Sienna Miller Schools Everyone On the Wimbledon Dress Code

Today, Sienna Miller, a woman synonymous with the breezy boho style that Brits still put on a pedestal, watched Jannik Sinner face off against Daniil Medvedev wearing a cropped polka-dot shirt and pleated skirt set with matching Prada accessories. It was pitch perfect–a classic nod to Wimbledon whites, which every attendee seems to take as gospel despite the fact the dress code is just for players and ball persons, and a more playful alternative to the suiting that has dominated the stands. Dare we say it, tennis fanatic Kate Middleton might have worn this herself, minus the slither of torso forbidden by royal protocol.

Proving that yes, boho and Wimbledon whites can make perfect bedfellows in Ralph Lauren, 2022.

Miller’s ladylike version of preppy West London looks could have been plucked from any number of past tennis tournaments. As a regular guest of Ralph Lauren, her Wimbledon wardrobe centres around smart neutral linens, waspish takes on tailoring, sleek jumpsuits and dresses that hint at summers in the Hamptons as well as Cap d’Antibes. Her failsafe additions? A red lip and a plastic glass of rosé that hint she’s not just at the racket championships for the photo opps.

Just remember your umbrella.
