Representing the pinnacle of tennis excellence, Wimbledon is a major moment in the British sporting calendar. Every year, attendees flock to SW19 in their espadrilled hordes, and for 2025, we cannot wait to spotlight out the very best courtside looks.
If you're lucky enough to be heading down to South West London for a day of royal-spotting, Pimm's-sipping, and cream-savouring, you'll need a top-tier outfit to (game, set) match.
What is the Wimbledon dress code?
There is actually no official dress code for spectators at Wimbledon, however smart dressing is encouraged. Unlike the competitors who are subjected to a rather strict dress code, hence 'Tennis Whites', those sitting courtside needn't restrict their colour palette.
The vibe is polished, with many attendees opting for elegant midi dresses, sharp suits or cool-girl jumpsuits in crisp white shades to echo the players. Hats and sunglasses are advisable as it may be reasonably hot and first-timers ought to know that that there will be both stripes and polka dots aplenty.
