Suzanne Lenglens Tennis Outfits for Selfridges
A page depicting the outfits designed and modelled by Suzanne Lenglen for Selfridges, shown exclusively in the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News. Lenglen prefers a one-piece garment (naturally the shorts are separate) and is very enthusiastic about the model of which back and front views are shown here. An important feature of the other is the manner in which the stole belt passes through the slots. Available in a variety of fabrics the outfits cost 30 shillings. The Lenglen bandeau is 4s. 6d and the daring player has dispensed with stockings, preferring instead to use Velva Beauty Film by Elizabeth Arden

EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the roaring twenties with Suzanne Lenglen's iconic tennis outfits, exclusively designed and modelled for Selfridges. The French tennis champion, known for her bold and innovative approach to the game, preferred a one-piece garment for her on-court attire, with the shorts worn separately. The outfits, as depicted in this page from the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News, feature a stylish and functional design, with a focus on comfort and freedom of movement. The key feature of Lenglen's design is the manner in which the stole belt passes through the slots, allowing for easy adjustment and a customized fit. Available in a variety of fabrics, these outfits were a hit among tennis enthusiasts and fashion-forward players, priced at an affordable 30 shillings each. Lenglen's signature accessory was her bandeau, which retailed for 4s. 6d. The daring player dispensed with stockings, instead opting for the innovative Velva Beauty Film by Elizabeth Arden to enhance her legs and add a touch of glamour to her look. This image captures the essence of Lenglen's groundbreaking style and her influence on tennis fashion. With her confident pose, racquet in hand, Lenglen embodies the spirit of the sport and the excitement of the era. These timeless outfits continue to inspire tennis players and fashion enthusiasts alike, offering a glimpse into the history of tennis and the evolution of athletic wear.
