7 of Wimbledon’s Most Fashionable Moments

Along with the Queen, red postboxes and a good cup of tea in a crisis, Wimbledon is a British institution. From the 27th June until the 10th July, tennis fever sweeps the nation as all eyes are glued to the courts – and not just for the serves…

We would argue that Wimbledon is the most stylish sporting event ever – and we’ve got the evidence to prove it. Read on to discover our favourite Wimbledon style moments so far, and why it deserves to be crowned the most fashionable event you’ll attend this summer…

Unlike football and other major sporting events, Wimbledon is a time to dress up and look sharp. Take a leaf from Bradley Cooper and Gerard Butler’s book, and make sure you’re suited and booted if you’re attending the matches this year. (Psst: need a hand with the dress code etiquette? Read our occasion wear guide here.)

Bjorn Borg may have won Wimbledon five consecutive times, but we think it’s his hair that’s really stolen the show.

Roger Federer in Metallics…

Roger Federer is no wallflower – both on the tennis court, and in the style stakes. Obviously realising that metallics are always on trend, Federer caused a stir back in 2009 when we wore gold lamé-accented kit to Centre Court.

…and Serena Williams in a Trench Coat

Serena Williams raised a few eyebrows in 2008, donning a white trench coat, bandana and gold hoop earrings for her warm-up against Kaia Kanepi – which she then went on to win.

Kim Murray

Kim Murray – and her wonderfully swishy hair – is arguably one of the best-dressed TWAGs (tennis wives and girlfriends) around. Always dressed to impress, whether she’s supporting her husband or simply papped out and about, Andy Murray’s better half never fails to bring some serious style to the game.

There was a cuteness overload in the stands last year, when David Beckham and son Romeo wore matching blue suits to watch Andy Murray play Vasek Pspisil.
