*2025* 9 outfits! What to wear to lawn bowls party?❤️👇🏼

Wondering what to wear to a lawn bowls party or barefoot bowls?

For a casual lawn bowls party, opt for neat, comfortable clothing like a polo or t-shirt with shorts or trousers, paired with flat-soled shoes like trainers (avoid restrictive jeans!).

For formal or competitive play, check the club’s dress code, as it often requires specific colors like white and more tailored attire

Speaking of a sport that’s played in an elegant and easy-going environment, the lawn bowl is the hidden gem for me.

Featuring the social side, gamesmanship, and perfectly moderate exercise, this is how you make new friends and have fun most refreshingly!

And guess what, Lawn bowling is surprisingly a perfect party theme.

Ahead, I’ve gathered 9 outfits if you are wondering what to wear to a lawn bowls party.

Enjoy and pin some cute looks! <3

1. Casual lawn bowl party look

While lawn bowling is not a very physically demanding sport, it can be exhausting because it requires a lot of coordination of different body parts.

So yes, I’d say dress in light layers so you can easily take the clothes on and off.

For the party attire, think of a cute off-shoulder dress, a crop top, or a linen co-ord set that looks as cute as it’s breathable.

❤️Girl’s fashion hack #1:

Use nail polish clear coat on fraying thread ends to stop further unraveling until you can properly repair the item!

2. Lawn bowls dress-up ideas: Print shirt

To stay cool for a lawn bowls party, you just can’t go wrong with a statement print shirt.

For guys, the straw hat and delightful floral shirt work wonders.

Think twice when you wear the exactly same shade of green as the lawn unless you want to be the chameleon!

❤️Girl’s fashion hack #2:

Prevent button-down shirts from gapping between buttons by using double-sided fashion tape <3

3. Denim shorts for the lawn bowl party

Depending on whether there’s a specific dress code, you can always dress your usual clothes for the lawn bowl.

Think of a sleek white shirt and denim shorts.

I will avoid long jeans – it’s just too hot and not stretchy enough to play the barefoot bowl.

If you want extra coverage, go for the leggings or yoga pants instead.

❤️Girl’s fashion hack #3:

Rub clear deodorant on the inside hem of pants/skirts to prevent thigh chafing. ❤️

4. Summery barefoot bowl outfit

For a wild and summery barefoot bowl, I’d say go wild with the hats and shirts!

An all-over watermelon shirt and short set and a tie-dye hat is always a good idea.

❤️Girl’s fashion hack #4:

Use rolled-up magazine pages to maintain boot shape when storing – truly work wonders imo lol

5. Thigh-high socks for barefoot bowls

For those who have been to barefoot bowls under the baking sun, you will know how hot that can be if you stand there for a long while.

If you want to feel good and look good at the same time, well, consider matching your cute polo dress with white thigh-high socks.

Trust me, this look is ultra-flattering!

❤️Girl’s fashion hack #5:

Stretch tight shoes by wearing them with thick socks and blowing them with a hairdryer!

6. All-white lawn bowl party

As the saying goes “If time were a color, I bet it would be a tasteful off-white”.

Is that just me but an all-white lawn bowl party just looks so perfect and elegant all together?

Whether that’s a birthday party or bridal shower, getting your family and friends dressed up in white is one of the coolest yet most effortless dress codes ever.

A white party is always lighthearted and purely enjoyable – especially with the lawn!

❤️Girl’s fashion hack #6:

Quick fix – Brighten yellowed white clothing by soaking in a solution of lemon juice and hot water!

7. Retro lawn bowl party outfit

Speaking of a retro lawn bowl party, well, it’s time to be extra creative!

Depending on which era the party theme is, you can have loads of ideas from paisley dresses, and polka dots to long-beaded necklaces and flapper dresses!

For guys, a classic suspender outfit is such a failproof.

Together with the boater hat, this is how you stay preppy for the game day!

❤️Girl’s fashion hack #7:

Whenever I feel bloated, I’ll always use a rubber band to loop through a button hole and around the button for a temporary fix to pants that are too tight!

8. Wear the sunnies!

The lawn bowl party seems mild but still you will have to spend hours outdoors!

Wearing sunnies and applying sunscreen is always a good idea.

And when in doubt, have the high pony so you can enjoy the lawn bowl without fixing the hair at the time!

❤️ Girl’s fashion hack#8: Keep Jewelry Organized While Traveling hack

Thread necklaces through drinking straws to prevent tangling – simply clasp the necklace and thread the chain through a straw.
