EIGHTEEN EVES on course & on trend

Nicola Pawlowski aka ‘Nicci’ is an astute businesswoman and the brainchild behind Australian golfing accessories and apparel brand Eighteen Eves. Upon joining her first golf club Nicci noticed that there wasn’t a lot of golf gear that she personally found feminine and/or flattering. Come 2013 she threw her proverbial hat in the design ring and launched her now flourishing golf label Eighteen Eves.

The global pandemic temporarily stalled her business plans, but once things returned to the ‘new norm’, Eighteen Eves saw a huge increase in demand for their top quality products.

In fact, Nicci was recently referred to as the “Lorna Jane of golf” in an article by the Gold Coast Bulletin. Although it’s a big claim, it is precisely her aim. When we asked if her brand was looking to sponsor more female players, Nicci responded.

“Our purpose is to inspire more women to play more golf. Ideally, we want to discover exciting and capitating players that spark the interest of young women to take up the sport”.

The current collection from Eighteen Eves offers up a stylish selection of women’s leather golf gloves, visors, relaxed leisurewear, colourful skorts and a bright array of matching hats & gloves in fun and fashionable prints. All geared to help you create individual flair on the fairways.

Eighteen Eves signature women's golf glove range are made from high-quality, cabretta leather, with Italian Lycra to provide flexibility. Plus, they cater for left hand golfers and women who wear pairs.

Nicci plays golf regularly at Emerald Lakes on the Gold Coast. This is where she often draws design inspiration from her sub-tropical surrounds, the lively club atmosphere and its strong community feel. She adds that the bistro here has the best chicken parmi’s on the GC if you’re wanting a hearty feed.

When asked what’s next in 2021 for Eighteen Eves, Nicci remarks that a golfing trip to play The Hills in Queenstown, New Zealand would be amazing (and we wholeheartedly agree) should a South Pacific travel bubble open sometime soon.

Fans of the Eighteen Eves brand can expect to see an expansion of product offerings available in the coming months. Think cute matching skort and shirt sets and a fresh run of prints adorning their signature leather gloves. Watch this space.
