Why did Wimbledon ban Matteo Berrettini’s Hugo Boss outfit? The Italian star explains what went wrong
Matteo Berrettini revealed that Wimbledon officials blocked him from wearing a Hugo Boss walk-on outfit because the beige-toned jacket was not considered white enough. The Italian had already promoted the look online but could not wear it on court. The incident highlights Wimbledon’s strict all-white dress code, which has also affected players such as Jessica Bouzas, Roger Federer and Andre Agassi.
