All are welcome is the main message behind the Lucky in Love Tennis and Fashion Community Fun Day, a collaborative effort between USTA Florida and the USTA that will be held Sunday, Nov. 17, 2019.
The tennis fun will take place from 4:30 p.m. – 7 p.m. at the USTA National Campus in Orlando. The community event will feature family tennis play, wheelchair tennis demonstrations, and an adaptive fashion exhibit. The exhibit will include menswear, womenswear, and specially designed garments for the Lucky in Love sponsored wheelchair tennis players.
The event is presented by tennis apparel company Lucky in Love and aims to bring awareness to adaptive fashion pioneered by Maria Torrealba and students from the Miami International University of Art & Design. Torrealba was a fashion student in her native country of Venezuela when she was the victim of an accident that left her in need of a wheelchair. She then moved to Miami where she graduated from the Miami International University of Art & Design. She developed a mission to have her fellow students create adaptive clothing to bring fashion, empowerment, & confidence to the wheelchair community.
