The best outfits at the 2025 Roland-Garros

Though the media declared the fashion world gripped by Formula 1 fever, attention has now shifted to Paris, where Roland-Garros is unfolding. As the French Open plays out, the main focus may be on the clay courts, but increasingly, people are paying attention to what goes on in the stands. Roland-Garros is making its mark as a destination for quietly stylish insiders, away from the flashier crowds. It holds a unique position in the sport-style nexus and is becoming one of the most refined fashion stages in sports, attracting Ralph Lauren sweaters tied around the shoulders, Lacoste blouses, and old-money aesthetics. On the court, players are elevating tennis wear beyond performance, and Naomi Osaka is no newcomer to a fashion grand slam. Known for her style statements nearly as much as her serve, Osaka once again delivered at this year’s Roland-Garros. The tennis superstar and longtime fashion force teased her sakura-inspired Nike look on Instagram before debuting it in a first-round match against Paula Badosa. Trimmed in cherry red and coordinated down to her nails and satin varsity warm-up jacket, the outfit was part of a broader “flower story” she’s carrying through the 2025 season.

And she wasn’t the only one turning heads. Coco Gauff stepped onto the court in a custom New Balance and Vanson Leathers black biker jacket, while Reilly Opelka wore pink Fila head to toe — down to the pink tote bag. Athlete-brand partnerships are going strong this season and have become a key part of the visual identity at major tournaments. Meanwhile, in the stands, Roland-Garros has long favored a different style language that is less overt, more codified. Basket bags, pressed linen, soft tailoring, and silk scarves are part of a visual code for attendees. Roland-Garros is a classy event, and in the stands, it has a dress code of its own. White and pastel colors have long been staples at the French Open, and this year was no exception — though some goers leaned into darker colors. Celebrities have kept to this more muted color palette, as stars like Paul Wesley, KJ Apa, Bob Sinclar, and Eiza González were all spotted wearing black and white, navy, and other dark tones, often paired with tailored trousers and clean cuts from Lacoste and other French heritage brands.

That aesthetic is backed by La Griffe Roland-Garros, the tournament’s in-house fashion label. Its 2025 collection is divided into three lines: the Fan Collection, bold and graphic; the Sporty Chic Collection, fusing comfort and elegance; and the Heritage Collection, which draws on classic French tailoring. Lacoste, the tournament’s official outfitter, continues to play a central role — outfitting staff, umpires, and ball kids in clay-hued uniforms. What makes Roland-Garros visually distinct is its cohesion — at this event, style is about intent. It’s a less flashy formula, with fewer loud logos and viral-bait outfits, and it honors the elegance of the sport. As tennis wear becomes more integrated into mainstream fashion with brands like Miu Miu collaborating with New Balance and Lululemon designing kits for players like Frances Tiafoe, Roland-Garros remains a bellwether, and definitely an event worth watching not only for the sport but also for the fashion, on and off the court.
