Dressing the Part: A Doubles Guide to Looking Like a Team at Sectionals

I've played a lot of tennis, raised a family, and built this brand from a single skirt — and if there's one thing all three have taught me, it's that showing up put together changes everything. It changes how you feel walking through the gate. It changes how your partner feels standing next to you. And yes, it changes how the other side of the net sizes the two of you up before a ball is ever struck.

Sectionals is the room where that matters most. The tennis is wonderful, but let's be honest with each other: this is also the place where everyone is looking. So this guide isn't about hydration or warm-up windows. It's about you and your partner walking on court looking like you belong at the top of the draw — because you do.

The Power of Two, Coordinated

There is nothing quite like a doubles team that has clearly thought about this. Not identical — matching head to toe reads a little costume-y — but coordinated. A shared palette. A signature piece you both wear. The kind of quiet, intentional styling that tells everyone watching: we planned this, we're a team, and we are completely at ease. It's the same feeling as arriving somewhere beautifully dressed with your closest friend. You stand a little taller. You play a little freer.

The women who do this best treat their kit the way they'd treat any other part of showing up well — as a pleasure, not a chore. Pick your look together the week before. Make it a ritual. It's half the fun of playing as a pair.

Start From the Feet: The Slides

If you take one thing from me, take this: the Tennis and Pickleball Slides are the most effortless way for a team to look pulled together, on and off the court. Nobody spends the whole day in their court shoes — and the moment you step out of them and into a pair of these, you feel it. They're that little exhale of ease between matches, and they happen to look wonderful doing it. When you and your partner both arrive in coordinating slides, you don't look like two players who happened to draw into the same event. You look like a team that plans. They've become the piece our players reach for over and over, and once you own a pair you'll understand exactly why.

The Skort That Means Business

For the court itself, the Love All Tennis Skirt is my forever recommendation for a team — classic, flattering, and elegant on any surface, whether you and your partner match exactly or simply share a color story. It moves the way you need it to and looks polished the entire time, which is the whole point: you should never have to think about your clothes mid-match. If your team likes a little more edge, the Tattoo Swing Skirt makes a gorgeous statement between the lines, and the Cocktails on the Court Swing Skirt carries you straight from the last point into the celebration after. I always tell my friends to bring a fresh look for later — you'll want to feel just as lovely at the social as you did on court.

Carry It Beautifully: The Bag

How you arrive says as much as how you play, and the Hampton Tennis Bag is the piece that finishes the whole picture. It's the bag that turns heads at the club — the one people ask you about — and it happens to hold everything a long day of doubles asks of it. Set two of them down side by side and your team looks the part before either of you has stretched. That's the impression you want to make walking in.

Feel Like a Queen, Play Like Royalty

We built this brand to make players feel confident, empowered, and unmistakably themselves — and there's no better stage for that than standing beside your partner at Sectionals, both of you looking like you own the place. Choose your looks together. Wear them like the team you are. See you out there. 🎾
