The summer sporting mainstay Wimbledon is underway in London, and Kate Middleton decided to show up to watch a tennis match or two. She looked as glamorous as usual, dressed in a chic lightweight, perfectly tailored, white summer dress.

The Duchess is a patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, the body that organizes Wimbledon, which is a role she took over from the Queen in 2016. Kate played tennis growing up and is an avid fan because as she told Vanity Fair, it’s a “quintessential part of the English summer” and “inspires youngsters.” She attends Wimbledon every year but usually later in the tournament.

For this summer’s appearance, Kate watched a match between Harriet Dart and Christina McHale dressed in a radiant white sundress by Suzannah, according to Vogue. The double-breasted dress looked extra chic with a shiny black bow belt accent and a second bow on her lapel striped in royal purple and black. 

Kate also made a visit to the Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival organized by the Royal Horticultural Society the day prior, to host a picnic for visiting schoolchildren. As part of another one of Kate’s patronages, the “Back to Nature” garden was designed by the Duchess herself.
