Retro Sport Club

The nostalgic style of sports clubs returns in Spring-Summer 2026 through polos, cardigans and pleated skirts. A wardrobe that blends sporting spirit and preppy elegance, and transforms garments born for the playing field into key elements of everyday style. Among the brands that best reinterpret this aesthetic is Miu Miu, which in recent years has made college imagery one of its most recognisable codes. Short cardigans, pleated skirts and sporty polos evoke the style of American campuses with a contemporary and slightly ironic approach. The narrative of preppy style continues with Polo Ralph Lauren, which has always represented the essence of the college wardrobe. Iconic polos, rugby shirts and V-neck cardigans convey an aesthetic that recalls Ivy League colleges and American country clubs. The atmosphere shifts slightly with Casablanca, which brings a sunnier and more relaxed image to the trend. Refined polos, knit sets and sporty silhouettes evoke the informal elegance of tennis clubs and Mediterranean resorts. College imagery becomes more sartorial in the collections of Thom Browne, where blazers, shirts and pleated skirts reinterpret academic uniforms with an almost formal rigour. Finally, Gucci revives its historic link with tennis and with Seventies sports aesthetics, and brings back polos, pleated skirts and accessories inspired by the playing field, reinterpreted in a luxury key. Between university campuses and tennis courts, the season’s sportswear rediscovers the timeless charm of preppy style.
