She’s pretty in purple.
Kate Middleton made her second public appearance since announcing her cancer diagnosis at the 2024 Wimbledon men’s finals on Sunday, looking gorgeous and glowing in a vibrant violet Safiyaa dress.
And while elegant in its own right, the draped lilac design was also a symbolic choice for this particular outing.
The Princess of Wales, 42, serves as royal patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club (AELTC), and chose to honor the organization by wearing one of its official colors.
The AELTC’s hues are “Wimbledon purple” and a shade of dark green called “Wimbledon green,” making her lilac dress a perfect choice for the match.
The special bow tie pin she wore also features the club’s colors — and while her Safiyaa dress is still available to shop, those hoping to purchase her brooch might be in for a disappointment.
Only members of the AELTC can rock the ribbon, and with only 375 members and a mile-long waitlist, your chances of snagging your own green-and-purple bow are slim.
The mom of three completed her outfit with nude Camilla Elphick slingbacks ($395), By Pariah hoop earrings ($650), Victoria Beckham sunglasses ($295 $207) and a pair of Halcyon Days bangles ($215).
Notably, one of the bracelets was studded with stones in a purple-blue “forget-me-not” color — perhaps a tribute to Princess Diana’s favorite flower.
While this marks the first time the princess has worn purple to Wimbledon, we have a feeling it won’t be her last.
