Meet the Movement-Friendly Dress the Solheim Cup Team Chose for Their Opening Ceremony Look
From our focus on functional fabrics to our partnership with WNBA team The New York Liberty, everything we do is designed to help women move through the world with confidence and ease. So when professional golfer and U.S. Team Assistant Captain, Morgan Pressel, approached us about working together, we saw the prospective collaboration as an immediate hole-in-one. Fast-forward to this September at the Solheim Cup, and all 12 of the players on the U.S. team were clad in M.M., walking across the stage at the opening ceremony.
Their outfit of choice? The Gwynne dress. While golf attire is not our wheelhouse, the players saw in the Gwynne what our design team put into it: performance-wear-inspired fabric and a powerful silhouette. It was the perfect match for an event that celebrates athletics with a touch of grandeur.
Even if you’re not a professional athlete, the movement-friendly qualities of the Gwynne dress make it ideal for everyday life. It’s crafted from our best-selling OrigamiTech material, which is lightweight, moisture-wicking, machine-washable, and wrinkle-resistant. We actually developed the fabric with travel in mind, so it’s ideal for life on the go—whatever that means to you. Even better: the Gwynne is a particularly versatile piece, since it’s basically two items for the price of one. You can wear it as a trench-style dress all buttoned-up, or repurpose it as a lightweight jacket layered over a top and pants.
