Wimbledon 2024 was the talk of the tennis world. Most people were interested and invested in the finale, and most celebrities were seen at the event, fashionably so. We have a couple of things we liked that we singled out.
1. Zendaya’s fashion
Zendaya’s fashion styling is always on high. Her stylist always gets it right and perfectly. She once again stole the spotlight with her impeccable style. For this year’s Wimbledon finale, she put on a sophisticated blue and white look. According to www.bazaar.com, Zendaya wore a white suit with a blue striped shirt for the men’s final.
2. Glenn Close brought her adorable dog to the game
Actress Glenn Close brought a delightful touch to the championship final by attending with her adorable dog. Dressed in cream Ralph Lauren tailoring, Glenn’s furry friend complimented the look with a charming navy neckerchief, adding a twist to the event.
3. Czech Republic/Czechia is on the map
Every time there is a winner in any major sporting event, there is a country behind the winner that automatically gets put on the map. The Czech Republic/Czechia is a landlocked country covering about one-third of the area of the United Kingdom. Situated in central Europe, sharing frontiers with Germany in the west, Poland in the north, Slovakia in the east and Austria in the south, this great country produced the Wimbledon Women’s Singles champions of both 2023 (Markéta Vondroušova) and 2024 (Barbora Krejčíkova).
4. Princess Charlotte was spotted
We can’t believe how much Princess Charlotte has grown. The young royal, daughter of the Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, was also spotted at Wimbledon 2024 alongside her mother in a navy-blue polka dotted dress and ballet pumps. Kirsten Dunst matched the princess as she also opted for a navy polka dot dress.
5. Feathers never go out of fashion
Maria Sharapova wore an all-white look including cropped feather-trimmed trousers. She kept her look cream, minimal and clean. Fashion Designer Bennu Sehgal says it’s a vintage style of ornamentation that will never go out of style. Best believe that.
Wimbledon 2024 was a blend of sports excellence and high fashion, making it an event to remember. From celebrity styles to outstanding victories, these moments reminded us of what makes Wimbledon so special.
