Whether you've seen Zendaya's new movie Contenders or not , chances are the press tour outfits haven't escaped your attention. In fact, you might not be able to help but see photo after photo of the actress in playful tennis-inspired outfits.
Between Zendaya's success and the burgeoning popularity of tennis' cousin, pickleball, it's no wonder brands including Mango, Lacoste and Miu Miu are jumping on the tennis trend. Some of the biggest names in fashion, including Bella Hadid and Hailey Bieber, have also jumped on the bandwagon.
While you don't actually need to play racquet sports to rock the core tennis look, below, you'll find a few pieces you can actually wear to play tennis, all from Birdie & Ace - a boutique that specializes in tennis and golf Clothing sportswear brands. Their goal is to provide functional clothing that is practical and stylish so you can look, feel and perform your best. While they're made from buttery-soft performance fabric that's perfect for active wear, these pieces are also stylish enough to wear off the court.
