Pippa Middleton's exquisite style often mirrors her sister, the Princess of Wales. Both women love classic items and adore a midi dress or two, particularly in the summer months. Such a chic pair!

It's hard to pick a favourite, but if we had to, Pippa's butter yellow Ganni dress she sported at Wimbledon 2019 is up there.

Kate's sister always frequents the famous tennis tournament each year, and in 2019, she flew the flag for stylish attire. The wife of James Matthews' subtle yellow midi wrap dress looked incredible then, and the classic style is still perfect to wear now, in 2025.

As the mother-of-three took her seat on Centre Court, in the Royal Box, she oozed summer vibes in the yellow and floral frock, which featured a daringly high side split, V-neckline, narrow waist belt, and cropped sleeves.
