Tenniscore Is TikTok’s Favorite Trend — Shop the Aesthetic

Tennis fashion certainly isn’t new to mainstream style, but this season, athletes and celebrities alike are helping to breathe new life into the trend (hi Zendaya). Ever since the “Challengers” press tour kicked off earlier this spring, social media has been abuzz watching Queen Z pay homage to her superstar character through a range of tennis outfits — from sporting a crisp halter-style mini frock that resembles a tailored tennis dress to strutting the (black) carpet in a pair of Loewe pumps that were fitted with a tennis ball on each heel (swoon!).

Zendaya’s sporty ensembles might be in theme with her new film, but the outfits also mark a much larger shift happening in fashion — one that’s merging sportswear with everyday athleisure pieces. Tenniscore fashion pulls inspiration from on-the-court icons like Coco Gauff or Serena Williams and blends it with everyday styles that are designed to be worn anywhere — think pleated tennis skirts, visors, and preppy vests.

How to Shop the Tenniscore Trend

Those viral Loewe tennis ball pumps might not be within your shopping means (cue the collective sigh), but fortunately, dozens of major brands are embracing the tenniscore trend with their own affordable collections that are designed to help you earn major style points — in your home, wardrobe, and even on the court.

Nike tennis skirts are all the rage on TikTok at the moment, but other athletic apparel labels like Athleta, Girlfriend Collective, and Lululemon have debuted new tennis-inspired styles that’ll help you serve up looks this season. You’ll find sporty prints and tennis-themed coffee table books from home retailers like Serena & Lily or West Elm. And if you’re hoping to take your athletic talents to the tennis court, you can shop out bestselling tennis gear online — including tennis rackets and workout shoes — from affordable brands like Amazon and Nordstrom.

Ahead, we curated a guide for how to shop the tennis trend, with products that’ll help you ace the preppy aesthetic, regardless of your interests or budget.
