Do You Know What Anna Wintour and Kate Middleton Have in Common?

It's Monday, July 3. Do you know what that means? Nope, it's not just the day before the Fourth of July—it's the official start of Wimbledon. If you don't know your forehands from your volleys, don't fret: The tennis tournament boasts plenty of action in the fashion department. Specifically, two women always turn up to Wimbledon dressed to the nines: Anna Wintour and Kate Middleton, who both share a love of the game. (Yes, they both play the sport, as well.) 

The Duchess of Cambridge, in fact, is the official patron of Wimbledon— a title she took over from the Queen. From Alexander McQueen frocks to Zimmermann numbers, Middleton seems to save her chicest dresses for the annual event. Wintour, too, never misses a style beat at the tournament: She favors printed coats and dresses to cheer on Roger Federer from his player's box.

Erin Fitzpatrick
Senior News Editor

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
