67% Informative
Wimbledon 's all-white dress code dates back to the Victorian Era , when it was important to be incredibly proper’ The color white was considered to be breathable and less hot than other colors.
As of the 2023 Championships , women are now permitted to wear dark-colored undershorts, an update to the dress code.
In 2022 , an exception to the dress code was granted for players who wanted to show support for Ukraine amid the ongoing Russia/ Ukraine war.
Some competitors such as Alison Riske-Amritraj , Mihaela Buzarnescu and Tommy Paul don't mind the tradition.
