24 famous women over 50 who aced their look for Wimbledon 2026

At 56, Jennifer Lopez brought serious movie-star scale to SW19, proving that neutral doesn't have to mean boring. She looked incredibly chic in a draped, asymmetric Ralph Lauren midi dress in a rich, buttery cream. But the real headline here is the hat - a magnificent, oversized wide-brimmed straw number that serves maximum courtside drama while being brilliantly practical for the July sun. Paired with sky-high strappy heels and a structured tan bag, it's a high-glamour look that shows exactly how to command a room—or a stadium.

Nicole Kidman, 59, looked exceptionally striking in the Royal Box, putting a sharp, powerful twist on traditional summer fashion. She chose a pristine white double-breasted blazer by Ralph Lauren, worn over a baby pink silk shirt and a soft, pastel pink tie. The combination of structured tailoring and gentle pastel tones is visually stunning.

Making a second sensational appearance, Hannah Waddingham showed everyone exactly how to wear the waistcoat trend. The 51-year-old stepped out in a crisp white three-piece linen trouser suit, matching a scoop-neck waistcoat with wide-legged, single-pleat trousers. By nonchalantly draping the matching blazer over her shoulders, she gained instant polish and coverage without overheating in the July sun. This look proves that tailored suits are just as glamorous as any summer dress.

Known for her signature uniform of black and brown and deep eyeliner, Claudia Winkleman, 54, completely flipped the script for her courtside appearance. She opted for a brilliant off-white tailored trouser suit paired with a simple, high-quality white crew-neck T-shirt. The relaxed cut of the trousers gives the look an easy, modern slouch, while the structured shoulders keep it polished. Styled with oversized black sunglasses and clean white leather brogues, it is a brilliant example of how swapping out your dark neutrals for bright monochromes can instantly refresh your look for a summer day.

Global fashion icon Anna Wintour, 76, stayed completely true to her legendary style identity. She opted for a high-neck, long-sleeved midi dress covered in a vibrant cobalt blue, spearmint green, and white botanical floral print (florals for Wimbledon - groundbreaking, actually!). She elevated the look by layering a chunky, multi-colored gemstone statement necklace over the collar, topped off with her trademark dark sunglasses and perfect bob. It is an inspiring reminder that your signature style should only get bolder and more unapologetic with age.

Amanda Holden, 55, confidently rewrote the textbook on summer event dressing. She stepped out in a bold yellow and white plaid tweed co-ord set. Featuring a structured cropped jacket, a matching bandeau top, and a pair of this season's must have capri pant, this ensemble perfectly balances playful summer energy with clean structure. Amanda beautifully demonstrates how to take a fashion trend and make it look high-end.

Broadcaster Gabby Logan, 53, delivered a masterclass in breezy, heatwave-ready glamour. Navigating a scorching afternoon on Day 11, she chose a lovely blush-pink cotton midi shirt dress by Marielle Almelo. The dramatic, oversized puff sleeves add an unexpected dose of modern romantic flair. Gabby cleverly defined her silhouette with a matching fabric tie waist, completing the look with a chic colour-blocked Marni clutch and a pair of white pointed heels. It’s light, comfortable, and beautifully sophisticated.

Jodie Foster, 63, and her wife Alexandra Hedison, 57, delivered a beautiful lesson in coordinated event dressing. Jodie kept things classic and breezy in a blue-and-white striped cotton shirt dress, accessorised with a cream sweater tied casually over her shoulders and retro white-framed sunglasses. Alexandra went down a sharper route, looking incredibly chic in an all-white tailored linen suit paired with a vibrant green tie and comfortable woven loafers. Together, they perfectly capture the new rules of relaxed courtside style.

Mrs. Harris Goes To Paris star Lesley Manville proved that impeccable fit is the ultimate style weapon at any age. The 70-year-old actress chose a timeless ivory double-breasted coat dress by Ralph Lauren that fits like a glove, featuring sharp lapels and structured long sleeves. To break up the monochrome palette, Lesley beautifully grounded the look with rich tan accessories, including a structured Ralph Lauren top-handle leather bag and matching nude pointed heels.

Mel B brought her signature vibrant energy to Centre Court, choosing a sleek white midi dress featuring a colourful, artistic abstract print across the bodice. She also cleverly tied a matching silk patterned scarf around her neck - a fantastic style trick for adding interest and coverage.

Sharon Horgan, 56, made a confident style statement by swapping the traditional midi dress for tailored high-waisted white shorts. Featuring gold button detailing, the structured shorts look effortlessly sophisticated when paired with a loose, classic white button-down shirt with rolled sleeves. The breezy outfit formula proved just how chic shorts can be for summer events.

Fashion legend Twiggy brought joyful, energetic style to the final days of the tournament. She wore structured white trousers and a matching jacket, but injected a gorgeous pop of personality with a pastel pink buttoned waistcoat underneath. Topped off with a classic straw fedora and oversized sunglasses, Twiggy, 76, made the ultimate comfort move by wearing a pair of soft pink canvas Converse trainers.

