EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the 1960s, we are transported back to a time of elegance and style at Wimbledon. The fashion forecast for the prestigious tennis tournament is revealed by former champion Fred Perry himself, as he unveils his 1963 collection in London. Three stunning match pointers stand before us, showcasing the latest trends that will grace the courts. On the left, Felicity Fox exudes confidence in her gold-sashed Greek tunic made of pristine white Tricel fabric. With a daring side-split revealing golden shorts underneath, she epitomizes both grace and athleticism. In the center stands Sandra Russell, sporting a fitted white cotton tunic adorned with an eye-catching bib detail on its front. Her outfit exudes sophistication while allowing freedom of movement necessary for top-tier tennis players. Lastly, Judy Wilson captivates our attention with her finely-pleated white nylon Greek tunic cinched with a striking gold cord. This ensemble effortlessly combines comfort and style without compromising on femininity. As these three tennis queens present their outfits to us, it becomes clear that frillies are out this season; instead, they opt for cool Greek-inspired garments that perfectly complement their athletic prowess. This photograph captures not only an iconic moment in fashion history but also showcases how sports and style can seamlessly intertwine. It serves as a reminder of how even decades later we can still draw inspiration from past trends while celebrating individuality and innovation within our own wardrobe choices today.
