When it comes to the best-dressed players at the French Open, the competition among the companies outfitting WTA and ATP Tour stars is as fierce as the battles on the court. Although Nike, Adidas, Lacoste, or Asics outfit most players competing at Roland-Garros, more designer labels and niche brands are entering the tennis attire market, bringing new energy to fashion tradition at the French Open. Designer labels like Hugo Boss (Taylor Fritz) and Emporio Armani EA7 (Veronika Kudermetova) have extensive tennis collections. Coco Gauff is the ambassador of a Miu Miu collaboration with New Balance. Meanwhile, the rise of athleisure in the fashion industry has expanded into tennis. Labels like Lululemon and Free People's FP Movement offer tennis outfits that work on the courts and yoga mats. Brands less notable in the United States, like About Sports, Australian Brand, and Bidi Badu, have several tennis players as ambassadors. So, like in the French Open draw, the apparel competition features dominant players, up-and-comers, and a few wildcards competing on the clay runway at Roland-Garros. The following are the best-dressed players at the French Open. PARIS, FRANCE - MAY 26: Naomi Osaka of Japan looks on after playing a backhand against Paula Badosa ...
