Pippa Middleton, just like her sister, the Princess of Wales, has always been a longtime tennis fan. The mother of three told Vanity Fair in 2013: "I first went to Wimbledon when I was eight years old and already a very keen tennis player."
Recalling the first time she went to the All England Lawn Tennis & Croquet Club, she further remarked: "During this first trip, I acted on my childish tennis dreams and bought myself a postcard of the women's championship trophy, on which I wrote, 'I will win this one day,' with my signature below."

This dress, which was designed in a shift shape, with capped sleeves and statement button detail, was quite the chic style, and the tomato red shade was bold and eye-catching. The playful, above-the-knee hemline offered a more relaxed silhouette than the modest, midi lengths the Princess of Wales typically favours for royal appearances.

Royal style rules dictate that working female royals should stay away from miniskirts and keep hemlines modest and respectable.

Pippa and Kate's early Wimbledon memories
In the same Vanity Fair interview, Pippa recounted a time that she and Kate queued for cut-price Wimbledon tickets, recalling when she queued "from five a.m on 'People's Sunday' in 2004 with my sister for three hours and getting £35 tickets on Centre Court; my first time ever," she noted.

Wimbledon whites
To attend Wimbledon in 2018, Pippa nailed the chic Wimbledon whites look with a lace dress featuring detailed capped sleeves. Although not her sexiest look to date, we think the angelic white and fashionable silhouette make it white hot.
