What The Cool Girls Are Wearing To Wimbledon 2025: The Dress Code Explained And 10 Outfit Ideas
With the Wimbledon Tennis Championships beginning on Monday 30 June, anticipation is mounting as Carlos Alcaraz eyes up a third consecutive victory, and young British hopefuls Jack Draper and Emma Raducanu return to compete on home turf. But beyond the drama on the court, Wimbledon has established itself alongside Ascot as one of sport's most stylish events, drawing (almost) as much attention for its outfits as the match results. The tradition of Wimbledon Whites sees many guests opt for crisp linen suits and tennis-inspired pleated skirts and V-necks, with the event's signature green and purple shades also popular. This year, attendees may also nod to 20 years of Ralph Lauren's partnership with the Championship and choose preppy pieces from its mainline and Polo collection. If you're in need of some outfit inspiration, look to fashion's best dressed guests. A Wimbledon regular, resident Cool Girl Alexa Chung never gets it wrong, whether choosing mannish tailoring in a white shorts suit or a khaki cotton blouse and mid-blue jeans, or a beige cable knit cardigan and cream A-line skirt. Pinstripes are a mainstay, with Poppy Delevingne wearing a cream pinstripe blazer, wide-leg trousers and shirt as a guest of Ralph Lauren last summer, while Sienna Miller chose a sky blue belted tailored linen suit also by the brand in 2023. Model Mimi Labouchere teamed a blue and white pinstripe shirt dress with a cream knit and top-handle handbag to attend the event last year. Ever ahead of the curve, Jourdann Dunn looked radiant in a butter yellow cable knit jumper and satin skirt to attend Wimbledon in 2023, with Lila Moss equally resplendent in a floor-length powder blue slip dress. Making an unexpected cameo last summer, Margot Robbie stunned in an asymmetric Alaïa white and black polka dot stretch midi dress complete with matching Le Teckel shoulder bag and black leather peep toe heels. The ever chic Keira Knightley chose monochrome Chanel in a white cotton one-shouldered layered dress with bow detail, worn with a boater hat, slingbacks and quilted handbag, all from the brand. Lean into boyish style like models Constance Jablonski and Edie Campbell, who respectively chose an oversized double breasted jacket, white denim and loafers and a taupe trouser suit worn over a white tee when attending as guests last year. Green remains a favourite shade, with Amelia Windsor pairing a shirt dress with a khaki trench coat and Aspinal Mayfair bag while Ikram Abdi Omar referenced the traditions of Wimbledon in green and white striped shirt and trousers with a navy blazer and white court shoes. If you're feeling overwhelmed, follow the example of Shalom Brune-Franklin and Ella Richards and choose perennially stylish navy worn top to toe. The actor and model each chose long line cotton dresses with coordinating cable knit jumpers to attend Wimbledon last year. The shade is easily accessorised with black, cream, metallic or tan and monochromatic pieces can be effortlessly reworked for other summer occasions or a workwear wardrobe. With so many avenues to pursue, are there any rules to consider when attending Wimbledon? While players must wear all-white, there is no official dress code for spectators and guests, but some items are not allowed: torn jeans, running vests, sport shorts and dirty trainers. Bags must not exceed 40cm x 30cm x 30cm in size and are limited to one per person. Guests may not wear clothing bearing political statements, offensive language or large designer logos. Oversized hats are not allowed to prevent obscuring other guests' views. In general, the dress code is smart daywear, particularly if you'll be watching from Centre Court or Court Number One. If you're watching from the Royal Box, men should wear a jacket and tie, while women are asked to dress in below-the-knee dresses, ankle-length jumpsuits or trouser suits. Yes, denim is allowed, though without any rips or tears. In order to meet the smart daywear recommendation, opt for a darker wash and a more fitted silhouette. Trainers, flats and heels are all permitted, though trainers and sneakers must be clean and presentable. Heels of any height may be worn, though if you're queuing for a ticket, observing from Murray Mound or planning to explore the grounds, opt for a flat, wedge, small kitten heel or block heel for comfort. Gain the advantage as Wimbledon's best dressed and see our Cool Girl guide to outfits below. Wimbledon begins on Monday 30 June with the Ladies' Singles Final on Saturday 12 July and the Men's Singles Final on Sunday 13 July. While the Wimbledon Public Ballot is now closed, anyone can queue each day for a Show Court or Grounds ticket sold on a best available, one per person, non-transferable basis.

Call It CEO Pink: This Muted, Dusty Shade Means Power in the Office
When Palm Beach native McKenna Phillips moved to Manhattan in 2019, she seemed to develop 'an allergic reaction' to wearing color, she said. Phillips, a 29-year-old hospitality manager, even earned Instagram clout for documenting her tough, all-black outfits. But lately, Phillips says she's found similar strength in a particular shade of pink. Meet the new power neutral—a muted, slightly dusty pale pink. It's as if the quiet-luxury beiges of recent seasons have been washed in rosé. Gone are any associations with Barbie, Pepto-Bismol and frilly baby showers. 'This pink emphasizes the power of sharp tailoring, without sacrificing any minimalism,' said Phillips, who credits the brands Khaite and Alaïa for turning her on to the shade.

