EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the annals of tennis history, the elegant and enigmatic Suzanne Lenglen strides confidently onto the grass court, her gaze fixed on the horizon as she showcases the latest in tennis fashion. The year is 1930, and Lenglen, a French tennis legend and six-time Wimbledon champion, has teamed up with the renowned department store Selfridges to present a stunning collection of tennis wear for women. The image captures Lenglen in one of the chic outfits from the collaboration, a sleek and sophisticated ensemble that embodies the spirit of the era. The dress, featuring a fitted bodice and a full, pleated skirt, is both functional and fashionable, designed to allow for ease of movement on the court while also exuding an air of elegance and grace. The crisp white fabric, paired with a contrasting belt and collar, creates a striking visual effect that is both timeless and modern. Lenglen's impeccable style and poise are on full display in this photograph, which captures not only her athletic prowess but also her innate sense of fashion and flair. The image serves as a testament to the enduring influence of tennis on fashion trends and the power of sportswear to inspire and captivate. With her innovative designs and unwavering commitment to excellence, Suzanne Lenglen continues to be a source of inspiration for tennis players and fashion enthusiasts alike, more than 90 years after this iconic photograph was taken.
