Pickleball and tennis girlies unite!

The Gold Hinge pleated tennis skirt, which has frequently gone viral on #RushTok since 2023, has been restocked on TikTok Shop, which means you should scoop it up ASAP. If you aren’t familiar with TikTok Shop, allow me to give you a quick introduction. The platform is an e-commerce feature within the app that allows you to shop for products from your favorite brands and creators (pro tip: you can also shop during livestreams) with just the touch of a button.

Now, why has this breezy skirt been such a viral top seller for over two years? For starters, it is comfortably-made with a blend of polyester and spandex that gives you a reasonable amount of stretch room, and tons of breathability to match. Also sweat-wicking, the skirt features built-in shorts underneath, and a high waist design that keeps everything in place as you move. Wondering if there are pockets?

Yep! There’s two of ‘em on the side you can use for key cards and other small essentials.  And if you’re looking for styling ideas, TikTok creator and Alabama University student @bre.morris recently sported the skirt in the white color, pairing it with a pink jersey and white HOKA sneakers.

The skirt is also machine-washable, meaning you don’t have to take a trip to the cleaners. Additionally, there are multiple fun colorways, such as mulberry and butter yellow, to choose from, and the reviews from customers are enough to make you grab several for yourself. “My granddaughter has several of these tennis skirts. Perfect fit, great skirt washes and dries great,” raves one TikTok shopper. “Obsessed with this skirt and the fit was absolutely perfect! I got so many compliments and DMs asking for links,” exclaims another. “This is my new favorite skirt. It's definitely short, but the shorts stay in place remarkably well. I am a small, but I sized up to a medium, and it's perfect.”

While most say the fit is perfect, it could run on the shorter side if you’re taller or have long legs, so you may want to consider sizing up if you’re concerned about it being too short.

Bottom line: Whether your fall plans include joining a sorority or not, this is the perfect skirt for the season, so I highly recommend you stock up before it's too late.
