Princess of Wales Presents Wimbledon Trophy as Olive Dress Dominates Coverage

Fashion writers say the Emilia Wickstead olive dress is accelerating a shift toward muted green as a new neutral.

Overview

  • On Sunday the Princess of Wales presented the men's singles trophy to Jannik Sinner after he successfully defended his Wimbledon title.
  • The Princess attended the final in the Royal Box with Prince William, Prince George and Princess Charlotte and was widely photographed during the ceremony.
  • Kate wore a custom olive Emilia Wickstead dress that fashion outlets have framed as speeding the uptake of muted green tones on runways and high street stores.
  • Photographers captured family moments in hot conditions, including Prince George using a handheld fan, and coverage noted Wimbledon guidance that asks Royal Box ladies to avoid hats though exceptions are made for sun protection.
