Fit first, always
A netball dress lives or dies on fit: secure shoulders that don't shift on a jump ball, a body cut that moves with rotation, and a length the team actually votes on. We produce sample sizes before club orders precisely because a dress that fits transforms how a kit is worn and how long a club keeps the design.
Two-piece skort-and-vest sets suit clubs that want sizing flexibility across a mixed squad.
Colour blocking that flatters and functions
Side panels in a darker tone slim the silhouette and hide court contact; a contrast yoke lifts the design and frames position bibs cleanly. Keep the front torso relatively calm, that's where bibs sit for the whole match, and a busy pattern under a bib letter turns to noise.
Sublimation means your colours never fade through a season of weekly washes, worth saying to any committee comparing against printed dresses.
Club identity across the set
Design the dress, bibs, warm-up top and hoodie as one system: same palette, same accent placement. Bibs in inverted colours (dress colours swapped) always look intentional. Add the club name in small type at the back hem, a detail players love.
For schools: house colours can run as trim variants of one base design, keeping cost down across multiple teams.
Practical details committees ask about
Mixed junior-to-adult sizing in one order, replacement dresses with no minimum, bib sets sized for juniors and adults, and name personalisation for tour or presentation dresses. All standard.
