These Are the Editor-Approved Outfits to Wear Courtside to the U.S. Open

The U.S. Open has arrived for the 2025 season. It will bring some of the biggest stars in tennis, including Jannik Sinner and Aryna Sabalenka as defending champions, as well as players including Carlos Alvarez and Coco Gauff. The tennis event has become one of the hottest events of the summer season in New York, so it will also bring fans of the sport.
Each season, the arena becomes more and more stylish. Often, looks take on preppy tennis codes, integrating pieces such as cable-knit sweaters and collared tops. Other outfits, though, bring NYC’s distinct sense of low-key cool style—pieces like kitten-heel flip-flops come to mind—making the looks distinct from what spectators might wear at other big tournaments, including Wimbledon or Roland-Garros. Ahead, we’re sharing what to wear to the U.S. Open with editor-approved outfits and shopping finds fit for the occasion.
