Kate Middleton's powerful red Wimbledon dress combined with her iconic bouncy blow-dry was one of her boldest looks at the world-famous tennis tournament. 


From Kate Middleton's white dress with pleated tiers and shoulder-baring straps for Wimbleton 2011 to her Princess Diana-inspired outfit featuring a gorgeous mint green Balmain blazer at Wimbledon 2023, the Princess of Wales has stepped out in so many incredible looks at the Tennis Championships over the years. 

We've seen Princess Catherine opt for everything from polka dots and florals to fresh whites and bold color blocking outfits in the royal box - and usually has her essential Wimbledon Ray-Bans handy for sunny days on the court. 

Flashback to Wimbledon 2015 when Kate went for a vibrant red look, teaming a fire engine red frock with her signature bouncy blow-dry and a pop of animal print with her clutch bag.

As the Prince and Princess of Wales arrived at Centre Court to watch Andy Murray play Vasek Pospisil, Kate was a vision in red in the L.K. Bennett Cayla dress, which features simple elbow-length sleeves, a midi-length pleated skirt with a flowing hemline and a modest round neckline. 

The timeless scarlet number was described by L.K. Bennett as a 'go-to dress for that special occasion', making it the perfect choice for Kate's Wimbledon appearance.

As for accessories, Princess Catherine chose her affordable Mirabelle Lolita Loop Earrings and added a flash of leopard print with her Diane Von Furstenburg Lytton clutch.

Kate kept a casual flare within the look by wearing her classic Ray-Ban Wayferer sunglasses as she watched the match.

The Ray-Ban Wayferers are one of the brand's most iconic styles, with the classic shades having become a timeless and instantly recognizable fashion staple over the years - so it's not surprising they're Kate Middleton-approved. 

The Princess of Wales has taken her favorite Ray-Bans to Wimbledon on a number of occasions, although we've seen her opt for the likes of the Givenchy Obsidians and the Finlay and Co Henriettas as her shades of choice during other Wimbledon appearances.
