RALPH LAUREN

Polo Ralph Lauren is the first designer in the history of The Championships to partner with The All England Lawn Tennis Club and outfit all Wimbledon on-court officials.

Launched in 2006, the uniforms for chair and line umpires feature classic navy blazers and cream-coloured trousers. Ball persons are outfitted in signature navy polos and sporty skirts or shorts. The Polo-designed uniforms, accented in the Club's official colors of purple and green, recall an era of elegance in tennis and uphold the traditions of the institution of Wimbledon.

"What began as a collection of ties in 1967 has grown into an entire world, redefining international style. Polo has always stood for quality products, creating lifestyles and inviting people to take part in our dream." Ralph Lauren

The Polo Ralph Lauren tradition of luxury and time-honoured style continues. Inspired by the collaboration with Wimbledon, Polo Ralph Lauren introduces the Wimbledon Collection of casual yet elegant sportswear for men, women and children. For her, the Wimbledon Collection features skirts, pleated gauchos and luxury doeskin jackets as well as Wimbledon polos, vintage-inspired cable-knit cardigans and classic brushed-cotton trousers. For him, the luxury of English tennis is translated into handsome cashmere sweaters, wool flannel blazers and vintage linen trousers.

The Polo Ralph Lauren Wimbledon Collection is available at Ralph Lauren stores, The Centre Court Shop (Wimbledon), exclusive fashion stores and polo.com, and is supported by an international advertising campaign.
