What to wear to Wimbledon in your mid fifties

6 replies

ForBusyOliveBear · Yesterday 21:19

I’m looking for suggestions of what to wear to Wimbledon, I’m trying to move away from my previous few summer’s uniform of midi dresses.
I am mid 50’s, need petite range and want to look as nice as I can as it’s a special day for my DH and I.

Have a look at odd muse

I can’t think of anything nicer than a dress - whatever length, for long hours of sitting in warm weather. Much nicer than most summer trousers.

I like this very much:

Or this, if you prefer a different shape:

And this is excellent:

(I haven’t bought from this brand but the clothes seem well designed, in nice fabrics. You could probably find good separates here too, if you’d really prefer them.)

Those are all great suggestions. I will just add this from Reiss, in their petite range.

Have you been to Wimbledon before?
You might need to factor in practicalities like comfy footwear, a hat for sun protection and something to throw over shoulders/arms so you don’t get sunburn - or a Mac etc if it’s raining.

It will depend on the weather, might be lashing with rain or roasting. It was both 2 years ago when I was lucky to be there twice in the same week.
Comfortable shoes are essential whatever you decide on.
Have a great time.

We’re going to need some more information. Where do you normally shop? What is your preferred style? What court are you on ? Last year I was on court 1 quite low down and nearly fried but my friends were high up and shaded.
