what does one wear to Wimbledon?

[FrontRowFig]

arfarf.
Me and ds, and the forecast is HOT sun that day.

Corporate hospitality or punter?

erm

private individual.

i thank ew.

ds is promsising player or somesuch. hence

Comfortable shoes (wedges?), linen or other lightweight fabric. It's not dressy like Ascot or something. More like what you'd wear to a friend's summer party.

And a hat.

i dont wnat to look like the prawns you see on tv sweltering..

I last went in 1988. I think I need sleeves non?

Hat and sunglacks.Factor 25
School-run type dress. Ooh the Wallis one will be perfect!

Lol
i also noticed that KEW on their site has " school run" ( or did at the w/e) as a clothing type

oh yes look

I think they have spies on here

Hence the hat. One of those little battery fans can be useful.

Yes sleeves are a must.

On reflection, linen will probably crease too much but you don't want anything tight-fitting or man-made.

Right I need a hat then

Plagarists

lolol at Kew

and snort at ship ahoy
i love all that section

Yes hat with brow but not so big that you won't see the actual tennis.

I suit a baseball cap type of thing
nto a floppy " drippy mum" type.

or a panama mebbe

Panama - stylish yet trad.

yes I think. There is one in Next for a measly £10.
I will have a big sign

" oi oi mn its me"

I wore a pink jumper dress with metallic silver stripes...mind you it was 1982...

last year I wore a Marc Jacobs tea dress with wedges. The year before, white linen trousers & bright coloured tunic top with flip flops.

i tried that kew school run dress on, it was horrid. droopy.

Ah, DS also has those player tickets, FRF. Don't know about you (flicky hair, oversized sunglasses, something in linen should cover it). BUT if DS has LTA county sweatshirt or some such he should wear it. Will get fond smiles, admiring looks and kudos in the playtennis zone.

oh dear - I wore shorts and a vest top when I went (although a very long time ago) - maybe that's why I wasn't invited back...

mrs j you are so snazzy

Oh right re tennis gear

will tell him.
