Wimbledon, the oldest and most prestigious tennis tournament in the world, is not just about thrilling matches and legendary players. It’s also a quintessential social event on the British summer calendar, where fashion takes center stage. Whether you're attending as a die-hard tennis fan or simply enjoying the atmosphere, dressing appropriately for Wimbledon is a must. Here's a guide from us to help you ace your outfit for the event.
Wimbledon’s style is elegant and traditional, echoing the tournament’s long history. Think sophisticated, yet comfortable. Light, airy fabrics are perfect for the time of year and classic cuts will keep you looking polished.
For Men: Opt for tailored chinos or linen trousers paired with a crisp shirt. A lightweight blazer can add a touch of class and is perfect for cooler moments.
For Women: Summer dresses are a popular choice. Think midi or tea-length dresses in light, breathable fabrics. Pair with a cardigan or a light jacket for a chic layered look.
Wimbledon has a strict dress code for players, requiring all-white attire, but spectators can enjoy more flexibility. Nevertheless, it’s a good idea to stick to a classic, understated palette.
Colours: Pastels, neutrals, and soft hues are always a hit. Think pale blues, soft pinks, and classic whites. These colours not only look fresh but also keep you cool under the summer sun.
Patterns: Subtle prints like florals, stripes, or polka dots can add a fun twist to your outfit without overpowering the look.
No Wimbledon outfit is complete without the perfect hat. At Hicks & Brown, we believe that the right hat can elevate your style while offering protection from the sun.
For Men: The Holkham Panama hat is a timeless choice. Its lightweight Ecuadorian straw material and wide brim provide excellent UPF50 sun protection while exuding a sophisticated charm.
For Women: A wide-brimmed straw hat or a chic boater hat can be both stylish and functional. These hats pair beautifully with summer dresses and offer ample shade.
Comfort is key when it comes to choosing footwear for Wimbledon, especially since you may be walking on grass and uneven surfaces.
For Men: Loafers or boat shoes are ideal. They’re comfortable for walking and add a smart touch to your outfit.
For Women: Wedges or block-heeled sandals are a practical choice. They offer stability on grassy areas and are more comfortable than stilettos for a long day.
The right accessories can pull your outfit together while adding a touch of personal flair.
Sunglasses: A pair of stylish sunglasses is a must for sunny days. Choose a classic shape like aviators or wayfarers for a timeless look.
Bag: A small to medium-sized handbag or a crossbody bag is perfect for carrying essentials without being cumbersome.
Jewellery: Keep it simple and elegant. Delicate pieces like a fine chain necklace or small hoop earrings can add a touch of sparkle without overwhelming your look.
Check the Weather: Wimbledon weather can be unpredictable. Bringing a lightweight jacket or a stylish umbrella can help you stay prepared for any sudden showers.
Dress Code: While there isn’t a strict dress code for spectators, smart casual is generally expected. Avoid overly casual items like jeans and trainers to stay in line with the event’s elegant atmosphere.
With these tips, you'll be ready to enjoy Wimbledon in style. Remember, the key to a great outfit is feeling comfortable and confident. So, choose pieces that reflect your personal style while embracing the timeless elegance that Wimbledon is known for.
