What To Wear To Us Open Tennis
Keeping the Queens, New York location in mind, Brown advises that “lighter colors and fabrics are key. It’s humid at the end of the summer, so keeping comfort in mind is important.” Breathable materials like linen and cotton are great choices and you should also come prepared for cooler evening temperatures. “A light summer sweater or jacket is good to have on hand for evening matches,” Brown says.

Tenniscore stays trending for a reason. Equally sporty and chic, using this viral aesthetic as a blueprint for your U.S. Open outfit is an easy way to nail the event’s vibe. We especially love the way a collared polo shirt with contrasting piping spices up a pristine pleated tennis skirt.

Fun fact: ‘fits that pay homage to classic tennis looks work just as well as the real thing when worn in lightweight, luxurious fabrics.
