Wimbledon began today, and as well as eating plenty of strawberries, it also means a new outfit surely! The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are huge fans of the tennis and have been spotted at Wimbledon a couple of times over the years.
Last year, Kate, a huge fan of the game, wore
what looked to be a triple-decker tennis skirt – in fact, it was a £795 Alice
Temperley dress – teamed with LK Bennett nude court shoes.Within half
an hour of her appearance, the frock, reduced to £395 in the summer
sale, had sold out on the designer's website.
In 2008, Kate also opted for white.
The year before, Kate wore a beautiful shade of red, which looks very similar to the red Hobbs dress Pippa wore to Wimbledon in 2011.
If you are thinking about heading to Wimbledon this year, or just fancy dressing up like you are going, then here are some Duchess-esq dresses (links to websites in the caption). Remember to team them with a sophisticated tailored jacket (in case it rains) and some nude court shoes or wedge sandals. Maybe we will be lucky enough to see Kate at the tennis and she can spark another shopping frenzy!
I would wear this black Hobbs dress.
It is also available in white.
I would team the dress with the
Smyhtson Emily bag (£417 reduced from £695) and a pair of LK Bennett shoes, like the
Andie Shoe in black (£110) with a pair of nude sheer tights (so the outfit doesn't look wintery).
Enjoy the tennis ... and the shopping!
