What to wear for Roland-Garros?

Roland-Garros is one of the rare sporting events where tailoring feels just as important as the tennis itself. Between the clay courts, Parisian terraces and hospitality lounges, the atmosphere sits somewhere between classic sporting elegance and relaxed summer sophistication. When deciding what to wear for Roland-Garros, lightweight tailoring and refined textures work best. The goal is to look polished without appearing overly formal. Elegant enough for the occasion, but effortless enough for a long afternoon in the Paris sun.

Why this outfit works?

Roland-Garros has a unique dress code atmosphere. Guests often move between matches, lunch terraces and hospitality areas, which makes relaxed tailoring ideal. This outfit works because it combines classic menswear codes with lighter textures and softer colours suited for Parisian summer weather. The olive blazer and chambray shirt feel refined without appearing stiff, while the suede shoes and silk accessories add subtle personality.

Studio tips

• Prioritise breathable fabrics like linen blends and tropical wool during summer sporting events.
• Softer tailoring usually works better than rigid business suits at Roland-Garros.
• Avoid overly formal black shoes. Suede styles feel more relaxed and seasonally appropriate.
