While tennis has its signature crisp whites and pleated skirts and dresses, the best golf clothes for women have been in need of a refresh from argyle socks and preppy V-necks. Thankfully, that has arrived, and these active styles are now pieces you might want to wear off the course, too.
The Best Golf Clothes & Accessories for Women
Designers like Tory Burch, Malbon, and The Upside are leaning into motifs that harken back to golf’s most stylish days (when golfers like Gary Player and Arnold Palmer sported cardigans, sweater vests, and trousers), but with sweat-wicking materials and more fashion-forward cuts. If you wish to take a more classic activewear approach, tried-and-true heritage labels such as Adidas, Nike, and Ralph Lauren are ready to take your wardrobe up a notch with their golf-ready takes on the best workout clothes for women.
Here, shop some of the best golf clothes for women on the market, from polished sweater vests and easy-to-wear dresses, to bucket hats and more— all of which you’ll want to sport even when you aren’t teeing up.
Best Golf Dresses
A sporty dress is the workhorse of any golf wardrobe. It’s typically designed with a collar, above-the-knee hemline, and in a performance fabric (stretch cotton piqué, for example). From there, look for differentiating details like pleating, zippers, and piping that lend a preppy touch. You’ll find a classic golf dress from sporty favorites like Varley, or you can skew retro with a piece like Tory Burch’s contrast stitch polo dress.

Best Golf Accessories
Half the fun of dressing for a day of sport is the accessorizing. For golf, in particular, the opportunities to add playful touches to your look abound, beginning with the best workout shoes and a carry bag from Malbon x Jimmy Choo. Other golf-specific pieces like gloves, club bags, and caddie towels can also lend a hand in crafting a stylish moment.

Tory Burch’s take on the windbreaker is a great place to start if you’re going more traditional, as is Nike’s half-zip golf top. For warmth (and extra style points!), casually sling a sweater over your shoulders—we love Alo’s club cardigan for its interesting striping.
