ACE Synopsis

"From René Lacoste to Coco Gauff, ACE: The Times & Style of Tennis is a timely exploration of how the on-court fashion has permeated culture." -Vogue

The first of its kind to examine the intersection of tennis and fashion, ACE: The Times & Style of Tennis, by bestselling author and fashion authority Sunita Kumar Nair, explores the sport's most iconic style moments, its legendary players, and the designers who have defined its distinctive look.

This beautiful volume from the acclaimed author of CBK: Carolyn Bessette Kennedy: A Life in Fashion is a lavishly produced exploration of tennis as both athletic pursuit and style phenomenon.

From the crisp whites of Wimbledon to the daring fashion statements that captivate on and off the court, the history of tennis has long been intertwined with fashion.

This thoughtfully curated celebration of the game features fine photography from Ari Marcopoulos and Juergen Teller, exclusive interviews with tennis icons Coco Gauff, Jannik Sinner, Maria Sharapova, Björn Borg, and Ben Shelton, among others, and conversations with fashion leaders Anna Wintour and Yohji Yamamoto.

Insightful commentary traces the evolution of tennis style from the traditional ensembles of early champions to the boundary-breaking looks of players like Serena Williams, Roger Federer, and beyond, and reveals how tennis fashion has shaped global trends from preppy elegance to high-fashion innovation.

Perfect for gifting, displaying, and returning to again and again, this beautifully produced hardcover features a built?in ribbon marker, making it as practical as it is collectible.
