Wimbledon is the oldest tennis tournament in the world and attracts royalty and A-listers alike.

Often people wear crisp white outfits, or pay homage to the championship's signature green and purple colour.

Typically there isn't a strict dress code, but smart casual is recommended, particularly for those with tickets for Centre Court or Court No 1.

There's hope that style icon Princess will be attending this year's event, alongside other fashionable royal favourites such as Zara Tindall and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh.
Ben Roberts, Managing Director of British jewellery brand Clogau, shared: 'You don't get into the royal box at Wimbledon unless you're dressed to impress. However, the dress code is still far more relaxed than you'd find at an official royal event.
'This means members of the Royal Family can embrace a more dressed-down but still luxe look, with Kate, Zara and Sophie all adept at blending traditional royal fashion with more modern trends, mixing high street names we all know and love with unique jewellery to truly elevate their look.

'Kate has mastered every colour, style, and print, but green has emerged as her signature colour for the tournament.
"Kate could switch things up this year; polka dots have made a comeback, a pattern she has always loved. It wouldn't be surprising to see her incorporate this into her look."
'Kate is often seen wearing pearl earrings for engagements as they compliment her stand-out, impressionable style; a classic touch like her beloved Annoushka pearl earrings make for the perfect accessory.'
While we may not have Princess Kate's wardrobe budget, the Primark dress could do the trick.
What it's like to be a Wimbledon ball kid
By Alison Maloney
WHILE the likes of Carlos Alcaraz, Coco Gauff and Andy Murray keep us entertained during this summer's Championships, spare a thought for those unsung heroes that keep the tournament going.
Personal trainer Alex Crockford, now 33, served as a ball boy at Wimbledon in 2005 and 2006, and has lifted the lid to SunSport on what it's really like.
'Standing still for hours is one of the toughest parts of being a ball boy,' he says.
'It's quite strict and you don't want to let your team down or feel like you're doing a bad job.
'I remember one really hot day, I clearly hadn't fuelled or hydrated myself appropriately.
"I did have a very faint moment, and started seeing blurry stars.
'There are six BBGs on the court and a captain, which was me, so I was standing to the left of the umpire chair and I was away from my water.
'I had to go outside of my position, get some water and re-balance myself before I could continue."
