Tennis being one of the few social distancing This summer, it’s no surprise that the tennis skirt is the latest athleisure trend that’s catering to our need for comfy, cute activewear. Once popular in the ’90s, this skirt is a trend that’s making a comeback in 2020 with a modern, sleek, and sporty design, making it a solid choice for girls on the go, both on and off the court.
Featuring fitted shorts underneath and a lightweight, flexible fabric, this skirt allows for more activity and comfort throughout the day. Known for its all-around pleats, the tennis skirt can also be designed as a mid-rise fitted style, hugging your curves in all the right places with an elastic waistband.
Whether you love pleats or decide to take a fitted approach, here are three outfit ideas that go beyond the tennis court.
