In a world full of sports apparel and gears, Dimitrov makes way for different types of clothes as well. He loves loose fits and does not bother to match his clothes and personality. In an interview with the ATP, Dimitrov revealed his favorite fashion designers.

One of my favourite designers throughout the years has been Rick Owens. [He makes] very simple, very Bohemian-style, very-loose outfits. I’ve always drawn inspiration from him in a sense because in Europe, we have different weather,” said Dimitrov.

Through the years, I’ve gotten a lot of inspiration and ideas from him to layer things up. I don’t necessarily do it just like him, but I like that sort of vibe,” said Dimitrov.

Grigor Dimitrov has started liking a new fashion designer in recent days. After many years, he has changed his style to basic and casual. As a reason, he has revealed that he does not have to go out a lot which allows him to dress however he wants to.

But lately, honestly, it’s been whatever I feel like wearing. We can’t go to the restaurants that much or anything, so it’s been very basic, very simple,” said Dimitrov.

We have an amazing guy Jerry Lorenzo who has a brand Fear of God, and I think they’re getting into it amazingly well. They have a lot of Earth colors and things that you can match with bright colors.”
