How to Buy Tennis Skirts

Tennis players like the Williams sisters have helped to revolutionize the look of tennis by appearing in colorful and fashionable apparel on the courts. The tennis skirt has undergone a lot of changes and it is so fashionable now that it can be worn as casual apparel. It is available in a wide variety of designs.

Instructions

    • 1

      Select a tennis skirt based on the style and cut. A-line, straight-cut and pleated skirts are some of the most popular tennis skirts available. A-line tennis skirts will not cling to your body, straight-cut skirts have slits that allow for easy movement and pleated skirts are stylish.

    • 2

      Compare waist styles. Tennis skirts are available with elasticized or banded waists. Skirts with elasticized waists are definitely easier to pull on while skirts with bands may feel more secure.

    • 3

      Buy a tennis skirt with attached shorts, tights or panties. Skirts like these will help you avoid exposure and save you the additional expense of buying something else to wear underneath them.

    • 4

      Buy a tennis skirt as part of a set or on its own. The matching blouse in the set will save you the trouble of searching for something to wear with the skirt. However, if you purchase a skirt in a plain color, it will be easy to match it with almost any top you already have.

    • 5

      Note that some brands offer tennis skirts with pockets or attached shorts, but not both. Other brands will put the pockets in the attached shorts. Well-known brands include Nike, Adidas, Avia, Wilson and Reebok.

    • 6

      Save money when you buy a reversible tennis skirt. With both sides wearable, reversible skirts will give you two skirts for the price of one.

    • 7

      Choose your tennis skirt based on color. Color is said to affect your moods. For instance, a color like red will make you feel powerful and could help you look intimidating to your opponent.

    • 8

      Select a tennis skirt cut to a length that is flattering to your figure. Tall ladies can wear pretty much any length they choose, but ladies of shorter stature will look their best in mini or knee-length skirts. Long tennis skirts will only cause people of short stature to look shorter.

    • 9

      Walk around in the skirt before you buy it. Also, pretend you are on the tennis court and try some of your regular moves. This will reveal any potential problems you may have later.
