Wimbledon has become a runway for celebrities as the 14-day tennis tournament showcases a variety of fashion statements on and off the court. The event, a favorite among the British Royal Family and notable figures, has already featured a range of elegant attire, from intricate lace gowns to classic pinstriped suits.
As the tournament commenced, famous attendees utilized the platform to display their fashion sense. Laura Windsor, an etiquette expert, has advised guests on appropriate attire, emphasizing modesty and understated elegance in keeping with the traditional British social season.
Windsor cautioned against wearing large-brimmed hats that could obstruct the view of other spectators, noting that such items might need to be removed. She also recommended avoiding overly revealing clothing and, for those seated in front rows, steering clear of highly reflective or sequined items that could distract players.
Among the early arrivals, Maura Higgins made a notable statement with a tennis-inspired ensemble, featuring white sling-back shoes with heels shaped like tennis balls. This choice drew parallels to Zendaya's 'method dressing' approach during the promotion of the 2024 film "Challengers."
Tess Daly was seen in a sophisticated lace gown, accompanied by her business partner Gayle Lawton. Amanda Holden also added to the event's glamour with her presence.
The tournament, which kicked off on Monday, provides an annual opportunity for celebrities to blend their public profiles with the sporting spectacle, offering a visual feast for fashion observers.
