Wimbledon has become more than one of the biggest events on the tennis calendar. It is also one of the few occasions that brings together royal style, British tradition and fashion. Catherine, Princess of Wales, has become closely associated with that balance through her appearances at the Championships, which have become one of the most anticipated parts of the tournament each summer.

As patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, Kate is a regular in the Royal Box, but her wardrobe choices rarely feel predictable. Her Wimbledon appearances have drawn consistent attention for the way she combines classic tailoring with colours and cuts suited to both the occasion and the season.

Her Wimbledon wardrobe is defined by consistency. Over the years, Kate has built a recognisable style formula while still finding ways to introduce something fresh each season.

One of her earliest standout appearances came in 2011, shortly after marrying Prince William. Wearing a white pleated Temperley London dress, she embraced the tournament’s traditional palette without looking overly formal. The look established a style direction she would return to repeatedly: clean lines, structured tailoring and understated accessories.

Green has become closely associated with her Wimbledon wardrobe. Whether in Emilia Wickstead, Roland Mouret or other British designers, she has frequently chosen shades that complement Wimbledon’s grass court setting.  These dresses often feature fitted waists, midi length skirts and sharp shoulders that suit the relaxed formality of the tournament.

Polka dots are another recurring favourite. Kate has worn the print in different colours and cuts over several tournaments, showing how a timeless pattern can remain current when paired with simple accessories. Her jewellery is usually limited to pearl earrings, delicate necklaces or classic watches, allowing the clothing to take centre stage.

She has also shown a willingness to introduce unexpected choices. In 2023, she surprised fashion observers with a mint Balmain blazer, moving away from her usual dress styles while remaining appropriate for the Royal Box. The tailored jacket showed a different direction in her Wimbledon wardrobe because it broke from the patterns she had established over the previous decade.

Her 2026 appearances continued that evolution. She first arrived in a relaxed blue Gabriela Hearst suit, then changed into a striking red Roland Mouret dress for the women’s final before closing the tournament in a rich green outfit for the men’s final. The three outfits demonstrated a broader range of colours while maintaining her established style.

Accessories have always played a supporting role in Kate’s Wimbledon outfits. Nude pumps, pointed slingbacks and suede courts appear regularly, alongside structured handbags in neutral shades. Her hair is typically worn in soft waves or half up styles, while her makeup remains natural and refined. One detail that returns every year is the green and purple bow, worn because of her role as patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club. It has become a regular feature of her Wimbledon appearances.

Kate’s Wimbledon wardrobe differs from many celebrity appearances because it focuses on classic tailoring instead of seasonal trends. Quality fabrics, refined cuts and carefully chosen colours have given many of her outfits lasting appeal, with several remaining favourites years after they first appeared.

That consistency has made her a regular fashion focus at Wimbledon. Her approach remains centred on clothing that suits the occasion, respects the tournament’s traditions and occasionally introduces new colours or cuts. It is a style formula that continues to attract attention each year.

Kim Kardashian is the face of SKIMS‘ latest lingerie launch. The entrepreneur shared a series of campaign images wearing a leopard-print micro bralette and matching thong, giving customers a first look at the newest addition to the brand’s Fits Everybody range. The campaign was released on 1 July and generated reactions across social media.

The collection expands SKIMS’ Fits Everybody line with a leopard-print set featuring a triangle bralette with adjustable halter straps, delicate lace trim and a small bow at the centre, paired with a matching thong cut for minimal coverage. The collection uses the brand’s signature stretch fabric while introducing a more revealing design than previous releases.

Animal print continues to feature prominently across lingerie and ready-to-wear collections, and SKIMS has introduced the new “Umber Leopard” colourway to its existing range. Rather than introducing a new fabric, the brand has refreshed the collection with a print that remains popular in both luxury and high-street fashion. The update focuses on a new pattern while retaining the existing fit.

Kardashian modelling the collection herself follows the brand’s established marketing approach. While SKIMS regularly collaborates with celebrities and athletes, its founder remains a central figure in its campaigns. Her social media posts often preview new launches before products appear on the brand’s retail channels, prompting online reactions.

The campaign also reflects SKIMS’ move towards more revealing lingerie designs. In recent weeks, the brand has released campaigns featuring celebrities including Hailey Bieber and Will Ferrell. Kardashian’s latest appearance continues that run, introducing a collection with more revealing styles than the brand’s everyday basics.

The opening day of Wimbledon 2026 brought together world-class tennis and a celebrity guest list that became almost as much of a talking point as the action on court. From the Royal Box to the grounds of the All England Club, familiar faces from sport, television and music gathered for one of the biggest social occasions of the British summer.

David Beckham was among the first high-profile arrivals, taking his seat in the Royal Box with his mother, Sandra Beckham. Wearing a charcoal suit with a light-coloured tie, the former England captain stayed true to his classic tailoring, a look that has become a familiar sight at Wimbledon. Beckham remains one of the tournament’s most recognisable guests, and his arrival was widely photographed throughout the day.

The Beckham family’s presence extended beyond the Royal Box. Romeo Beckham also attended the Championships alongside his girlfriend, Kim Turnbull, joining a celebrity crowd that included actors, presenters and musicians enjoying the opening day atmosphere.

While Beckham chose classic tailoring, Maura Higgins opted for a more playful look. The television personality arrived in a white mini dress with pointed white stilettos designed with tennis balls built into the heels. She paired the outfit with a tennis ball-inspired handbag, creating one of the day’s biggest style talking points.

The accessories became the main focus of Higgins’ outfit. The tennis-inspired heels gave the otherwise simple look a light-hearted twist, showing how one well-chosen accessory can stand out without overwhelming the rest of an outfit.

Celebrity style across the grounds largely reflected Wimbledon’s long-standing preference for smart summer dressing. White remained the dominant choice, with lightweight tailoring, lace dresses and soft neutral tones appearing throughout the guest list.

Amanda Holden arrived in a pinstriped waistcoat with matching wide-leg trousers instead of a traditional dress, while Katherine Jenkins chose a white dress with blue polka dots and a pussybow neckline. Tess Daly opted for an off-white lace dress, Ashley Roberts wore a structured white mini dress, and Katherine Ryan selected a vintage-inspired shirt dress with gold button detailing.

Elsewhere, Pixie Lott wore a pale pink skirt suit, Carol Kirkwood chose a lilac floral dress, and AJ Odudu arrived in a butter-yellow gown with draped detailing and a thigh-high split. Among the male guests, Ronan Keating chose a cream double-breasted suit, Niall Horan wore cream trousers with an open-collar white shirt, and Sir Mark Rylance rounded off his three-piece suit with a traditional boating hat.

Wimbledon continues to attract more than the world’s leading tennis players. The Championships also bring together well-known names from entertainment, fashion and sport, making celebrity arrivals an established part of the tournament’s opening days.

This year’s guest list showed that personal style can sit comfortably alongside Wimbledon’s traditional dress culture. David Beckham stayed with the classic tailoring that has become closely associated with his Wimbledon appearances, while Maura Higgins brought a playful sporting touch through accessories that quickly became one of the most talked-about looks of the day.

With nearly two weeks of tennis still to come, more celebrity appearances are expected throughout the Championships. Based on the opening day, attention is likely to remain on both the matches and the courtside fashion as the tournament continues.
