4 Last-Minute Halloween Costume Ideas for Men Inspired By Tennis Great Roger Federer

Roger Federer may have retired from professional tennis, but his legacy is one that will never dwindle. The Swiss tennis star’s influence has cropped up once again as Halloween is just around the corner. This is because, not only does his story motivate aspiring athletes, but his dedication and perseverance are some of the qualities that parents wish to instill in their children. This Halloween, dressing up like the Tennis King can not only help win the costume contest, but they are very easy to put together at the last minute.

Here are 4 dashing Federer costumes that can be assembled with pieces already in the closet.

Federer’s iconic all-white attire

Throughout his career, Roger Federer has sported many ensembles featuring his endorsements. However, one particular style has stood the test of time. Federer’s all-white outfits at the Wimbledon Championships over the years are very easy to replicate and they scream his signature style without much effort. Even though, over the years, the Fed Express has donned many colors, this particular ensemble resonates his style like no other.

All that’s needed to put together this costume is a white polo paired with a pair of white shorts or white trousers. A white headband can add a special touch along with white Nike shoes, or any white trainers. To go the extra mile, adding a white jacket with the Swiss Maestro’s emblem can really take the outfit to a whole new level.

If you cannot find a jacket with his emblem, you can always print out the ‘RF’ signature in gold and paste it on a white blazer, a white button-up, or a white pullover.

Roger Federer: A fine example of couture

When not on the court, Federer has never shied away from displaying his impeccable fashion sense. Replicating his collection of suits, which have been on display in numerous events, can serve as a high-end Halloween costume to pay tribute to the 42-year-old legend.

This idea works especially well if you are in a time crunch and can’t prepare elaborate costumes. A perfectly tailored suit with a necktie or a bow tie and a tennis racket would be the perfect replica of the Swiss Maestro’s outfit.

Part the hair to the side or try a slicked-back look to tie your outfit together.

Commemorating this special moment is the easiest of all. All you need is a black, round neck t-shirt, a pair of black jeans or trousers, and a navy blue jacket, preferably one without a collar. Add a pair of white sneakers and a tennis racket to complete the look.
