Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton Wore Very Different Wimbledon Outfits in 2016

For this fashion editor obsessed with tennis, it's officially the best time of year: the start of Wimbledon. You've got the tennis GOATs (Roger Federer, Serena Williams) on the freshly cut grass, while the fashion GOATs (Anna Wintour, Kate Middleton) will soon be holding court in the well-dressed stands.
The tournament hasn't seen too much celebrity action yet, so I decided to throw it back to July 2016 when future sisters-in-law Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle both attended the Grand Slam in contrasting outfits. (Fun fact: Markle told Vanity Fair she met Prince Harry that very same month.) Markle wore an understated black wrap dress, while Middleton went for a cheery yellow Roksanda dress. Scroll down to see what they wore back in 2016.

She graduated magna cum laude from USC and lives in Los Angeles. 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 2015, where she is now the Associate Director of Fashion News. From the Oscars to the Met Gala, she leads the site's entire red carpet coverage strategy. She specializes in celebrity and fashion news but also enjoys writing travel features and runway reports.
