Katherine, the Princess of Wales, delighted fans as she arrived at Wimbledon yesterday afternoon, marking her second appearance since revealing her cancer diagnosis in March. For many, Wimbledon is as much about the sport as it is about fashion, and Royal watchers eagerly anticipate Catherine's outfits.
A known tennis enthusiast, Catherine did not disappoint this year at the event. The 42-year-old strolled over the bridge alongside her 9-year-old daughter, Princess Charlotte, wearing the Cecilia Lilac Mini Dress from Sophia. Her sister, Pippa Middleton, donned pink florals. Catherine's choice was nothing short of spectacular, featuring an A-line skirt that falls to a midi length. The dress, priced at £1,295 from the British brand Safia, boasts an interesting twist detailing on the bodice that draped beautifully, with structured sleeves lending it a polished appearance. The neckline had been altered to cover more of the Royal's décolletage, making it a one-of-a-kind design. She accessorized with a nude box bag, gold jewelry, and gold hoop earrings from B Pariah, and styled her hair in a relaxed side parting.
Moreover, a black pin representing the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club adorned the left side of her chest. However, what truly set this dress apart was its color. Catherine cleverly chose purple, closely associated with Wimbledon, echoing the tournament's iconic purple and green logo that has endured for over a century. In this way, the Princess of Wales honored the tradition of the prestigious tournament while also asserting her regal presence. Her ability to blend elegance with symbolism demonstrates her acute awareness of her role and the platform she holds.
As Wimbledon continues, fans and enthusiasts alike will eagerly watch for more of Catherine's stunning appearances, each potentially carrying its own message. Her recent outfits have shown that she is not just a fashion icon but also a thoughtful and deliberate figure in the public eye. Catherine's presence at such high-profile events, especially following her health challenges, continues to inspire and captivate audiences around the world.
The crowd erupted in cheers as Katherine arrived at Wimbledon Centre Court on Sunday, July 14th, for the men's final between Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz. But she wasn't the only Royal in attendance at this major sporting event. On Thursday, July 4th, Katherine's mom, Carol, looked lovely in a Safine Arena dress costing £290, topped with a cream M&M cotton hair and bone-fitted short blazer priced at £295. Lady Amelia Windsor also turned heads on July 5th in a Suzan trench coat and a Spall of London handbag. Amelia accessorized her Wimbledon look with a necklace from Mati Jewelry, the newly launched Astra beaded necklace priced at £350. The versatile accessory complements any outfit.
Plenty of celebrities were also spotted courtside in incredibly stylish outfits. Frankie Bridge had everyone talking about her peculiar white slingback stiletto shoes adorned with tennis balls skewered through the heels, paired with a keyhole halterneck gown from the small brand An & Louise Boutique. Meanwhile, Molly May had fans begging to know where to get her sleek maxi shirt dress from the London-based luxury brand Odd Muse. Molly looked flawless in the fitted dress, accessorized with a Chanel bag and slingback shoes. She styled her hair in a messy updo complete with a full fringe and finished off with brown sunglasses and gold accessories.
This Monday morning, favorite Lisa Snowden looked incredible as she attended Wimbledon on Friday, July 12th, wearing a green three-piece pinstriped suit from Me & M, a brand loved by Catherine. The presenter's exact suit, comprising a blazer, trousers, and waistcoat, is either completely sold out or in incredibly limited stock. The blazer, currently only available in sizes six or twelve, was originally £350 but has been reduced to £105. This appearance at Wimbledon marks Catherine's first public outing since last month's Trooping the Color. There, she delighted massive crowds by waving alongside her three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, before joining her husband, Prince William, on the Buckingham Palace balcony for a lively chat.
