modesty on the court!

KSwiss Defier miSOUL £90 Pictured below

Stockists: www.kswiss.co.uk

In much the same way that you may have different running shoes for training and race days, this shoe has two interchangeable insoles. Choose between a lightweight insole for speed on match days and a cushion insole for extra comfort on practice days. We love the silver colourway too, sty lish without beng over the top flashy!

adidas Barricade V Ana Ivanovic £84.99 Pictured below

Stockists: 0870 2404 204 or http://shop.adidas.co.uk

adidas’ biggest selling tennis shoe the Barricade V provides top stability on court for all players regardless of their style or size.Featuring adiWEAR® – a durable, non-marking rubber the Barricade V avoids early wear and tear essential both practice and matches. The Barricade V Ana Ivanovic features pink stripes and a pink triangular pattern.
