There are the ones that nod to tennis whites (see: the pleated Temperley design she chose for her first Centre Court appearance as a newlywed); the polka-dotted ones (Kate’s staple summer print); the Wimbledon-green ones (she is, after all, Patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club); and the wild cards (like the mint Balmain blazer she debuted in 2023).
For anyone tasked with covering royal fashion, the latter are most welcome—recall her skull-, lipstick-, and butterfly-printed Alexander McQueen dress from 2016’s tournament? But if you’re simply trying to figure out what to wear for an afternoon of Pimm’s and politesse, the Princess of Wales’s turns in Jenny Packham, Alessandra Rich, and Catherine Walker are a good point of reference.
The Princess’s first appearance at Wimbledon 2026, on day four, saw her don a sharply tailored, periwinkle blue Gabriela Hearst suit —a wildcard moment, following her 2025 tennis whites. Kate’s subsequent attendance at the women’s singles final of the tournament represented something of a departure for the princess, who opted against her traditional green in favor of a form-fitting red dress with a peplum detail waist by Roland Mouret. (Kate also chose a Mouret look to attend the wedding of Harriet Sperling and Peter Phillips , the son of Princess Anne, last month.) But for the men’s singles final, Catherine saw out the event in a classic sage green, custom Emilia Wickstead dress . (Flanked by Princess Charlotte in sky blue frills.)
