It's Memorial Day Weekend, which holds an even more special place in the hearts of motorsport fans than it does for most people. Not only does the weekend host the annual Indianapolis 500, but it's also when the best drivers in the world and Hollywood's biggest names descend on Monte Carlo for the Monaco Grand Prix, which turns 95 this year. The prestigious racing event always leads to a bevy of impressive outfits, especially since it is scheduled so closely to Cannes, causing many of the glamorous film festival's guests to take the short journey up the coast to enjoy the race's festivities. This year, though, the focus isn't all on celebrity 'fits. The drivers, too, are garnering attention in the fashion department, a growing trend in F1 in recent years.
The charge has been led by Lewis Hamilton, the seven-time F1 World Champion and Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 team driver who's known for showing up to paddocks around the globe in mind-boggling ensembles by the likes of Rick Owens, Marc Jacobs, Prada, Dior, and Louis Vuitton. For media day on Thursday, Hamilton—who works with stylist Eric McNeal—stepped off a boat and into the seaside paddock in a baby-blue custom Dior knit by Kim Jones that featured the deepest V-neck I've personally ever seen. With it, he wore linen pants, electric-blue sneakers, white Cartier Panthère de Cartier sunglasses, and jewelry by Fabergé and Marie Lichtenberg. (For all the details, follow @hamazinglew on Instagram.) Meanwhile, Alpine F1 Racing drivers Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly both arrived at the race in Berluti from head to toe (the only exception being their H. Moser & Cie watches), while Daniel Ricciardo chose to wear his own brand, Enchanté, for the occasion. And that was only Thursday.
