Wilson taps into French style with Modern Icons and Roland Garros collections

With its rich history tennis loves to celebrate its past. This is no more apparent than when it comes to apparel. Whether an elegant polo or timeless tennis dress, retro is always in style.

And there are few brands with Wilson’s heritage. Its equipment typically headlines, but the company has a renewed focus on its apparel. The Wilson Sports Professionals line is designed to capture classic styles and looks and marry them with technical performance fabrics.

The “Modern Icons” collection draws inspiration from 1950s silhouettes and structured tailoring, with nods to the uniqueness of clay-court tennis. The styles include polos, crews, dresses, skorts and bomber jacket.

“Each and every collection from the Wilson Sport Professionals line is made to perform at the highest level of sport in an iconic and beautiful way,” said Joelle Michaeloff, Vice President of Design, Sportswear at Wilson. “Our latest drop, Modern Icons, pulls inspiration from Wilson’s archives and the sport’s iconic moments, on clay.”

Accompany the new clothing line, will be Wilson’s annual Roland Garros-inspired hardgoods collection. With colors and tones inspired by France and the red clay, the “City of Light” assortment of gear includes special-edition Clash 100 v2, Clash 100L v2 and Blade 98 (16x19) v8 frames, as well as bags, backpacks, strings and other accessories.

Wilson plans on releasing two additional Wilson Sport Professional collections later this summer in tandem with the season’s remaining Grand Slams. For more details and a closer look at the Modern Icons pieces and the entire Roland Garros lineup, visit wilson.com.
