Anna Wintour Just Abandoned Her Signature Uniform for a Surprising Drop-Waist Dress at Wimbledon

Anna Wintour's style is nothing if not consistent. She's worn the same variation of her uniform for decades—always topped with her sharply-cut bob hairstyle and oversized sunglasses, of course. Her favorite thing to wear is a midi or maxi dress in a colorful floral pattern. If the weather is warm, she'll wear the dress with strappy heeled sandals by Manolo Blahnik. Otherwise, you can reliably find her in tall boots and a trench coat.

At first glance, her newest Wimbledon outfit seems to follow this formula to a T. However, upon closer inspection, you'll notice that it's actually quite a departure for her because of the drop-waist silhouette. Wintour's dresses are usually nipped in at the waist or have a column-like shape—drop-waist styles haven't been in her repertoire until now. Scroll down to see what she wore to watch the 2025 men's semifinal matches with Tom Ford at Wimbledon today.
