The countdown to Roland Garros 2025 is on, and while the world’s top players gear up to battle it out on the famous red clay, we’re just as excited about what they’ll be wearing. The French Open is renowned for its effortless blend of heritage and modernity, making it the most stylish Grand Slam of the year. From bold colour palettes to throwback silhouettes, here’s our forecast for the tennis fashion trends set to dominate Paris in 2025.
Classic French Elegance Meets Sport-Tech Innovation
Paris is the epicenter of fashion, and Roland Garros has always reflected that with its chic-meets-athletic aesthetic. In 2025, expect players to blend timeless elegance with modern, high-performance materials. Think sleek, minimalist silhouettes infused with cutting-edge fabric technology—moisture-wicking, breathable, and even UV-resistant for those long clay-court battles.
Trend Alert: Expect structured pleats, refined monochrome outfits, and luxe details like embroidered logos and tailored cuts.
Earthy Clay-Toned Colour Palettes
While white is king at Wimbledon, Roland Garros is where color comes to play. Inspired by the tournament’s iconic red clay courts, 2025 will see warm, earthy tones dominate tennis fashion. Expect shades like terracotta, burnt orange, clay brown, and muted rust to appear across both apparel and accessories.
Trend Alert: Tennis dresses and skirts in rich, earthy hues, offset with contrasting pops of navy, deep greens, or crisp whites for that signature French Open flair.
Retro Revival – 70s & 90s Tennis Fashion Throwbacks
Tennis fashion is having a retro moment, and Roland Garros 2025 will embrace the best of both the 70s and 90s. Expect a return of high-waisted tennis skirts, polo collars, zip-up jackets, and slightly oversized silhouettes.
Trend Alert: Striped tube socks, vintage-inspired warm-up sets, and sporty-chic cropped tanks will make a comeback, giving a nod to legends like Björn Borg and Steffi Graf.
Statement Accessories – Sporty Meets Luxe
No Roland Garros look is complete without the right accessories. In 2025, expect a mix of functional and fashion-forward accessories, from sleek, oversized visors to luxury branded sweatbands.
Trend Alert: Designer collaboration sneakers, custom logo visors, and elegant yet sporty tote bags will dominate courtside style.
Sustainability on Center Court
As sustainability continues to shape the fashion industry, eco-conscious tennis wear will take center stage at Roland Garros 2025. Brands are focusing on recycled fabrics, biodegradable materials, and ethical production to create high-performance pieces with a lower environmental footprint.
Trend Alert: Organic cotton polos, recycled nylon skirts, and biodegradable performance sneakers are set to be tournament staples.
Off-Court Looks: Tenniscore Goes Parisian Chic
Roland Garros isn’t just about on-court fashion—it’s also a hotspot for off-duty tennis style. In 2025, the tenniscore trend will evolve with a Parisian twist, featuring effortless layering, structured blazers over tennis dresses, and preppy knitwear worn casually courtside.
Trend Alert: Expect to see players and spectators alike rocking pleated skirts, varsity-inspired knit vests, and stylish trainers as they sip espressos at the Roland Garros village.
