What did Kate Middleton wear to the Wimbledon 2026 women's final?
Kate Middleton turned heads as the lady in red at her latest Wimbledon appearance, according to Page Six. The Princess of Wales sported a red peplum dress on Saturday as she watched the women's singles final match between Karolina Muchova and Linda Noskova from the Royal Box.
She accessorized the look with a pair of gemstone drop earrings and a matching necklace. Middleton styled her brunette locks in a half-up, half-down hairdo, keeping the focus on the bold scarlet silhouette.
How did her Saturday look compare to her earlier Wimbledon outfit?
Middleton, who is the patron of the All England Club, last made an appearance at Wimbledon on July 2 — but her previous look was certainly a cooler tone from her fiery red statement on Saturday.
The princess settled on a bright blue two-piece suit: a Gabriela Hearst blazer ($2,190) and matching pants ($1,090). She paired the suit with a white Ralph Lauren T-shirt underneath and added sparkle with Carousel lapis and moonstone drop earrings ($232). She completed the look with her sapphire and diamond engagement ring and eternity band.
What did Kate Middleton do during her July 2 Wimbledon visit?
During her July 2 appearance, Middleton met with tennis fans who had lined up in Wimbledon's famous Queue. She later sat to watch a second-round match featuring British player Arthur Fery on one of the outer courts at the grass-court Grand Slam.
Kensington Palace said in a statement that on arrival, "Her Royal Highness visited The Queue, spending time meeting attendees who have queued since early this morning, alongside AELTC's honorary stewards, who volunteer each year to manage The Queue and welcome guests as they arrive at the Championships."
Why is Kate Middleton's Wimbledon presence significant?
Middleton has attended Wimbledon almost every year since 2011. She also took over the late Queen Elizabeth's role as patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in 2016, making her appearances at the Championships a longstanding royal tradition.
Last year, she was poised at Centre Court on consecutive days to present the winners' trophies to singles champions Iga Swiatek and Jannik Sinner. The princess did not attend Wimbledon for the women's final in 2024 as she was still recovering from cancer, but she turned up on hand for Carlos Alcaraz's win over Novak Djokovic.
