Laila Coslovich Summer Tennis Apparel: the collection designed for the Sicilian heat
What is the best summer tennis dress for playing in hot climates?
When summer arrives, many female tennis players face the same problem: how to continue playing with comfort, elegance, and freedom of movement when temperatures soar?
If you've also wondered what the best summer tennis dress is for playing in hot climates, the answer doesn't just depend on the design, but above all on the choice of fabrics.
As a tennis player and founder of the Laila Coslovich brand, I am well aware of this need. I was born and live in Sicily, a wonderful land where the sun shines for most of the year, but where during summer the heat can become particularly intense, especially on the tennis courts.
It is precisely for this reason that I designed the 2026 summer collection by choosing materials that could offer lightness, breathability, and comfort, without sacrificing elegance and femininity.
The problem for female tennis players during summer
Playing tennis means continuous movement, running, accelerating, stopping, and starting again.
When temperatures rise, clothing can become an obstacle rather than an ally.
Many women complain about:
-
feeling excessively hot;
-
heavy fabrics that retain sweat;
-
irritations or discomfort on the skin;
-
garments that take a long time to dry;
-
poor comfort during longer matches.
Naturally, no dress can prevent sweating when playing under the summer sun. However, the choice of fabric can make a big difference in how you feel on the court.
How I created the 2026 summer collection
When I started designing the Laila Coslovich 2026 summer tennis dress collection, I first thought about the real needs of women who play tennis during the hottest months.
Being accustomed to the Sicilian climate, I knew I needed even lighter and more breathable fabrics than those normally used in sportswear.
For this reason, I selected eco-sustainable technical materials characterized by a light weight, a pleasant feel on the skin, and quick drying.
The goal was simple: to create tennis dresses that would help women feel fresh, comfortable, and elegant even on the hottest days.
Certified fabrics: sustainability and skin safety
One of the most important aspects of the collection concerns the quality of the materials.
The fabrics used are GRS (Global Recycled Standard) certified, an international certification that guarantees the use of recycled materials and responsible production processes.
Furthermore, they are OEKO-TEX® certified, which means they have been tested to verify the absence of harmful substances to health.
This is a particularly important aspect for women with sensitive skin or who spend many hours on tennis courts during the summer.
Even though they are synthetic technical fabrics, they are designed to offer comfort, softness, and a pleasant sensation in contact with the skin.
Why these fabrics are ideal for summer tennis
The fabrics I chose are also used in sectors where lightness, elasticity, and quick drying are essential.
Their main characteristics are:
-
high breathability;
-
fast drying after washing;
-
lightness;
-
elasticity and freedom of movement;
-
comfort during sports activity;
-
a slightly luminous and refined effect.
This last detail contributes to creating that chic and feminine aesthetic that represents the essence of the Laila Coslovich brand.
Because feeling elegant on the court should never be a luxury reserved for a few.
The real goal is not just to play well
When I design a tennis dress, I don't just think about performance.
I think about how a woman wants to feel when she steps onto the court.
Chic.
Confident.
Feminine.
Original.
Elegant.
Too often, women's sportswear forces women to choose between practicality and style.
The philosophy of Laila Coslovich arises precisely from the desire to unite these two worlds.
Because tennis can be competitive without sacrificing grace.
It can be technical without sacrificing personality.
And it can be high-performing without sacrificing elegance.
The journey of the chic tennis player
Imagine a summer day.
The sun illuminates the court.
The air is warm.
You have an important match to play.
In the past, you would have only thought about the heat, the sweat, the discomfort.
Today, however, you can focus on your game.
On the pleasure of moving freely.
On feeling comfortable.
On feeling feminine and chic.
This is the transformation I want to offer through each collection.
Not just a simple tennis dress.
But a different way of experiencing tennis.
