08/06/06 - The successful launch of BB Retro Court last autumn has encouraged Boris Becker to add to the collection: the fashion-fan and tennis star is expanding his first men’s clothing line with a “black & white collection”.

Subtle colours such as “Mocca”, “Off-White” and “Dark-Ink” already set the tone of the BB Retro Court line and are now joined by the new sports and lifestyle outfits in an eye-catching puristic look of black and white. “We have decided on these colours because they are both classic and fashionable. It means the new outfits are even easier to combine and offer suitable apparel for a wide variety of occasions. And that’s just the way I wanted it: fashion you can look good in, and not just on the tennis court”, says the former professional tennis player and current shareholder of the VÖLKL Tennis GmbH.

The collection elegantly plays with elements drawn from sports and menswear. Seams in contrasting colours are to be found just as much as the classic pin-stripe. Complementing the look of the entire BB Retro Court line, the “black & white collection” is also reminiscent of baseball and cricket outfits. The broad range of sweaters, polo shirts, shorts, trousers and jackets means that the new collection offers numerous alternatives for the fashion conscious with a penchant for classic sporting lifestyle. The “black & white collection” will be available in retail outlets in autumn 2006.
