As a huge tennis fan, without question, Catherine, Princess of Wales eagerly awaits Wimbledon every year and I am sure 2023 is no exception. Only recently, the Princess, who is a patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, joined Roger Federer for a YouTube video to highlight the work of Wimbledon's boys and girls. 

Before I move on to the outfits the Princess of Wales has worn to Wimbledon over the years, I am sure you are curious as to her specific tennis outfit. Of course you are! She chose Wimbledon’s Core Performance Sleeveless Polo that is £52, which she paired with a skort costing £50. The specific skort was from Stella McCartney’s previous collaboration with Adidas.

Now back to her other Wimbledon outfits over the years…

Wimbledon 2022

The Princess of Wales attended three days of the tennis tournament last year and wore stunning outfits for all her appearances. When she attended the Men’s Singles Quarterfinals, she wore a spotted dress by Alessandra Rich, which she paired with a Mulberry bag and shoes (also by Alessandra Rich).

My favourite outfit out of the three has to be the bright yellow dress by Roksanda, she teamed the dress with Gianvito Rossi pumps. The Princess of Wales wore the Roksanda dress to the Women’s Singles Final.

For the Men’s Single Final, Catherine, Princess of Wales, wore a navy blue peplum polka dot dress by Alessandra Rich.

Wimbledon 2021

Like Wimbledon 2022, the Princess of Wales also made three appearances at the championships in 2021. My two favourite looks out of the three was an Emilia Wickstead green dress and a ‘pretty in pink’ Beulah London crepe midi dress that she chose for the men’s singles final.

Wimbledon 2019

Wimbledon 2020 was cancelled because of the coronavirus epidemic. When the Princess of Wales attended the ladies final with her sister Pippa Matthews and Meghan Markle, she chose a green Alexander McQueen dress that she had first worn on a visit to Canada in 2016. She also opted for a pastel blue Emilia Wickstead dress for the men’s finals.
