Top 18 Best Wimbledon Looks of All Time!

Wimbledon 2026 has just kicked off, and as always, all eyes are on Centre Court. But, let's be honest, the fashion is just as iconic as the tennis. From Queen Elizabeth to Princess Diana, Kate Middleton, Meghan Markle, and more. Over the years, Wimbledon has given us some of the most unforgettable royal-style moments ever seen. So, before we dive into the new season, let's rewind and revisit the most iconic royal Wimbledon looks that truly defined elegance on Centre Court. Queen Elizabeth II, 1957. For me, Queen Elizabeth II's 1957 Wimbledon look is the definition of classic royal elegance. During her debut at Wimbledon as the reigning monarch in July 1957, she wore a stunning midi-length summer dress featuring a vibrant floral print, a cinched waist, and a full-pleated skirt. She attended the Ladies' Singles Final to present the Venus Rosewater Trophy to champion Althea Gibson, and I love how she fully embraced the iconic New Look silhouette of the 1950s, choosing a charming British Garden Party aesthetic instead of the more traditional sporty Wimbledon style. I especially love the silhouette of this dress. The fitted bodice flowed into a beautifully defined waist before opening into a voluminous midi-length skirt, creating such a graceful and feminine look. The vibrant multicolored floral print gave the outfit a fresh summer feel while perfectly capturing the charm of a classic British Garden Party. With its short sleeves and elegant structured neckline, I think the dress was both sophisticated and ideal for a warm day on Centre Court. To complete the look, Queen Elizabeth II stayed true to her signature daytime royal style. She paired the dress with crisp white wrist-length gloves while greeting officials and presenting the trophies. I also love the multiple delicate strands of pearls, complemented by matching statement pearl earrings, which added even more elegance. She carried a structured white top-handle frame handbag, while her small white floral embellished cocktail hat, beautifully pinned to her styled hair, perfectly reflected the formal royal dress code of the era. Princess Diana, 1995. For me, this isn't just Princess Diana's most iconic Wimbledon look. It's one of the most famous royal fashion moments of all time. Her unforgettable appearance at Wimbledon in 1995 completely redefined courtside style, and even decades later, this look is still considered the blueprint for modern tailoring. Worn to the men's singles final between Pete Sampras and Boris Becker, her stunning butteryellow Chanel suit also helped spark the timeless butteryellow fashion trend that continues to inspire designers today. The outfit itself was effortlessly elegant. Diana wore a beautifully tailored two-piece pastel butteryellow skirt suit by Chanel that perfectly balanced sophistication with simplicity. The structured short cut blazer featured mid-length sleeves and subtle peplum detailing at the waist, while the matching high-waisted pencil skirt, falling just above the knee, created one of her most polished and flattering silhouettes. Her vintage Chanel button earrings, featuring a gold setting with a central pearl accent, paired beautifully with a classic single-strand pearl choker necklace, her signature gold luxury watch, and a pair of dark round-framed sunglasses that perfectly captured the effortless glamour of the mid-1990s. To finish the look, Diana styled her iconic voluminous layered pixie cut with the clean, piecey texture that became synonymous with her post-separation style. Her soft daytime makeup, featuring a neutral lip, light bronzer, and a clean defined eye, complemented the outfit beautifully, making this one of the most recognizable and influential Wimbledon looks ever worn. Queen Elizabeth 2010. Queen Elizabeth II's return to Wimbledon in 2010 deserves a place on this list for more than just the fashion. Her appearance on June 24, 2010 marked her historic return to the championships after 33 years, making the moment even more special. Dressed in a striking bright turquoise or aqua blue coat and dress combination with a perfectly matching hat, she once again proved why her signature rainbow wardrobe became so iconic. The vibrant shade wasn't simply a fashion choice. It was carefully selected to ensure she remained easily visible to the public, even while seated among thousands of spectators. The outfit itself was beautifully coordinated. She wore a structured turquoise coat with clean lines and a classic collar, making it the perfect choice for such a prestigious summer event. Underneath was a complimentary white dress that balanced the boldness of the coat, while the matching turquoise hat, decorated with