This tennis style maestro, with a playful yet sophisticated flair, didn't just design clothing; he composed a symphony of style that transformed the sport forever.
Ted Tinling, a name synonymous with tennis elegance, began his illustrious career in the 1920s and became an iconic figure in the world of fashion and sports. His designs adorned the likes of the glamorous Billie Jean King, the enchanting Maria Bueno, and the ever-stylish Virginia Wade. With bold colors, daring silhouettes, and fabrics that moved as gracefully as the tennis stars themselves, Tinling's creations transcended the boundaries of traditional sportswear. Join us on a journey through time and fashion, as we celebrate the genius of Ted Tinling, the man who turned tennis courts into catwalks and made fashion an essential part of the game. His beautiful designs, that served style both on and off the court, inspired our first cut and sew piece, the Sorrento Tennis Dress, a nod to Tinling’s classically glamorous tennis attire.
