Exclusive interview: The life and style of Roger Federer-7
On-court style CREDIT: SHUTTERSTOCK "At Wimbledon, we tried to bring
back the history of the
game when they walked out in
jackets or cardigans. We tried
to push the envelope –
sometimes a bit too much. But
it was fine. These moments stay memorable, and I was
willing to take chances. There
was the all black at the US
Open, which was a pretty big
deal, because nobody really
wore all black. When somebody wore black shoes,
it was like, 'Wow, black shoes!' It was especially good at night. I
think that tennis has
always had a big opportunity
to mix it up. We have 12
different outfits a year and
tennis has a lot of history and
street cred. We've kind of lost that because it's got so
aggressive and everything has
to be breathable, durable, the
shoes and everything. We've
moved away from it, so I've
tried to bring a little bit of style into tennis."Source:GQ Magazine
