How to Dress Like You Summer in the Hamptons, According to Hannah Berner
It’s no secret that Lululemon has earned cult status far beyond the gym. With its irresistibly soft fabrics, sculpting fits, and performance-driven designs, the brand has long held a top spot in my wardrobe, whether I’m lounging at home, grabbing brunch, or packing for a weekend getaway. So of course, when it came time to celebrate the Align’s tenth birthday, I jumped at the chance to mark the pivotal moment.
To commemorate a decade of the beloved legging, the brand brought its signature style to the Hamptons with the Summer Club—a chic seasonal pop-up hosted in Water Mill from June 27 through July 6. The brand transformed a private house into a full-on wellness retreat, complete with a pool, tennis courts, daily workout classes, and a sprawling lawn for yoga and Pilates. Guests sign up for luxe, celebrity-led sessions, enjoy refreshments, and move through curated workouts in coordinated Lululemon sets as far as the eye can see.
The standout hosts? Olympic champion Suni Lee, celebrity trainer Dani Coleman (yes, Jennifer Aniston’s go-to), and none other than Hannah Berner—the quick-witted comedian, bestselling author, podcast powerhouse (Giggly Squad, Berner Phone), and now, Lululemon’s newest ambassador. While many know her for her viral punchlines and on-screen performances, few realize she’s a former competitive tennis player. And when I say she’s got game? Let’s just say I walked off the court breathless—and thoroughly impressed.
I headed to the Summer Club to experience a tennis session with Berner firsthand, and to put Lululemon’s latest Align collection through its paces. After the class, I caught up with her to talk about her lifelong love of tennis, how she styles Lululemon on and off the court, and the summer pieces topping her wishlist.

“Not to be annoying with puns, but this partnership feels like the perfect match,” Berner says. “It’s a dream to partner with Lululemon, given my background as a former athlete turned comedian. After my tennis career ended and I was working a desk job, I never thought I would be modeling activewear. It feels nostalgic and beautiful to be playing tennis again in Lululemon gear. I love the quality, performance, and playfulness of the brand.”
You’re leading a tennis lesson for the Lululemon Summer Club—what kind of energy should attendees expect from a Berner-style court session?“I’m so excited to teach tennis at the Summer Club!” she exclaims. “I come from a family of coaches, so I love teaching tennis to players of all levels. I’m going to be cracking jokes but also giving tons of tennis tips. My goal is that everyone leaves the court feeling more confident. I will also have my partner in crime, Madison Appel, teaching with me,” Berner adds.
You were a competitive tennis player long before stepping into comedy. How does it feel to return to the court with Lululemon?“It’s a full-circle moment with cuter outfits. Tennis has really shaped me into the person I am today, and I firmly believe that I wouldn’t be as successful in stand-up if I hadn’t had a prior career in tennis. When I wear Lululemon, I feel nostalgic, and it reminds me of how much I love playing sports and how it helps me forget my problems.”
What are your current go-to pieces for tennis, and how would you describe your personal style when you’re on the court?“It is so important to feel comfortable and confident on the court,” she declares. “I like wearing classic colors like white, navy, green, and black. I don’t always like to wear tight outfits, so I will always grab the Lightweight Tennis Crewneck T-Shirt with Align shorts. I also live in the Tennis Club layered Long-Sleeve T-Shirt. For playing matches, I look intimidating in the Pace Rival Skirt and Court Rival Tennis Jacket. The Bubble-Hem High-Rise Skirt is also very trendy.”
Do you gravitate toward any specific Lululemon colors or collections?“I’m in my Pool Party Blue era,” Berner admits. “It suits my skin tone well, according to TikTok. I also love Legacy Green; it’s very old money. I have also been wearing the Align Palazzo pant on stage because they’re so comfortable, but they look like work pants. I’m also obsessed with flare pants right now.”
Lululemon is known for combining performance and comfort. How does that philosophy play into your lifestyle, both on and off the court?“If an outfit isn’t comfortable, I don’t care how cute it is; I’m not wearing it! I love that Lululemon combines performance and comfort. The brand doesn’t take itself too seriously, and just like my comedy, it wants you to feel good.”

The refreshed line now includes leggings without a front seam, and honestly, I’m obsessed. The fit remains as flattering as ever—and yes, I have multiple colors lined up in my drawer. The signature fabric still feels like a second skin, but this time, it comes in Pool Party—a classic court-ready blue that I’ll be wearing all summer long. Pair it with a chic visor and your comfiest sneakers, and suddenly, you’re channeling country-club chic.
