This was the start of her childhood love affair with tennis. But when school was complete and her career took off, there was less time for play, and the racquet was retired.
Years later, the girl (let’s call her Laura) was offered her dream job in Paris – alas, it came with a catch: she didn’t know a soul in the city. How was she to spend her weekends?
Remembering her school days the solution was clear - Tennis, of course! So she joined a club and went in search of an enchanting new tennis dress (this was Paris, after all). But when the perfect ballgown eluded her, inspiration struck:
' Wouldn’t it be wonderful to play in something truly special? A dress that was joyfully chic, enduringly flattering and worthy of high summer on an English grass court.'
And so, EXEAT was born – a luxurious British atelier creating spellbinding 'Haute Courtwear' for tennis goddesses, handmade in London from pioneering sustainable fabrics.
Today EXEAT is the world’s leading luxury British tennis brand. We’ve won awards, covered magazines, cameoed in films, appeared in music videos and are worn by ultra-chic players from The Hamptons to Seoul.
But the real magic in this tale? That belongs to you, our wonderful customers, who bring this story to life every time you step onto the court in EXEAT.
With love,
