Fashion and sport are not so far universes that you might think. As soon as a large championship begins, the two worlds merge and create a real trend. Decryption.
Unmissable event for car racing enthusiasts, Formula 1 resumed on March 16 in Melbourne. Like every year, she then went through Monaco. This is the appointment not to be missed. Stars, influencers and even royalty meet there, transforming the circuit into a real parade. Because yes, F1, just like Roland-Garros, is largely overflowing from the sports framework … to influence fashion.
At the beginning of May, it is the tennis spirit that seizes the dressings: pleated skirts, polo shirts tied on the shoulders, white sneakers … The “tenniscore” style reigns. But barely time to get used to it as a new wave of a fashion with the arrival of F1. Make way for the Racing XXL jackets, bombers and a more rock look, more Edgy. The mini-skirts give their place to the pieces inspired by the paddocks. The vestiaire changes at all, almost overnight.
Rihanna, Dua Lipa, Rosalia, Kylie and Kendall Jenner play the game every year. They put on their most beautiful Formula 1 jackets. This is also the case of Louane, which in 2023, had wore a large black and blue leather jacket for the first in the film This summer !
This stylistic renewal is also carried by cinema. The film F1with Brad Pitt headlining, further feeds this craze, like what caused Challengers With Zendaya during Roland-Garros 2024.
It is therefore not surprising to see fashion houses, but also ready-to-wear brands incorporate this style into their collection. This is the case of major who recently collaborated with Hot Wheels for an ultra trendy clothing line. The brands are also collaborating with the F1 pilots, which have been propelled to the front of the stage in recent years. In particular Charles Leclerc who became APM Monaco Ambassador or Lewis Hamilton who recently worked with Lululemon.
The it-girls of the moment are also from this environment. We speak in particular of Alexandra Saint Mleux, the partner of Charles Leclerc, who has caused a lot of ink to flow this year. Its elegant and refined style inspires all fashionistas!
