Last year, during an interview with GQ, Jannik Sinner revealed that his knowledge of fashion was limited until his collaboration with Gucci. He credited his newfound fashion sense to the creative director of the Italian fashion house, Sabato De Sarno
“I didn't know fashion at all. He explains the story and the reason behind certain clothes . I like this family feeling, no? Sometimes we text each other, it's nice. I feel like, whenever he [Sabato de Sarno] works, he's very professional, but then whenever he finishes the work, he is like us, like just normal people,” Jannik Sinner said [via GQ].
On the other hand, Roger Federer talked about his styling sense and said that he believes that style is found in the perfect balance of color and texture, as well as accessorizing appropriately for each occasion.
“I believe style is found in the perfect balance of color and texture. It’s important to accessorize in moments of celebration and for me, the finishing touch and detail is always my timepiece,” Federer said [via GQ].
On the tennis front, Federer announced his retirement from the sport in 2022 following his participation in the Laver Cup. Meanwhile, Sinner is currently serving a three-month suspension for doping and is expected to make his comeback at the 2025 Italian Open.
