What to Wear to Wimbledon

Strawberries and cream. Pimms in the sun. That quiet hush before the first serve.

Wimbledon brings the stripes, the whites, the people watching and the perfect excuse to dress up a little. It’s not quite a dress code, but everyone knows the look. Fresh, easy and made for a day that might involve Centre Court, the Hill or one very well timed glass of champagne.

And if there was ever a day for outfits you’ll love, it’s this one.

Wimbledon Whites

White always has its moment at Wimbledon. Crisp but not too serious. Summery but not too sweet.

Think broderie, cotton, soft tiered shapes and clean midi dresses. It’s the closest thing to Wimbledon tennis clothes without looking like you’re about to pick up a racket. Add gold toned jewellery, a small bag and shoes you can wear from the queue to the last train home.

Soft Stripes, Strong Serve

Stripes and Wimbledon just work. They nod to the court, feel fresh in the sun and give the whole outfit that easy SW19 mood.

A striped midi dress is the one to wear when you want something simple but still full of feeling. Add sunglasses, a small shoulder bag and flats or low sandals. If the forecast is doing that very British thing, bring a soft layer for later. A good one for Wimbledon outfit ideas that feel playful without losing the mood.

A Polka Dot Moment

If stripes feel too expected, go polka dot. Still classic. Still playful. A little bit vintage in the best way.

A polka dot midi dress feels like a softer take on Wimbledon fashion, especially in white, navy or a sun ready neutral. Keep it simple with flats, sunglasses and a small bag. Navy and white feels very Wimbledon. Brown and cream feels softer. Red or green gives the outfit more energy.

Not Playing Dresses

Some days just aren’t dress days. Wimbledon still has room for that.

A wide leg jumpsuit feels right for a long day on the grounds: easy to sit in, easy to move in and still dressed up enough for the occasion. A short suit is another good option if you want something a little sharper. Think soft stripes, fresh neutrals or a summer colour that feels light rather than formal.

Your Wimbledon Outfit Questions, Answered

For most guests, there isn’t one strict dress code. Some areas have their own rules so check your ticket before getting ready. In general, Wimbledon outfits feel fresh, summery and a little more dressed up than your usual day out.

It depends where you’re sitting. Some areas are more relaxed, but a dress, jumpsuit or co ord will usually feel more in tune with the day.

Striped dresses, white dresses, polka dot midis and soft floral dresses all work well. Choose something you can sit, walk and spend the day in.

Sunglasses, a small bag, simple jewellery and a light layer. Nothing too fussy. Just pieces that make the day feel easy.
