Take a look at the coolest tennis outfits that'll leave you only serving aces.

The tennis outfit has long been its distinct style, dictated by a set of relatively unshakeable rules to maintain the aesthetic of the game. At first a sign of wealth, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/history-of-tennis-whites-trend-summer-2021" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tennis whites</a> have entered the public fashion space and have shown up in a variety of ways from <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/tenniscore-preppy-style-trend" target="_blank" rel="noopener">street style to athleisure</a>, as athletes and non-athletes alike make the dress code their own. With the recent tennis tournament at <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/best-dressed-celebrities-at-wimbledon-2023-tennis-style-spotted" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Wimbledon</a>, too, tennis style has reentered the trend cycle as a stylish and sleek take on activewear.&nbsp;
The color white was initially chosen for practical reasons but also as a status symbol. For those wealthy enough to keep their nice clothes clean, white outfits wouldn&rsquo;t get dirty and they would retain their bright white color. While the dress code remains slightly rigid (tournaments used to fine players for not wearing all white), new takes on the classic style have given the tennis outfit a fresh new look. Think <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/how-to-style-pleated-skirt-fall-winter-2021-olivia-rodrigo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pleated skirts</a>, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/history-polo-shirt-ralph-lauren-lacoste" target="_blank" rel="noopener">polo tops</a>, and athletic dresses with a new burst of color. The perfect tennis outfit relies on playing into the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/preppy-trends-summer-loafers-cardigans-blazer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">preppiness</a> and air of sophistication that has long defined the style, and maybe even putting on that diamond tennis bracelet that may seem entirely impractical for playing.&nbsp;
Now that <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/naomi-osaka-tag-heuer-interview-tennis-activism" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tennis</a> outfits have become more accessible as a style even for those who have never picked up a racket, it&rsquo;s easier than ever to look like you&rsquo;ve just laced up your white sneakers and are heading to the country club. Keep scrolling for some inspiration on how to style the best tennis outfit to serve on and off the court.&nbsp;
