AS TENNISCORE SOARS IN POPULARITY: 7 TENNIS OUTFITS THAT LOOK CHIC AND PERFORM BETTER, TESTED BY TEAM MC

"When it comes to stylish tennis outfits, you can't go wrong with Alo Yoga. The brand has been seen on Hailey Bieber, Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid and more, and after trying the Aces Tennis Skirt out for myself, I can totally see why the celebs love it."

"After trying on the skirt, I was surprised by the quality. It's super lightweight, true to size and not see-through at all (despite the fact that I was wearing black underwear the first time I wore it). I felt supported during my workout and felt cute enough to go and grab a coffee afterwards."

"Although I didn't get that sweaty, due to the light colour, I doubt that a lot of sweat would show up. For me, the details are what really made this piece stand out, such as the logo waistband and inner shorts. As you can see from the model below, the skirt can be styled as an everyday piece, and it will be one I wear on and off the court for years to come." - Grace Lindsay, Health Writer

"This tennis skirt by Decathlon's own brand, Artengo, is a much more affordable option. Aside from the amazing price point, this skirt is super comfortable and secure, and I played an hour of tennis (on one of the hottest days of the year) with no problems whatsoever.

"The fabric is very breathable, so there were no sweat patches in sight. The shape of the skirt was flattering and although it's not one of the most stylish options, I still felt like you could make it work for a daytime look too."

The only issue I had with the skirt was that I found the waistband gaped a little bit at the back. I would recommend trying this one on before buying, but for the price, it's pretty damn good." - Grace Lindsay, Health Writer

"If you're not a skirt kind of gal, Adanola has got you covered. I'm a big fan of this brand, so when I saw their new tennis outfits, I knew I had to give one a try."

"I went for the white dress and took the outfit straight to the tennis court. First impressions: I was blown away by how breathable it was - no sweaty mess, over here."

"Similarly, because of the in-built shorts, I felt really comfortable moving around, however, they did ride up a little bit during the match. Apart from that, this outfit was a winner, and I would definitely style this up with a pair of New Balance trainers and a blazer to go and get brunch with the girls." - Grace Lindsay, Health Writer

"I actually can't really fault adidas' iconic club tennis skirt - it's a best-seller for a reason. It's flattering, fits well, and actually sweat-wicks, all while looking pretty fashionable, too (yes, I wore it to the office and on a date night at The Standard). I liked the supportive waistband - which struck the perfect balance of supporting without digging in - and the logo detail, too."

"A big win for me was the fact the undershorts actually stayed where they were meant to - so, and I mean so many we tried, rolled up, which is annoying not to mention uncomfortable and distracting when you're actually wearing to workout in."

"It's an affordable price point - you don't need to break the bank with this one. Do note, though: I'm five foot 2 and it was a good mid-thigh length on me, so many run a little short on other, taller women." - Ally Head, Senior Health Editor

"Ok, so the entire team loved this skirt. It's gorgeous - a tight fit, flattering and statement trim all made it stand out from the other designs. We also loved that it's a two-piece, and the spaghetti straps of the bra are very Y2K."

"That said, it's definitely more of a fashion-focused design if you ask me. The bra is very low support and the straps were a little long for my torso (I'm five foot two). If you're after a set that'll support you through endless rallies, it isn't the one - it's not the most supportive for high-intensity exercise and wasn't the most breathable. But it is very cute." - Ally Head, Senior Health Editor

"This tennis skirt has everything you need for a proper match, including built-in shorts, a dual-entry pocket, four-way stretch and sweat-wicking material and mesh panels in the liner."

"Although the shorts are a little see-through, you can't see a thing thanks to the top layer. When wearing this myself, I was very comfortable and found it fit me perfectly."

"One thing I will say is that this style is definitely more of a sporty look, so I'm not too sure if I would wear it as a fashion statement, but for working out, it's ideal." - Grace Lindsay, Health Writer

"Game, set, match! While my tennis skills are mediocre at best, this skirt certainly made me look the part. The length was just perfect, and the built-in shorts underneath made me feel confident I could run around all day without having to worry about anything." - Zoe Anastasiou, Health Writer