Savannah James. While fans focus on LeBron James and his son Bronny James making history on the court, Savannah has been making quiet statements through fashion. She's not loud. She doesn't post much. But every time she sits courtside, people notice. And there's a reason why. Savannah James went polished and edgy in Alaïa and Bottega Savannah James headed to a #basketballgame wearing a full Alaia look $2,250 top & $2,950 denim jeans At the Los Angeles Lakers game , Savannah James served a sleek, fashion-forward look in a cropped black Alaïa polo and snap-detail Alaïa denim jeans. The outfit felt tailored but cool. She finished it with Bottega Veneta mules and a bold green Louis Vuitton Speedy bag. A fan post called her 'the queen of quiet style.' The vibe was confident and sharp-high fashion without the noise. Savannah James rocked a fuzzy bucket hat during the playoffs On April 16, in Game 1 of the playoffs. Savannah kept it casual. She wore black leggings and a loose sweatshirt. Her bag? Another Hermès. But the real attention went to her furry brown hat. It was from Tyler Lambert, about $160. It looked warm and fun. Fans said she wore it like a pro. Nothing loud, but full of charm. Savannah James showed up in an army-green jumpsuit In one of her most recent appearances, Savannah wore a chic army-green jumpsuit by Dries Van Noten. It was elegant yet laid-back. She wore it courtside with understated heels and minimal jewelry. A fan photo on X went viral. The caption read, 'She doesn't miss.' People said she looked calm and commanding.

Gigi Hadid's $950 Date Night Flats Look Just Like This Under-$50 Style on Amazon
Gigi Hadid could step out in a garbage bag and I'd be sprinting to CVS for Heavy Duty Glad like it's a sample sale steal. It's the supermodel effect. Just last month, the Guest in Residence creative director casually revived flip-flops by pairing signature Havaianas with an embellished Marc Jacobs mini dress (sold). And now? She's doubling down on divisive footwear with another controversial pick—which, of course, I feel compelled to immediately cop: mesh ballet flats. Apparently, toes are getting a lot of screen time this summer. Gigi was photographed in the style alongside boyfriend Bradley Cooper while arriving at COTE Korean Steakhouse in New York City for an A-list double date with Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon. She wore the Alaïa fishnet flats with crinkled silk track pants, a plain white tee, and Levi's denim jacket. And while Gigi's version is sold-out (and, ahem, $950), I found a nearly identical style (down to the details!) that could pass as the same pair. Only difference? These are just $50 on Amazon. Just like the designer iteration, the Amazon flats have a white mesh and matching Mary Jane strap with silver buckle hardware. The material itself is a stretchy vegan leather—including on both the insole and lining—and there's a slip-resistant outsole, which offers 10/10 grip and traction. Not to mention, they're soooo comfy, according to shoppers. "Just got back from a Europe trip and used this to walk around for weeks," one customer raves. "No pain, no blisters and looks cuter than just sneakers for dinner." Others agree that they've "walked 10k+ steps multiple times with no issues" and found the fit "lightweight" and "easy to put on and take off." A total win. "They are a great dupe of a very high end shoe," another reviewer adds. Wanna recreate Gigi's entire look? I have the formula. Snag the flats and style 'em with these Abercrombie & Fitch satin trousers, a cutie and casual white tee, and this Levi's jacket. Bradley Cooper-esque arm candy optional but encouraged. Megan Schaltegger is an NYC-based writer. She loves strong coffee, eating her way through the Manhattan food scene, and her dog, Murray. She promises not to talk about herself in third person IRL.

Summer's Main Character? According to the Runways, It's All About the Mature Mini Dress
The itchy bug bites on my arm and the freckles appearing on my nose indicate that summer is back in full swing. In the city, that means we're wearing as little as possible—but just how little is little? Enter the mini dress: the unlikely summer hero we'll be reaching for all season. On the spring 2025 runways, the staple returned with a new attitude—sexy (but not too sexy) and super chic. Vogue's Favorite Mini Dresses: With the right shape and styling, the mini dress takes on countless personalities. At Chloé, bohemian minis, paired with wrap sandals and jewelry, felt easy and free; at Alaïa, a head-to-toe white look put the 'mini' in minimalist. It's a versatile option for whatever summer has in store—vacations, parties, even the office (with the right shoes and accessories, of course). Shop our edit of the best mini dresses and six ways to wear them, right here. Ultra-Minimalist As evidenced by the Alaïa runway, head-to-toe white is the simplest way to make a bold statement. Shield sunglasses and a sleek bag add extra impact. Destination Calling!

Just add two more seasonal essentials—jelly shoes and a mesh tote.

Pair it with sneakers and ankle socks for a cute errands look.
