In this print from June 1953, we see two remarkable women showcasing their exquisite tennis outfits with sheer elegance and style. On the left, Maureen Connolly exudes confidence as she dons a stunning tennis ensemble made of Italian ribbed rayon. The outfit features delicate gold piping along the edges, adding a touch of opulence to her attire. The blouse is beautifully embroidered in silk with a charming flower motif, topped by a golden crown that symbolizes her regal presence on the court. On the right stands Julie Sampson, radiating joy and excitement in her white sharkskin tennis outfit. A true trendsetter, Julie's top half boasts an original pattern created by crossed tennis racquets and balls intricately woven into panels of lace. This unique design will undoubtedly make waves at Wimbledon this year, setting new standards for fashion-forward athletes. Both women epitomize gracefulness as they hold their rackets with poise and wear smiles that reflect their love for the sport. Their clothing choices not only showcase their individuality but also highlight the evolving world of women's fashion in the 1950s.
