Designing for the Modern Sportswoman: What Field-Ready Elegance Really Looks Like

Designing for the Modern Sportswoman: What Field-Ready Elegance Really Looks Like

For decades, women’s fieldwear has been shaped by what already existed—adapted from men’s silhouettes, fabrics and function. It’s only recently that the conversation has shifted from “what works” to “what’s made for her.”

At Isabelle Hunter, we’re here to design from the ground up—not just for a woman’s form, but for her rhythm. Her rituals. Her way of walking through the world with grace, strength, and a quiet kind of confidence that doesn’t need to prove itself.

SS25 was built for that kind of woman.


Reimagining the Classics: Where Form Meets Function

Let’s start with the Greenbrier Clays Vest.

Tailored yet breathable. Elegant, but made to move. Crafted from American linen and lined in cotton, it brings a polished silhouette to the field—without compromising on ease or practicality.

But what sets it apart is what you won’t see at first glance.

Discreet loops at the waist for gloves or glasses. A hidden tab inside the collar to hold in-ear ear protection. Reverse welt pockets for effortless access to station cards. Quilted shoulder pads with openings for optional recoil inserts. Every detail was placed with purpose—for the woman who doesn’t want to fuss, but does want to feel good.

This isn’t a borrowed design. It’s a thoughtful one.

Elegance in Motion: The Charlotte Blouse

Our Charlotte Blouse (available in sleeveless and long-sleeve options) is another example of fieldwear redefined. Pintuck detailing and subtle ruffles lend a distinctly feminine charm, while 100% cotton poplin and lightweight denim ensure breathability and movement.

It’s the kind of blouse that feels just as natural under a clays vest as it does under a blazer for brunch.

Field to frolic. Clays to cocktails. It’s not a tagline—it’s a design philosophy.

Designing for Legacy

In every stitch of this collection, you’ll find a quiet reverence for heritage. For the women who’ve walked the field before us. The ones who never needed their names etched in stone to leave a mark.

Fieldwear, when designed well, becomes more than practical—it becomes personal. These pieces aren’t just about this season. They’re the kind of garments you keep. Reach for. Pass on.

They’re for the woman who understands that the most powerful elegance is the kind that endures.
