Description
Summary:"From starch whites at Wimbledon to bold statement pieces on and off the court, the history of tennis has long been intertwined with fashion. In this thoughtfully curated celebration of the sport, bestselling author Sunita Kumar Nair explores the sport's most stylish moments, legendary players, and the designers who have shaped its aesthetic. With archival photography, exclusive interviews, and insider commentary, this book traces the evolution of tennis style-from the traditional ensembles of early champions to the revolutionary looks of Serena Williams, Roger Federer, and beyond. It also highlights how tennis fashion has influenced global trends, from preppy elegance to high-fashion collaborations with brands like Nike, Lacoste, and Louis Vuitton. Sunita Kumar Nair is a fashion and creative director who has worked in the industry for almost 14 years with leading publications such as Sunday Times Style, WWD, and W magazine in New York. Working in the highest echelons of her industry, her clients have included Christian Louboutin, Estée Lauder, and Louis Vuitton.
