What To Wear To The US Open 2025 Tennis Tournament In New York
The US Open isn’t just about forehands and tiebreaks, it’s about the outfits. Somewhere between the Honey Deuce line and the Arthur Ashe nosebleeds, fashion’s best characters come alive: the influencer bride plotting content in her Cult Gaia heels, the NYU freshman romanticizing her first Honey Deuce like it’s a Sofia Coppola frame, and the Paradise Valley girl whose ‘casual’ girls’ trip involves emerald earrings and a Patek. Tennis may have a scoreboard, but the real competition is happening in the stands, and trust us, everyone’s dressed to win.
Flies in on a PJ, checks into the hotel spa before texting the group chat. Has an Amex just for resort wear. She’s here with her women’s tennis club — affectionately known as The Backhand Wives Club — the gals who don’t really work, whose kids are grown, and whose husbands are conveniently always at the office. Their girls trip is timed perfectly around the US Open, because what’s better than shopping at Bergdorf’s before heading to Arthur Ashe in matching florals? Her set is Agua by Agua Bendita because vacation is a lifestyle, not a location. Wears emerald earrings poolside, orders tequila by the bottle, and somehow loses her Patek Philippe in the cabana cushions.
She founded Haute Sauce™, a ‘better-for-you condiment company’ that no one has actually bought yet, but she swears is about to blow up. Desperate for funding, she schleps samples in her Negroni book clutch and keeps mentioning how she’s ‘this close’ to dating Sean Evans. The US Open is less about tennis and more about cornering VCs in the Honey Deuce line. Her satin dress is sustainably sourced, unlike her runway-to-Series A pipeline.
She works in a male-dominated field and is somehow the only one who makes it look easy. Plugged in, hyper-connected, she knows everyone from the Arthur Ashe suites to the afterparty at Zero Bond. FanDuel is on her phone but Coco Gauff is the only bet she makes. Her rugby shirt is oversized because so is her ambition. Shorts are Recreational Habits (obviously), and she’s the one in the group chat who actually remembers the score and the managing partner’s name. Eric Adams keeps asking to be her doubles partner, but she’s already replaced him with Lucy Guo as her new pickleball partner.
She’s already been wearing white for the past year to ‘manifest a surprise engagement,’ but this season she’s fully committing to an all-white wardrobe while inhaling Wegovy and booking private sessions with Kirsty Godso. Her registry is basically Net-a-Porter, and the honeymoon will be at Hotel du Cap because Amalfi was too obvious. Bridesmaids must have at least 500K followers to make the cut. As a 2026 bride, she’s desperate to ‘do something different’ since half her friends are also getting married — which is why her afterparty look is a white denim collab sponsored by Levi’s.
She grew up in a small town but moved to New York with a suitcase full of romance novels and a dream that her life would look like a Nora Ephron movie. She toured Tisch once and immediately started calling herself a ‘downtown girl.’ Drinks Honey Deuce like it’s sparkling water, quotes Sofia Coppola films she hasn’t seen, and keeps a bow in her hair for every occasion. Believes in fairytales, meet-cutes, and bright lights big city love stories. Her phone wallpaper? Taylor Swift at the US Open in 2016, obviously.
