How sport became the season’s most stylish inspiration, from the pitch to the paddock

24/06/2026

With the World Cup setting the pace for summer, sport is once again taking over the conversation. But its influence has been moving through fashion and lifestyle for much longer than one tournament. With the elegance of Wimbledon and Roland Garros and the high-speed glamour of Formula 1, sport has become one of fashion’s most natural sources of inspiration.

Grand slam style

Tennis remains one of the strongest style references of the season. Crisp whites, polos, lightweight knits and clean loafers bring that fresh court-side feeling into everyday dressing.

Off-duty fan

This season, supporting the Red Devils is less about face paint and football shirts, and more about clever (colour) combinations. Black, yellow and red step onto the field, proving that national pride can be surprisingly chic.

Race day energy

Formula 1 has made the paddock one of fashion’s new runways. With style icons like Kim Kardashian and Alexandra Saint Mleux bringing celebrity, elegance and personal style to the Grand Prix weekends, F1 glamour has become a trend in its own right.

Sporty living

The sporty spice mood is moving indoors too. Interiors are borrowing from tennis clubs, locker rooms and poolside resorts. Bringing a more playful athletic energy into the home.
