Sports fans, rejoice—this summer is for you, and for those who subscribe to both sports season and fashion trends, the stands are the modern-day runway. From Jordan Woods’ lucky orange clutch (which has subsequently earned a spot in the Guggenheim for its services to the New York Knicks), to Tolami Benson’s show-stopping, pitch-side outfits; the fashionable attendees are certainly making a splash in sports-adjacent style circles.

Dedicated fans will know, Formula 1 is the one sport where street style (or should I say, track style) is a year-round affair. Whether it’s A-listers dressed to the nines in the paddock or spectators embracing lightweight layers in the grandstands, with 24 races across the globe (think Miami, Monaco or Abu Dhabi), looking chic is a prerequisite and F1’s WAG’s always deliver.

The women of F1 have always managed to stay one step ahead of the trends. With timelessness woven into the very fabric of the sport, the pieces they gravitate towards are driven less by the fleeting micro trends, and more by an enduring sense of polish. Take the reigning queen of the paddock, Nicole Scherzinger. Whilst her jubilant celebrations for Sir Lewis Hamilton’s 2008 Brazilian Grand Prix continue to make the rounds on TikTok 10 years later, her 2013 paddock look still feels remarkably current. From the structured white mini dress to the ever-reliable leopard print (and taupe Birkin 35 casually swung from her shoulder), it’s an outfit which would look right at home amongst the fashionable WAGS of today as it did a decade ago.
