Wimbledon's Centre Court has received a stylish makeover, thanks to Ralph Lauren. The American designer is the tournament's first official outfitter, and has spent the past year reworking the traditional green and purple uniforms for the judge, ball person and umpire. This year, chair and line umpires will sport a classic, preppy navy blazer piped in cream, blue and white striped cotton shirts and cream trousers and skirts. Ball persons will wear a navy uniform that consists of a Ralph Lauren classic polo, cotton twill shorts and skirts and navy warm up jackets and pants made of cotton and fleece. If you like the look of it, The Polo Ralph Lauren Wimbledon Collection will be sold at selected retail stores, Ralph Lauren stores and online at www.polo.com.