elegant floral or ribbon embellishments, completed the instantly recognizable royal ensemble. No Queen Elizabeth look would be complete without her signature accessories. She paired the outfit with her iconic three-strand pearl necklace and a diamond brooch pinned to her left lapel. Following royal tradition, she also wore elegant white gloves and carried her signature black Launer London handbag. To comfortably walk around the grounds of the All England Club, she finished the look with her custom low-heeled black leather loafers, proving that practicality and timeless elegance could go hand in hand. Queen Camilla, 2014. One of Queen Camilla's most charming Wimbledon appearances came in 2014, when she attended the championships on June 25 and took her seat in the royal box on Centre Court. Then known as the Duchess of Cornwall, she opted for a fresh and elegant look that perfectly suited the summer setting, wearing a white and mustard yellow polka dot dress paired with a matching coordinated blazer. The playful white and mustard yellow polka dot print instantly made the outfit stand out. Interestingly, it was a vibrant follow-up to a similar blue polka dot dress she had worn at the tournament three years earlier. The classic knee-length summer dress was layered beneath a sharply tailored blazer in the exact same matching polka dot pattern, creating a polished and beautifully coordinated silhouette. She also wore a pair of classic dark sunglasses, the perfect finishing accessory for enjoying the matches from the royal box on a sunny Wimbledon afternoon. Princess of Wales and Meghan Markle, 2018. One of the most talked about Wimbledon fashion moments came in 2018, when Catherine, the Princess of Wales, and Meghan Markle made their first joint public appearance without their husbands. On July 14, 2018, the two royals attended the Ladies' Singles Final together, each bringing a completely different sense of style while perfectly embracing the elegance of Wimbledon. Catherine, then the Duchess of Cambridge, leaned into a timeless feminine aesthetic with a subtle tribute to the sport itself. She wore a bespoke knee-length cream tea dress by British designer Jenny Packham, featuring cap sleeves and beautiful gathered fan-style ruffles cascading from the left shoulder to the hip. One of my favorite details is that what appeared to be classic black polka dots from a distance was actually a clever tennis ball-inspired print, making the dress even more special. She paired it with the Dolce & Gabbana Miss Sicily top handle bag, which appeared cream in photographs but was officially crafted in the Nude suede pointed toe pumps completed the look, while her Cartier Ballon Bleu watch, Ray-Ban Chris sunglasses, and elegant Baroque pearl drop earrings by Into Design added the perfect finishing touches. Her signature voluminous Chelsea blowout and fresh glowing makeup tied the entire look together beautifully. Meghan Markle, on the other hand, took a completely different approach with a modern, preppy, California cool outfit from Ralph Lauren, subtly paying tribute to her close friend Serena Williams. She wore a crisp oversized blue and white vertically striped button-down shirt with the sleeves casually rolled up to her forearms, paired with high-waisted, fluid, wide-leg cream silk trousers from the same fashion house. Instead of wearing it, Meghan carried a classic white straw Maison Michelle Panama hat with a etiquette that discourages hats from blocking other spectators' views. She finished the outfit with an Altuzarra Gianda black leather saddlebag and black Il Esteva Leonard round sunglasses, while keeping her jewelry understated with only her engagement and wedding rings. Her now iconic, effortless, low, messy bun, created by George Northwood, with a few loose face-framing strands, along with soft natural makeup that highlighted her freckles and a subtle pink lip, completed one of her most memorable Wimbledon appearances. Princess of Wales 2019 If there's one Wimbledon year that truly showcased the Princess of Wales' incredible sense of style, it has to be 2019. Then the Duchess of Cambridge, she made three standout appearances throughout the championships, each one completely different from the last. For her first appearance on Day 2, July SIF, she embraced the tournament's iconic Wimbledon whites tradition with a custom Susanna flippy wiggle midi dress. Crafted from white Italian silk crepe, the dress featured short sleeves, a beautifully structured pin-tucked bodice, contrasting black front buttons, and a delicate black bow detail on the lapel. I really like how the skinny black Alexander McQueen leather belt defined her waist, while the woven raffia and black leather