Designed at our award-winning Wiltshire tennis studio, as loved by Vogue, Forbes and Vanity Fair, The Checkmate Games Dress pairs our classic, hand-painted green and white Argyle diamond print with one of EXEAT’s most flattering sleeveless A-line silhouettes. Its beautifully fitted bodice is crafted in our signature butter soft sustainable fabric and set off with a crisp white peter-pan collar and a trio of golden buttons to elongate the neck. Delicate frills adorn the shoulder, instantly flattering the arm. The lawn tennis inspired look is completed with an elegantly pleated skirt in contrast white, cut on a subtle curve to visibly lengthen the leg. In fresh green and white, this best-selling tennis dress feels polished, spirited and instantly arresting on court.

Cut in our playful Checkmate Print, the dress nods to the geometry of the game board while scattering the scene with emblems from the EXEAT world including tennis racquets, golf clubs and shuttlecocks. The result is distinctive, fashion-led and full of character, yet still wonderfully wearable.

Handmade in the UK from pioneering sustainable performance fabric, the Checkmate Games Dress is a modern tennis dress for women who like their sportswear chic, flattering and a little strategic.
