If sweatshirts and tracksuits represented the pandemic aesthetic, the tennis court defines post lockdown fashion. First of all, there is no doubt that in 2021 he tennis became more and more popular. During the quarantine, in fact, many have approached this socially distanced sport to be practiced outdoors. Regardless of how much having made it to the Wimbledon final with Matteo Berrettini last July attracted a lot of attention to this sport also by Italians, who have always been more and more oriented towards football.
Meanwhile world champions like Venus Williams e Naomi Osaka have signed fashion collaborations. The first created a capsule with her brand EleVen by Venus in agreement with Carbon 38 of garments inspired by her legendary career in the field (SAVE THE DATE: at the cinema in January 2022, the appointment with the film A Winning Family – King Richard, the story of Venus and Serena Williams and their father / coach played by Will Smith), while the latter worked with Levi’s to create a new collection created from recycled jackets and jeans.
On social media, meanwhile, the aesthetics of the tennis universe, made up of visors and socks, sneakers and pleated miniskirts, polo shirts and minidresses, has left its mark. It didn’t take long because on TikTok, after the normcore and the cottagecore, the turn of the Tenniscore came, from the DNA preppy sporty. Let’s clarify immediately that being an athlete is not a necessary condition to make the trend your own. Tennis is the 2021 evolution of athleisure which is normally worn on the field, but which absolutely flaunts off.
And the signs that the trend has crushed the match point they come, of course, from celebs. Miley Cyrus in Los Angeles she was spotted with an (important) detail that made her enter the fashion tennis club by law for that 80’s vintage Chanel belt bag with rackets woven with the iconic logo of the maison (sold for about 5 thousand dollars on the websites second hand).
While the protagonist of Bridgerton, Phoebe Dynevor, showed up in London in Girlfriend Collective sports bra and Ralph Lauren Wimbledon Championships shorts. To complete the Tenniscore outfit, the Rowing Blazers peaked cap with the inscription Tennis Anyone?
But it is Bella Hadid to win first place in the tailoring tournament: in New York the model wore a Lacoste tennis skirt combined with a white top and bra. She completed the outfit with a pair of Nike Air Max sneakers, an oversized red tote bag and vintage Dior sunglasses.
Bella’s sporty outfit is the latest proof that confirms that tennis goes beyond the average athleisure look. Unlike leggings and sports bra that can also be worn blindly before going to the gym, a tennis-inspired suit reveals a more refined mood thanks to its preppy DNA.
In the gallery we have selected some trendy ideas for those who, even if they do not intend to get on a racket and take the field, love to get involved with fashion trends.
