Like a downplay of the colorful infusion of the FIFA World Cup 2014 which takes place in beautiful Brazil, the classic timeless quality of the world’s most prestigious and longstanding tennis championships, Wimbledon is ongoing in England as we write these lines.

Since 1877, the London grass has seen all and every tennis stars the world had offered and one of the main particularities of this tournament is the all-white clothing for the athletes playing at Wimbledon. The ball boys and girls and the officials are currently wearing cream and blue uniforms from Ralph Lauren, a contract with the designer’s Polo Ralph Laurent label that will end in 2015. Honoring that Wimbledon tradition, here are 14 all-white dresses for your summer consideration (if you’re having doubts, just look at how many celebrities and fashion people chose to wear white in the last couple of days!)
