If you've got your eyes on the racetrack during the Monaco Grand Prix, don't forget to look at the spectators on the sidelines. I'm talking about the WAGs – the wives and girlfriends of Formula 1's star drivers. This year, they served up some flawless fashion moments that made them the unofficial style icons of the event.
In the competitive world of Formula 1, these ladies don't mess around when it comes to their paddock ensembles. From halter dresses to fishnet heels, here are the top trends that made a splash at the Monaco Grand Prix.
Halter Dresses
Halter dresses have been ruling the runways this season, and the F1 paddock was no exception. One standout was Alexandra Saint Mleux, who slayed the race day with a drop-waist dress by Jacquemus. She wore it alongside oversize earrings and a classic silver Van Cleef & Arpels necklace. Keep an eye out for her exact dress, currently on sale at Net-a-Porter – it's sure to sell out fast!
Jacquemus isn't the only designer that approves of halter dresses. Other popular choices included Alexis, Staud, and Dries Van Noten.
Fishnet Fashion
Sofia Richie Grainge and Rebecca Donaldson showed their love for fishnet heels, taking a cue from this seasons hottest trend. But why stop at heels? The Scottish model, Rebecca Donaldson, opted for the equally trendy Jimmy Choo's Amita slingbacks in white.
Don't forget about fishnet flats – they're the perfect way to add a touch of edginess to any outfit (and they're easier to walk in during the bustling paddock!).
Silk Scarf Styling
Nothing screams high-end quite like a silk scarf – and these WAGs know it. Carmen Montero Mundt, the partner of Mercedes-AMG driver George Russell, took it to the next level by rocking a silk scarf not once, but twice, during the Monaco Grand Prix weekend.
From Hermès to Prada to Saint Laurent, the brands of choice were as luxurious as the wearers themselves. Want to rock this trend? Wear it in your hair, around your neck, or both. You can't go wrong with a silk scarf!
Chanel Slingbacks
Kika Cerqueira Gomes, the wife of McLaren driver Lando Norris, knows how to pirouette in style. Last year, she graced the paddock in a billowy button-down shirt, vintage Levi's, Hermès Oran sandals, and a vintage Gucci Jackie bag. This year, she upgraded her look with a black knit dress and Chanel flat slingbacks, adding a touch of newness with G-logo Gucci sunglasses.
Nothing quite says "chic" like a pair of Chanel slingbacks - these shoes are a staple for fashion-forward women everywhere.
Top-Handle Mini Bags
Tiny yet mighty, the top-handle mini bag is the ultimate accessory for racing fans. These little bags meet all necessary bag requirements, fitting just the essentials like a Rhode Tinted Peptide Lip Treatment, iPhone, and tiny card case. Plus, you can easily attach your paddock pass to the top loop without ruining your outfit. Popular designer choices included Hermès, Bottega Veneta, and Jacquemus.
These fashionable WAGs took the paddock by storm, demonstrating that racing style is anything but subtle. From halter dresses to fishnet shoes, these women dominated the Monaco Grand Prix fashion scene and earned their spots as the unofficial style icons of the event. So, who's ready to take some style inspiration from these chic WAGs? I know I am!
