Wimbledon is one of our favourite sporting events of the year – and not just because of Roger Federer (swoon). Arguably the most fashionable tournament there is, Wimbledon style is impeccable, effortless, and quintessentially British: it’s a who’s-who of fashionistas and trendsetters at center court this summer.
Whether you’re lucky enough to be heading to Wimbledon – or are glued to the action via the television – there are certain trends you’re guaranteed to notice in the stands. Grab a Pimms and see how many you can spot…
Prints. Prints Everywhere
If there’s one thing the tennis wives and girlfriends love, it’s a printed tea-dress. Florals, polka dots, paisley or check – whatever the pattern of choice, the versatility of a loose dress in light, summer-friendly fabric is perfect for all day wear.
If you can’t steal Kim Murray’s wonderfully swishy hair or tennis player hubby, you can steal her style with the Mara Hoffman aloe-print shirt dress.
Quirky, Don’t-Look-At-Me-No-Look-At-Me Sunglasses
Wimbledon is the place to see and be seen, and paparazzi are often out in full force to capture the joy (and anguish) of the crowds. If you don’t want to be papped, or fancy playing celebrity for the day, a pair of statement sunnies is a must.
You’ll be as enthusiastic about your designer shades as Niall is – discover styles from Ray-Ban at MyBag now.
Nude Accessories
A buttery-soft leather bag in muted nude is a must at Wimbledon – unobtrusive enough not to draw eyes away from the game, but opulent enough to ooze quiet luxury.
Get nude – with your accessories – thanks to Aspinal of London’s pre-AW16 collection.
White Isn’t Just for the Players
Unlike at a wedding, it’s totally fine to wear white at Wimbledon when you’re a guest – it’s not just for the players anymore. Channel your inner Sienna Miller and rock head-to-toe white with a fierce red lip and sassy pair of tortoiseshell shades for summertime chic.
Give Sienna a run for her money with these Wimbledon-inspired accessories.
Traditional Timepieces
There’s a time and a place for in-your-face jewellery – but it’s just not Wimbledon. Instead, it’s all about those traditional, timeless pieces that are noiselessly luxe and seriously stylish – think leather or bracelet-link watches a la Kim.
Cheer on your favourite players with a gorgeous watch on your wrist – we’re loving these styles from Daniel Wellington.