The newest member of our fabulous 50+ style club, 50-year-old Isla Fisher gracefully shook up traditional spectator fashion by leaning into a major footwear trend. Arriving in a crisp white ME+EM zip-front fit-and-flare maxi dress, she looked effortlessly summery - but it was her choice of footwear that stole the show. Forgoing predictable sandals, Isla opted for buttery tan leather wooden platform clogs. They give her look a cool, slightly retro 70s twist while offering incredible comfort for walking the grounds. Coupled with oversized sunglasses, it’s a beautifully balanced look.

Annabel Croft, 59 (and looking absolutely radiant as she approaches her milestone 60th birthday later this month), brought pure, unadulterated resort chic to day one of Wimbledon. Opting for a pristine white halter-neck midi dress by Self Portrait, she radiates effortless confidence. The dress features a beautifully fitted bodice that cascades down into a dramatic, ruffled mermaid hemline, punctuated by subtle embossed metallic rose motifs. By cinching the look with a wide, statement-buckle belt and pairing it with ultra-comfortable cream leather slide sandals, Annabel masterfully bridges the gap between high-fashion glamour and relaxed, courtside comfort.

At 91, Dame Mary Berry stepped out in a lovely pastel pink Holland Cooper V-neck dress. The structured, button-down bodice flows beautifully into a pleated A-line skirt, creating a silhouette that feels both nostalgic and entirely fresh. But it’s the delicate puff sleeves that I love - so flattering. Dame Mary accessorised to perfection with a classic pearl necklace and - in true, sensible style icon fashion - a pair of woven cream ballet flats.

Amanda Holden, 55, brought effortless, modern structure to Centre Court with a striking white pinstripe waistcoat and trousers. The wide-leg silhouette creates miles of length, while the contrasting black utility straps on the waistcoat give it a fresh, contemporary edge that keeps it from looking too corporate. Styled with oversized square sunglasses and a structured white leather top-handle bag, Amanda proves that a tailored co-ord is the perfect alternative to the traditional summer dress.

At 64, beloved broadcaster Carol Kirkwood clearly brought the gorgeous climate with her, opting for a beautifully tailored sleeveless dress in a soothing lavender-blue hue. The magic here lies in the placement of the print - the soft white and charcoal floral motif creeps elegantly up from the hemline, drawing the eye down and creating a beautifully elongated frame. It’s a clever alternative to an all-over pattern, keeping the look anchored and sophisticated. Finished with a classic cream handbag and timeless nude pointed pumps, Carol looks effortless, radiant, and perfectly put-together.

The Devil Wears Prada Musical star Vanessa Williams styled a patterned jumpsuit while attending Wimbledon, hosted by HELLO! and Emirates. Featuring large-scale, abstract print, Vanessa, 63, proved any outfit is amped up with pockets.

Lorraine Kelly, 66, made a magnificent case for vibrant colour, turning heads at the Champagne Lanson suite in a striking green-and-white botanical leaf-print maxi shirt dress by Karen Millen. The shirt-dress silhouette is a midlife wardrobe weapon - the structured collar and belted waist structure the body beautifully, while the flowing skirt keeps it incredibly breezy and comfortable. Lorraine cleverly styled the piece by rolling up the sleeves for a more relaxed, alfresco vibe and pairing it with metallic wedge sandals. It’s summer personified.

Ruth Langsford, 66, completely commanded the room by leaning heavily into vibrant colour. Showing off the immense power of sharp summer tailoring, Ruth opted for an eye-catching lime green tailored co-ord suit. The nipped-in waist and single button closure on the blazer create a beautifully structured hourglass shape, while the straight-cut trousers offer a clean, lengthening line. Styled simply with a crisp white vest underneath and casual wedge shoes, Ruth perfectly demonstrates how a bright suit can look incredibly youthful.

At 70, perennial Wimbledon style icon Sue Barker delivered a masterclass in tonal layering. Radiant in a beautifully tailored butter-yellow blazer - the undisputed colour of the season - she expertly contrasted the soft tailoring with a punchy, multi-toned floral blouse underneath. By grounding the bright, joyful top half with classic, structured black trousers and a matching black leather shoulder bag, Sue struck the ultimate balance between style and comfort.

The gorgeous Tess Daly, 57, absolutely stunned by putting a highly textured, romantic spin on classic Wimbledon whites. Draped in a magnificent floral tulle dress, her look is a masterclass in details. What makes this look an absolute triumph for her second act is the detachable matching leather belt, which brilliantly cinches the waist to define her silhouette without sacrificing an ounce of comfort. Styled with neutral kitten heels and a matching white bag, it's a serve-and-volley win.

Kate Garraway, 59, beautifully demonstrated how to master British summer layering with a whimsical, romantic approach. The GMB broadcaster stepped out in a floor-skimming white maxi dress adorned with a delicate, watercoloUr wildflower print. To combat the unpredictable courtside breeze, Kate smartly threw on an open-knit pastel lilac cardigan - proving that a light, tonal layer can be incredibly stylish without hiding a gorgeous silhouette. 

Comedian Chelsea Handler, 51, proved that you can opt for casual at Wimbledon. Nailing the relaxed-chic brief, Chelsea opted for wide-leg utility trousers in a classic beige, paired effortlessly with a loose, oversized crisp white button-down.
