Sartorial elegance at Wimbledon

Roger Federer, you bastard

I heard about this the other day : "Federer is wearing a white jacket on to the court, with his own logo on the front" - sounds rubbish, right?

Oddly, I think it really works. Although it does look like he's trying to compete with the Ralph Lauren designed Wimbledon uniform, which is rather natty too.

Not bad.

On the ladies front, we have Bethanie Mattek, who got slaughtered today by Venus Williams, and her rather fabulous knee-high socks. Officer, put the cuffs on now - I'm having bad thoughts.

Oh dear. Ms Bethanie Mattek, tennis player and knee-high sock wearer

I always knew you were a bit of an closet toff, but that blazer? It’s all gone too far. Whats next on the posh sports/odd clothes agenda?

Fox hunting in a dinner suit? Rowing in a cravatte? Rugby in a Panama Hat? Debutante buggery in plus fours?

Also, I blame Craig David for the whole self-referential logo business.

Those long socks are very sexy - indeed, she has much sex appeal and should pursue modeling!