Alexander McQueen wicca mini clutch added subtle texture to the outfit. Ray-Ban Wayfarer II sunglasses, Catherine Zareta fern gold hoop earrings, and her exclusive club patron purple and green bow pin, making this one of her most polished Wimbledon looks. For the Lady Singles Final on July 13, where she attended alongside her sister Pippa Middleton and sister-in-law Meghan Markle, she swapped classic white for a bold emerald green ensemble. She wore a bespoke Dolce & Gabbana georgette crepe midi dress in a rich forest green, featuring polished gold buttons running down the front, short sleeves, and a tailored pussy bow neckline tie. This was actually a royal re-wear from her 2016 Canada tour, proving once again how effortlessly she gives timeless pieces a fresh new life. She paired it with a blush pink Dolce & Gabbana Sicily handbag, nude suede Rupert Sanderson Mallory pumps, Asprey Woodland Oakleaf yellow gold earrings, and her trusted Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses, creating one of the most elegant color combinations of the tournament. Then, for the Men's Singles Final on July 14, she ended Wimbledon on a softer, more romantic note in a powder blue Amelia Wickstead Jordan dress. The elegant crepe A-line midi design featured twisted fabric detailing across the shoulder straps, a flattering square neckline, a fitted bodice, and a flowing, softly pleated swing skirt that gave the entire outfit a graceful, almost Cinderella-inspired feel. She complemented the dress with a vintage Joseph beaded clutch covered in delicate cream and white pearls, neutral-toned Aldo Nichols pointed toe heels with a clear block heel and ankle strap, dainty in-to-design Baroque pearl drop earrings, a classic watch, and Ray-Ban Wayfarer 2 sunglasses. Across all three appearances, one thing remained beautifully consistent—her signature styling. She wore her hair in her iconic bouncy blow-dry with soft, loose curls, while her makeup stayed fresh and understated with a subtle smoky eye, a soft pink lip, and a naturally dewy summer complexion. Together, these three outfits made 2019 one of her strongest and most memorable Wimbledon fashion Attending day nine of the Wimbledon Championships alongside her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, she stepped out in a vibrant floral ensemble that perfectly captured the elegance and energy of a British summer. It's no surprise that later that month, her incredible fashion evolution earned her the number one spot on Tatler's 2024 Best Dress List. Her standout look centered around a stunning $395 white-printed lace shirt dress from the Monique Luyer Spring 2024 Ready-to-Wear Collection. The midi-length design beautifully combined silk and lace, featuring a classic button-down front, a sharp collar, elbow-length sleeves, and a delicate tie belt that defined the waist. What really makes this dress stand out is its abstract paint-style floral print, with vibrant pops of bright pink, blue, green, and yellow layered over the crisp white base. Finished with a scalloped hemline, the dress felt fresh, feminine, and perfectly suited to Wimbledon. She paired the outfit with the broche vivier buckle crochet clutch in raffia by Roger Vivier, a beautifully textured straw bag featuring the brand's signature crystal-embellished buckle clasp. Keeping the rest of her accessories understated, Beatrice opted for small gold hoop earrings and a few delicate stacked gold bracelets, allowing the colorful dress to remain the focal point. Princess of Wales 2024. The Princess of Wales made one of the most powerful Wimbledon fashion statements of 2024 when she arrived for the Gentleman's Singles Final in a stunning custom Sophia gown. Dressed in a rich regal purple version of the brand's Cecilia Middy dress, she immediately stood out in the royal box, and the color choice felt especially meaningful given her role as patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club. The custom dress featured a beautifully structured twist-detailed bodice with a ruched bust, subtle puffy short cap sleeves, and a flowing A-line skirt that created an elegant, flattering silhouette. What makes this look even more special is the symbolism behind the vivid purple shade. It was a direct nod to one of Wimbledon's official colors, purple and green, while fashion experts also connected the color to historic royal symbolism, and even described it as a representation of courage. She paired the dress with carefully chosen accessories that kept the focus on the striking purple gown. In her hand was the Millie beige leather top handle bag by L.K. Bennett, a British brand that frequently appears in her wardrobe. She also wore the Lucia nude leather