London—On Saturday, July 12, 2025, the Princess of Wales took her seat in the Royal Box to watch the highly anticipated Wimbledon Women’s Singles Final between Dayana Asiminova and world Iga Świątek. As she entered Centre Court, she was met with a heartfelt standing ovation, a touching (and very British) recognition of her presence and grace as she took her royal seat.

Her appearance was a masterclass in Wimbledon‑appropriate yet editorial fashion:

  • She wore a custom creamy, buttery Self‑Portrait dress, tailored in bespoke style with a pleated chiffon skirt and structured bodice in a shade of soft cream. Parliamentarian yet playful, this design echoed her iconic lime green Self‑Portrait look from 2023.
  • She carried an Anya Hindmarsh Neeson small square tote bag, structured and polished, yet perfectly in tune with her dress and a little fun.
  • Her jewellery: classic Cartier Trinity earrings, a nod to her understated regal accessory style.

Match Recap: A One‑Sided Showdown, Fashion Wins

On court, the match proved surprisingly swift: Świątek dominated, claiming victory over Asiminova with a stunning 6–0, 6–0 scoreline. Despite the scoreline indicating a tennis rout, the real fashion win of the day was clearly the Princess: her attire stole the spotlight.

While Świątek’s play was flawless, there was no graceful glitter script, it was a clinical and efficient take down.

Why the Princess Was the Real Winner

  1. Colour: Soft cream is not only Wimbledon‑appropriate, it’s also a hue that photographs beautifully against the grass courts and royal box backdrop.
  2. Design: The Self‑Portrait silhouette, tailored yet flowing, demure yet striking, balanced tradition with modernity.
  3. Accessories: The Anya Hindmarch bag added a British‑cool twist; Cartier earrings provided timeless polish and subtle sparkle under the sun.
  4. Presence: That standing ovation upon arrival wasn’t just about her health or royal status, it was also a recognition of her continuing reign as the Wimbledon darling.

This ensemble fits a continuum: from her green Self‑Portrait in 2023 to her royal purple return in 2024 (where she also received a standing ovation during her health‑survivor comeback).
