Print with Purpose: Lilly Pulitzer x WTA Foundation
"Anything is possible with sunshine and a little pink." - Lilly Pulitzer
With that mantra on our mind and in our heart, we're proud to launch "Never Ending Summer," a Lilly Pulitzer Print with Purpose in support of the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) Foundation! This collaboration embodies Lilly Pulitzer’s dedication to creating positive change while celebrating women athletes and the enduring spirit of the U.S. summer tennis season.
Before we give you the full scoop, you might be wondering...what's a Print with Purpose? Glad you asked! A Print with Purpose is a limited edition collection anchored by a hand-painted print that celebrates a partner organization, whose mission is celebrated through our artistry and design. Featured on new and best-selling styles, Prints with Purpose are at the heart of campaigns that shine a spotlight on the important work of our charitable partners. Since launching in 2017, the Print with Purpose program has donated over $500,000 to non-profit partners. Learn more about the program and other elements of Lilly’s philanthropy here.
Okay, GAME ON. Have you been riveted by big wins, underdog stories, and celebrations of women in sports this summer? We have and we're energized to see the attention these incredible athletes across all sports are receiving—it's about time! With that, we're thrilled to share more about our incredible partner, the WTA Foundation. The WTA Foundation empowers girls and women to live fully and supports WTA communities worldwide through initiatives promoting equality, education, leadership, and health, and wellness. They believe tennis can be a team sport when we come together as a community to uplift each other (don't you agree?!), and we are showing our support through a $20,000 donation.

Seeking more inspiration for your Spectator Style? We turned to the most stylish person we know, our EVP of Design & Development, Mira Fain for her picks. She's not only fabulous. she's also an avid tennis player and catches all the major matches. Shop her edit which includes the UPF 50+ Luxletic Alona Dress in Zee Bebe (we can't get enough of this print!), the Kiran Button Down Top in Breezy Aqua Jungle Escape (hello engineered prints - we l-o-v-e you!), and of course the Aegean Jacket and Barcelona Skort are the perfect doubles match in our Print with Purpose, Never Ending Summer.
Headed to the city to catch a match? Don’t forget your Clear Cross Body Bag. This is a stadium style staple. Pull together a look with our new Lilly White Shirt, High Rise Gretchen Short in Flitting About, Hallie sneakers, and a great pair of sunnies. Pop a Brockton Sweater over your shoulders if you’re staying for match play under the stadium lights.
If you’re wearing your Lilly in the stands, we’d love to see your stadium style! Tag us on Instagram @lillypulitzer and we’ll return the love. xx Lilly
