-Hi, we're here at Toby Tucker with Toby Tucker Peters herself,...

-Hi, we're here at Toby Tucker with Toby Tucker Peters herself, the designer. And Toby, one of the coolest things as I walk here on the show is finding some of the, like smaller companies-- -Right. -that have chic lines that are really fashion-inspired for the golf course. -Well, I'm definitely inspired by the runway. I'm lucky enough to have attended many fashion shows on scratch leather and Style Magazine. So, some of the elements from the runway, I'm bringing to the fairway. One of those elements would be color, really bright beautiful colors. -Lots of colors. -Lots of color but paired back with things like-- like a dark gray tuxedo stripe, women tuxedo stripe on the side just to give it that little kind of edge and be a little bit more modern. I'm also doing tee holders on the back pocket. I break a thousand tees. -Me too. -So, I need a lot. I can do them with glass but I'm a tee breaker so I need a lot of tees on-- on the back pocket. And really kind of a lot of fashion is very functional and this is my functional-- -Right there. -day to evening on the golf course, long and appropriate after golf. -[unk]. -Take off the bottom and it's a nice, cute short pattern shirt. -So, you can wear it out-- -You can wear it out. You know, you walk-- -from a date plan to like 19th hole. -Absolutely off the 18th green and straight tomorrow. -To 19th hole. -To the 19th hole. -Exactly. -I kind of-- I love it. -And, I did some great shirts that have a lot of technical details to them. Again, the tee holders, I find-- I was kicking my tees and ponytail-- -Yes, I do it all the time. -which just stab yourself to the head. -Uh-huh. -It's just not a comfortable feeling. -No. -So, easy access to tees. Things like lots of-- I cut down on the material. I hate to swing and have all bunch of material. So, things are very streamline. They're very formed-- form-fitting and very flattering for a lot of body types. -And, I love the jacket you're wearing. -Thank you. -You have in all different colors here behind here. -Yeah. -You have-- -You know, purple is for huge [unk] for me and this [unk] which has this great shine to it. -The dance. -No, I wear this with a pair of jeans and then a t-shirt. I often travel on this a lot, you know. It's got kind of a lower back-- -You just kind of dresses up the outfit that *** together. -Close it all together. Close it all together. -And, you said it's water? -It's water-resistant, yeah. And, people love to kind of dress their looks because there's a lot of in golf right now. I think people are kind of going back to be a little bit more traditional. People don't want to be dazzled with rhinestone kind of chic girly [unk] looking teenager like things. These are definitely girls that are ready to play golf. -Very refine. Very, you know, feminine and sophisticated there. -Thank you. -So, watch out. -Thank you. -Thank you so much, Toby.
