Wimbledon Gets a Makeover
Things are getting a little more colorful at Wimbledon.
After over a century of imposing an all-white dress code, the conservative English tennis institution is allowing fashion designer Ralph Lauren to outfit all of their on-court officials. Umpires, ball boys and ball girls will don navy blue Polo Ralph Lauren pants, shorts, skirts and blazers. The clothes will feature Polo's signature pony on the breast pocket as well as the Wimbledon logo of two crossed racquets.
Unfortunately players like Andre Agassi, who will be making his 14th appearance at the tournament, will still have to abide by the all-white rule.
For the rest of us, Ralph Lauren will offer a line of official Wimbledon clothing available for purchase online and in stores throughout the world.
