Yacht club attire for women covers a wider range than the mens equivalent: formal clubhouse, racing crew, casual day on the dock, and evening events all call for different pieces. The right club-branded foundation is a womens cotton pique polo, a premium womens cotton tee, a cropped or standard hoodie, and an embroidered hat. This guide walks through each piece and shows how to stock them in the club store.
The Gildan Womens Premium Cotton Pique Polo is the cornerstone womens piece. It uses the same pique fabric and burgee embroidery as the mens version with a womens cut: tailored through the waist, slightly shorter body length, and a more flattering silhouette.
Color direction: white as the formal default, navy as the everyday default, and light blue or pink as a summer accent. Embroidered burgee on the left chest, the same position as the mens polo, gives the club a unified look in member photos.
For race days and active sailing, swap to a moisture-wicking performance polo. The Sport-Tek Ladies Moisture Wicking Tee in a polo-collar variant or a unisex performance polo in a small or medium size works equally well.
For casual days, the premium womens tee options:
Summer sailing and warm-weather club days call for tanks. The womens tank options:
Stock two of these in the club store with the burgee on the chest in a single color treatment.
For cool-weather and shoulder-season club days:
Many yacht clubs also stock the unisex Champion Crewneck and Bear Grips Comfort Soft Hoodie sized down (S or XS) for women who prefer the traditional cut.
A complete club-branded women wardrobe in five to seven pieces:
At club retail pricing, the full set runs $200 to $260. Members assemble the wardrobe over the season. The store stays open year-round so a member who joins in July starts with one piece and adds more over the next 12 months.

Start FreeMost yacht clubs allow a polo or blouse with tailored shorts, capris, or a casual dress for daytime. Evening events at the clubhouse usually require a dress or skirt with a more formal top. Check the specific club rules at the door. A club-branded polo is rarely wrong for daytime.
Yes. Most clubs stock the womens cotton pique polo and womens triblend tee alongside unisex hoodies and unisex hats. Members pick the cut and size at checkout. The same burgee design appears across every piece.
For casual days and post-race events: yes, cropped silhouettes are common in modern yacht club wardrobes. For formal clubhouse dining: a standard-length hoodie or crewneck reads more appropriately.
White, navy, and light blue cover almost every womens piece. Add one accent color tied to the burgee (red, green, or pink) for variety. Most yacht club womens stores stay within a four-color palette across all SKUs.