slingback sandals with a block heel by Camilla Elphick, adding a soft neutral balance to the outfit, while her signature dark green and purple bow brooch, reserved for the club's royal patron, was fastened proudly to the bodice. The jewelry was modern and understated, featuring the Sabine chunky gold hoop earrings by British designer By Pariah, and two stacked gold-plated bracelets from Halcyon Days, including the Maya Torque bangle. Her hair was styled in her signature glossy voluminous curls with a soft side part, and her makeup remained fresh and elegant with a pink lip, light bronzer, and a softly defined smoky eye. Altogether, this was one of the Princess of Wales' most memorable Wimbledon appearances in recent years. Zara Tindall, 2024. Zara Tindall's day 10 appearance at Wimbledon 2024 is one of those effortless summer royal looks that just feels perfectly in sync with the atmosphere of the championships. She stepped out wearing a ME plus EM shadowberry print maxi dress that immediately stood out for its soft painterly floral design and relaxed elegance, perfectly suited to a bright day at the All England Club. The dress itself featured a white linen blend base covered in a delicate botanical print with sage green leaves and subtle splashes of pink and yellow flowers, giving it a fresh watercolor effect. The silhouette was equally flattering, with a keyhole neckline, a gently tapered waist, subtle puff sleeves, and a flowing ankle-grazing a-line skirt that moved beautifully. To add structure and polish, she layered a crisp white tailored blazer over her shoulders, finished with ornate gold buttons that elevated the entire look. Her accessories included a mint green woven leather Anya Hindmarch crossbody bag, which subtly tied in with the sage tones of her dress, and oversized vintage-style neutral sunglasses by Soak that gave the look a cool 70s-inspired edge. Her beauty look was kept fresh and radiant with a sleek bouncy platinum blonde bob, glowing skin, soft rosy blush, and a natural lip. Harriet Sperling 2025. Harriet Sperling's Wimbledon 2025 appearance was a perfect example of modern British summer elegance done in the most effortless way. Attending day 10 of the tournament alongside her partner, now husband, Peter Phillips, she wore a sky blue linen cohort set from British luxury womenswear label Wiggy Kit, specifically from the brand's Estee collection. The look instantly stood out for its soft tailoring and breezy sophistication, solidifying her growing reputation as a contemporary style icon in the The outfit featured a powder blue chambray linen Estee cropped blouse with a relaxed silhouette, keyhole neckline, and puffed three-quarter sleeves detailed with delicate white floral embroidery. She paired it with the matching high-waisted Estee midi skirt, which carried the same coordinating embroidered floral accents, creating a cohesive and effortlessly polished summer set. The entire look felt light, refined, and perfectly suited to a sunny Wimbledon afternoon. She styled the cord with carefully chosen accessories that kept the palette soft and elegant. Her handbag was the midi Mayfair leather bag in a pastel blue shade by Aspinal of London, a brand often associated with refined royal style. She completed the outfit with tan Bella suede platform sandals by Penelope Chilvers, oversized sunglasses from British eyewear label Finlay, and a relaxed beauty look featuring a natural blowout with a center part and fresh glowing summer makeup that enhanced the overall understated elegance of the ensemble. Princess of Wales and Princess Charlotte 2025. At Wimbledon 2025, the men's singles final became one of the most talked about royal appearances of the year, thanks to the Princess of Wales and Princess Charlotte arriving in perfectly coordinated summer style. Topping the list of standout looks, their navy blue and white palette felt fresh, elegant, and beautifully in sync with the Wimbledon atmosphere. The Princess of Wales wore a striking custom cobalt blue midi dress by Roxanda, instantly commanding attention in the royal box. The fit and flair silhouette featured a structured wrap bodice, short sleeves, and a bold ruffle bow detail pinned to her left shoulder, adding a sculptural and feminine touch to the look. She paired the dress with metallic gold Celia pumps by Ralph Lauren in pointed toe calfskin, a woven LK Bennett sun hat, and Havana framed sunglasses that gave the outfit a relaxed yet polished summer finish. Her accessories included layered gold pendant and chain necklaces by Daniela Draper, her signature Cartier Trinity earrings, and the Cartier Ballon Bleu watch, while her Anya Hindmarch-Neeson square woven tote added texture and structure.
