Wimbledon is back! But in case you can’t make it to Centre Court, these white pieces will add a touch of SW19 to your wardrobes.
Wimbledon is so much more than just the world’s greatest tennis competition. The two-week sporting tournament held in London at the beginning of July has become synonymous with many things: strawberries and cream, Pimm’s in the sunshine, the queue and the fashion offering both on and off the court. From the Ralph Lauren uniforms, to stylish appearances of Hollywood’s biggest names in the Royal Box and, of course, not forgetting the players themselves, Wimbledon is as much about style as it is about sport.
For the players, a strict all-white dress code is adhered to, but that doesn’t mean that players can’t be inventive with what they wear. We only need look back to Serena Williams’ chosen outfit in 2019 – her Nike dress embellished with Swarovski crystals – to know that a flair for fashion is just as important on Centre Court as a forehand down the line.
Roger Federer has even launched his own limited edition white trainer with running brand On to give fans who are missing out on the action a chance to feel just a bit more ‘Wimbledon’.
When it comes to those attending Wimbledon, well that’s a spectator sport all in itself. Over the years there have been sartorial (and real) queens of Wimbledon. Princess Diana long led the way for occasion dressing at SW19, with Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle serving up equally elegant looks in recent years.
Frankly, nothing makes us want to chuck on something white more than the promise of tennis. So, whether you’re in the market for a new white dress, a shirt or even a tennis-inspired skirt, these are the pieces ready to give your wardrobe a Wimbledon overhaul.
