Women’s Pants

The Outdoor Voices dress family is built around one idea: get one piece that works for the whole day, no fuss. Our exercise dresses are designed for whatever you're up to, whether that's a tennis match, a long walk, errands across town, or sitting on a patio at four in the afternoon. Built-in shorts mean no second-guessing whether you can move in it. You can. Every athletic dress in the collection is made with four-way-stretch performance fabric, so it holds its shape through a serve, a squat, a sprint to catch the train. They pack flat, dry overnight, and don't ask you to commit to one activity.

The Exercise Dress is our hero athletic dress and the one most people start with. It's the original one-and-done piece for tennis, pickleball, hiking, weekend errands, or a casual dinner. A relaxed-fitted bodice meets a slight A-line skirt that hits just above mid-thigh, with built-in shorts sitting two inches shorter underneath. Beyond the Exercise Dress, the collection includes the Volley Dress, the Cross Back Dress, the Warmup Dress, and the Court Dress, each with its own take on coverage, neckline, and skirt length. If you've found a fit you love in one style, the others are graded on the same patterns, so sizing translates cleanly across the lineup.

Every exercise dress in the collection has compression shorts built into the body, which means no separate undershorts and no riding up. The shorts sit two inches shorter than the skirt for full coverage when you're moving through a tennis serve or bending down for groceries. The compression liner is rated for medium-impact movement, which covers tennis, pickleball, hiking, golf, and most fitness classes. For high-impact like running or HIIT, the Athletic Liner version offers tighter compression and a higher waist. Most styles include a small ball pocket on the right thigh of the shorts, useful for tennis, pickleball, or stashing a key.

The dress collection runs from XS to 3X with grade-specific patterns through every size, so the proportions hold across the range. We use a relaxed-fitted silhouette, which means the dress skims through the bust and waist without clinging. Most customers wear their true size. If you're between sizes, size down for a closer fit through the bust or up for more room. Taller customers (5'9" and up) often size up for an extra inch of skirt length. Shorter or curvier? The grade-pattern approach means your usual size should still work cleanly, but the chat team can walk you through style-specific recommendations if you want a second opinion.

Our exercise dresses use a four-way-stretch fabric blend, typically 78 percent recycled polyester and 22 percent elastane, with style-specific variations. The fabric is moisture-wicking, quick-drying, and UPF 50+ for sun protection on long walks and outdoor matches. Care is simple: machine wash cold with like colors, hang dry or tumble dry low, skip the fabric softener and the iron. The dresses hold their shape wash after wash and travel well; they pack flat and don't wrinkle, which is part of why so many customers reach for them on vacation.

Outdoor Voices makes our version of the exercise dress as a one-piece alternative to a tank-and-shorts outfit. It works for tennis, pickleball, hiking, errands, casual dinners, or anywhere you'd want to move freely without thinking about it.
