In today's Buzzword Mix, our buzzword is Tenniscore.

一聽到今天的buzzword, 后面的那一部分是core, 如果你對fashion比較感興趣, 你就知道 core大概率就是跟時尚潮流相關了.

In the past decade or so, we have seen so many fashion trends named something core, for example, normcore, dreamcore or even cottagecore.

這些年來有特別多以core...核命名的這些fashion trends時尚潮流. 我們也正好趁著咱們的奧運網球冠軍鄭欽文的這股熱度還沒有過去的時候, 來聊聊和網球相關的 tenniscore.

01

What is Tenniscore？

Is this just what you wear for a tennis match? Yes and no.

Remember before we were talking about quiet luxury and old money aesthetics.

還記得我們原來說過這種低調奢華或者老錢風,

this new trend tenniscore, which is sweeping TikTok and Instagram has something to do with old money aesthetics.

我們今天說的 tenniscore 其實就跟老錢風有點關系, 甚至還被翻譯成 “網球老錢風”.

Although now many more people play tennis and it has become more popular among the general public, tennis is historically an elite sport.

雖然說現在網球變得更加普及, 但是它在傳統上依然是一個精英或者說是貴族運動, 相信大家都聽過這個說法.

And a corresponding tenniscore wardrobe reflects that level of privilege.

So in short, tenniscore is a niche where leisure and luxury go hand in hand.

簡單來說所謂的tenniscore, 網球老錢風或者網球風, 它是一個結合了leisure休閑風和luxury奢華風的這么一種風格.

This perhaps explains why tenniscore isn't really focused on the athleticism, but rather the privilege that comes with the sport.

所以在我們說網球風的時候, 我們關注的其實并不是這個運動要怎么打, 而是說跟運動相關的這些階級和特權的文化符號.

While tennis has inspired the fashion world for quite some time now, the ultraluxe aesthetic has seen a renewed interest over the past few months and is one of many glam-centric styles that've cropped up.

Tenniscore可以說是近一兩年內出現的一個比較glam-centric中心思想是這種奢華風這樣的一個風潮之一.

Amid a tumultuous economy, it seems natural that people would want to project wealth in their style, fake it till you make it, so to speak.

越是在現在經濟大環境不好的情況下, 大家反而想在穿著上面能夠project wealth, so even if you don't have money fake it.

So what exactly is tenniscore?

Well, tenniscore style can be summed up in two words, sporty and chic.

它的兩個核心詞是運動風和這種帶有奢華感的時髦, but honestly it's more about the chic side.

Think about heritage brands like Lacoste and new-money brands like Sporty&Rich—their clothes mimic on-court style, and some could even handle an actual match.

最近專注tenniscore的這些品牌, 他們模仿的就是這種on-court style, 實際網球運動員的著裝風格.

But it's more about the elevated, old-money vibes. 但它核心依然是這種老錢的感覺和氛圍.

Tennis-core is about looking like you never have to lift a finger but have had private lessons on how to wield a racket since childhood.

總體來說打造的就是一個從小就是特權階層, 從孩子的時候可能就是在私家網球場上請了網球私教的那種感覺.

All to say you don't actually need to play tennis to take part in this trend.

While tennis dress evidently has its functional aspects, there's something so effortlessly classic and cool about the sports-luxe looks.

雖然說網球裙確實有功能性, 但是它同時又兼具了這種經典時尚的一種 sports-luxe looks, 這個叫做高奢運動風.

It is a little surprise that social media like TikTok and Instagram have latched on to it too.

02

Why Tenniscore is so popular?

A reason why so many average fashion conscious people, the ones that are not exactly from an elite group also started to adopt this trend.

It's because the beauty of tenniscore lies in its enduring nature and boundless versatility.

為什么有很多普通人, 就是普通的精致女孩, 可能并不是特權階級, 但是也開始跟上了 tenniscore的網球風, 主要是因為有enduring nature and boundless versatility很百搭, 再加上它又比較經典, 不是那種轉瞬即逝的風格.

A-line skirts, A字裙, polos, polo衫, neutral colors are pieces that transcend seasons and can be mixed and matched to create an abundance of clean, easy-to-wear looks.

再加上它的顏色一般比較淺或者比較中性, 這種風格就很容易搭配出來一個穿著舒適方便, 同時看起來非常清爽的一個感覺.

Chances are, if you invest in quality pieces you will still find yourself drawn to them for years to come.

03

How do you achieve tenniscore?

在今天的buzzword最后咱們就來稍稍分享幾個, 如果你想去打造你自己的tenniscore look怎么做的小貼士.

So tenniscore is a fusion of what an actual player and a spectator would wear.

這里面有一個核心是所謂的網球風, 它不是完全和網球運動員一樣的著裝, 更多的是一個網球運動員和一個spectator和一個去看網球的人觀賽者;

特別是像比如說溫網這種一向對著裝有要求的這種老牌貴族賽事, 去觀賽的這些人所穿的衣服, 這樣的一個mixture, so a mixture of an actual player and a spectator what they would wear.

So for women, this can be tennis skirts, pleated skorts. 對于女生來說可能是網球裙pleaded skorts是這種百褶的裙褲, and tennis bracelets網球手鏈.

For men, it's all about collared shirts男士一般會穿這種帶領子的襯衫, crisp tailoring利落的剪裁, knitwear針織衫, and collegiate style that looks fresh out of a boarding school catalogue.以及這種私校學院風.

And about the colors of choice.

Well, part of the history of tennis is the ability of a player to keep his tennis whites clean and stain-free, so you're going to see a lot of white, cream, and tan knits and linens in the tennis-core space.

網球風一般都是一些中性淺色甚至是純白色. 因為在傳統的這種網球貴族賽事, 比如說溫網, 他甚至要求網球選手純白的著裝, 而能讓白色完全一塵不染, 本身就是一個老錢屬性. 所以在tenniscore這個里面, 即使不是全白, 也至少是像奶油色或者淺褐色這樣的非常淺的中性色.

Tennis shoes are an obvious choice for footwear, but loafers, or boat shoes are a good choice, too.

至于是鞋子的話, 網球鞋特別是純白嶄新的網球鞋當然是最佳選擇. 但是像樂福鞋或者像船鞋也是可以接受的.

One very important tip if you really want to go for the tenniscore, this is a reminder for you.

It might look casual and sporty, but it isn't the space to include a street fashion vibe.

雖然這個網球風看上去好像很休閑, 甚至很運動, 但是這并不意味著它是一個街頭時尚, 就像我們說了為什么管它叫老錢網球風.

This aesthetic is all about sticking to tradition其實有很多條條框框, so buy your garments in a fitted size, tuck your shirt in, button your cuffs, and lean fully into that feeling of upper-class leisure.

所以雖然是休閑, 但是是所謂的上流社會的休閑, 所以所有單品都要合體, 嚴絲合縫, 基本上就是一種精致的休閑.

If that is your thing, obviously. Now let's move on to the sample sentence.
