Dresses & Skirts

Nine active dress + skort styles in performance fabrics. Active dresses (with built-in shorts): the Ultra-Form One-Shoulder Active Dress (tennis-ready), the Ultra-Soft Active Dress (built-in shorts with pockets), the Flowknit Breeze Fit & Flare Dress (midi length, lightweight recycled polyester), the Ultra-Form Active Dress (pickleball + tennis-ready), and the Power-Up Square Neck Dress (Court Sport — flared hem with subtle side slit, adjustable straps). Skorts (skirt + built-in shorts): the Ultra-Soft Side Slit Skort (tennis), the Performance Tech Skort (tennis to commuter), and the Ultra-Form Tennis Skort (high-rise waistband + built-in shorts). Plus the Court Sport Pleated Tennis Skirt — flattering pleated design designed for full mobility during every swing and serve.

An athletic dress is built for movement with performance fabric and integrated shorts under the skirt panel — designed for active wear like pickleball, tennis, or active-everyday. Quince's athletic dresses (Ultra-Form, Ultra-Soft, Flowknit Breeze, Power-Up) all have moisture-wicking fabric and built-in shorts. A tennis dress is a more specific subset — designed specifically for the tennis court with mobility cuts (flared hem, fitted bodice) for the swing-serve motion. Quince's Ultra-Form One-Shoulder Active Dress and Ultra-Form Active Dress are tennis-ready; the Power-Up Square Neck Dress is Court Sport-branded for tennis. A skort is a skirt with built-in shorts hidden underneath — looks like a skirt from the front, has shorts for full coverage and movement freedom. Quince's three skorts (Ultra-Soft Side Slit, Performance Tech, Ultra-Form Tennis) plus the Court Sport Pleated Tennis Skirt all use this construction.

Most run true to size with built-in shorts hidden under the skirt panel for full coverage during active movement. Active dresses have a fitted bodice through the chest with the skirt panel falling at mid-thigh. Skorts sit at the natural waist or high-rise (depending on style) with the built-in shorts visible only when lifting the skirt panel. Ultra-Form fabric pieces fit close to the body for the sculpted active silhouette. Ultra-Soft pieces fit with slightly more give. The Power-Up Square Neck Dress has adjustable straps for fit customization. The Flowknit Breeze Fit & Flare runs midi length (longer than the other active dresses) with a flatter A-line silhouette.

For Ultra-Form, Ultra-Soft, Power-Up, and Flowknit Breeze fabrics: machine wash cool on a gentle cycle. Avoid fabric softener — it coats synthetic performance fibers and reduces moisture-wicking and quick-dry performance over time. Tumble dry low or hang dry. For the Performance Tech Skort and Performance Tech-fabric pieces: same care — gentle machine wash cool, tumble dry low. Wash after each active session to prevent bacterial buildup that affects performance-fabric finishes. Avoid bleach across all materials. Built-in short panels are integrated into the construction and clean in the same wash.
