Golf Clothing – Models on the Fairways

Now models have taken up the game, golf clothing is becoming trendy for a new generation of stylish women.

Fashionable golf clothing

Sportswear such as golf clothing has never been on the top of the list for fashion, partly down to the old fashioned image of the game and partly down to the need for golf clothing to be highly practical. Anyone who has seen a Parisian catwalk fashion show knows that practicality is often the last thing on designers' lists.

Model influence

But now influential models like Jodie Kidd have taken up the sport, you can be assured golf clothing will never be mundane from now on. All the major designers have taken on golf clothing or sportswear, reflecting how fashion is playing a major part in golf clothing. And like all fashion trends that start off on the catwalk, you can be assured that the influences will drift into mainstream golf clothing. Stella McCartney, Alexander McQueen and Philip Treacy are all working on sporting fashion lines.

New look golf clothing

Golf clothing is the latest sportswear to get a new look. No longer a sport for middle-aged men in plaid with diamond-patterned jumpers, it was inevitable the designer's would turn their eye to the game eventually. Not least because of the high celebrity quota that plays the game – especially in America with actors such as Michael Douglas, Luke Wilson and Samuel L Jackson and Hugh Grant, Sean Connery and model Jodie Kidd playing in the UK. Recent celebrity TV shows in Britain , hosted by the popular presenters Ant and Dec also fuelled the interest in golf clothing in the UK .

Golf clothes get cool

Professional golfers have also given the sport a boost such as Michelle Wie. These new role models with their celebrity fans (Claudia Schiffer is a golf fan) are all fuelling the radical change in golf clothing. Also, the fact that golf clubs are loosing the all-male image with more and more women taking over the game means fashion is flourishing in golf clothing. Where women go, fashion and clothes go too. The Earl of March's Goodwood Estate in West Sussex is the most glamorous golfing location in Britain and boasts a Ralph Lauren boutique.

Stylish golf clothing

Model Jodie Kidd even teamed up with designers when she felt there wasn't enough stylish golf clothing available to suit her image. Golf clothing and fashion is becoming big business as more twenty-something women take up the game. And women know what kind of golf clothing they want to wear to look stylish on the fairways.
