Saudi Arabia Grand Prix 2025 Race Style

As the engines roared in Jeddah on April 20th, the fashion stakes were just as high as the championship points. The women of Formula 1 brought their A-game to race day, blending desert glam with paddock polish. From breezy neutrals to luxury accessories, the style in the Saudi sun was effortlessly elevated — proving once again that when it comes to fashion, the WAGs are always front row ready.

Alexandra Saint Mleux, partner of Charles Leclerc, embraced the desert aesthetic with a refined monochromatic ensemble. She donned a sleeveless beige blazer paired with matching wide-leg trousers featuring front pleats, creating a silhouette that was both structured and breezy. Her accessories elevated the look: gold sunglasses by Karen Wazen, a shiny gold Bottega Veneta Andiamo clutch, and gold jewelry, including a double-drop necklace from Mango.

Rebecca Donaldson, the ever-stylish partner of Carlos Sainz, brought sleek tailoring to the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix paddock in an ensemble that perfectly married sharp structure with effortless elegance.

She wore a relaxed oversize blazer and matching tailored shorts from Australian label Camille and Marc, putting a high-fashion spin on desert dressing. The blazer featured subtle shoulder padding and she left the buttons widely undone, adding polish to the basic white tank underneath. Pairing a suit with a basic white tank top and slouchy, old-money-esque flats, the look was paddock mastery — a reminder that simplicity always wins when it’s done with intention. The overall vibe? Quiet luxury with a dose of paddock power.

.Making her debut appearance in the F1 paddock, Eli Babickova, partner of Mercedes rookie Kimi Antonelli, captivated onlookers with her refined and culturally attuned ensemble. She chose the Pearl Kaftan by Esmé New York, a piece that seamlessly blends modern sophistication with traditional design elements. The kaftan’s flowing silhouette and delicate pearl embellishments offered a graceful nod to Middle Eastern fashion sensibilities, perfectly suited for the Jeddah setting.

Eli complemented the kaftan with understated accessories: neutral-toned sandals, a minimalist clutch, and subtle gold jewelry, allowing the garment’s intricate details to shine. Her hair was styled in soft waves, and her makeup remained natural, emphasizing her effortless beauty.

This appearance not only marked Eli’s introduction to the F1 community but also showcased her keen fashion sense and ability to honor local culture through her attire. Her choice resonated with fans and fashion enthusiasts alike, setting a high bar for WAG style in the 2025 season.
