From Kaia Gerber to Rachel Zegler, the Best Celebrity Looks at the 2026 US Open Are Winning the Tournament
The style Grand Slams keep coming.
The 2026 US Open began on August 30, and the serves weren't reserved for the racquet-wielding athletes on center court. Celebrity tennis-goers came out swinging on the fashion front, wearing attire from designers like Fendi and Gucci, as well as sportswear names like Adidas and Nike.
Thanks to the qualifying matches held during Fan Week, the VIP section at New York's Billie Jean King National Tennis Center was buzzing as early as Aug. 24. Warming up the blue carpet for legends like Serena Williams and Naomi Osaka, Kaia Gerber demonstrated that, contrary to Wimbledon, tennis whites aren't required at the US Open. The actor's little black dress and tiger-print Fendi Baguette Bag made her unmissable in the stands.
Even before official matches began, Kaia Gerber ditched tennis whites at the 2026 US Open.
Fast forward to the halfway point of the tournament, and sporty tennis-inspired styles took the lead. Billie Jean King showcased her signature Adidas sneakers in cobalt blue; Lexi Minetree wore the white trainer trend with a pinstripe two-piece; and Danielle Brooks paired Louis Vuitton's pleated tennis skirt with a matching practice-proof T-shirt.
The US Open isn't just the most high-profile place for tennis's biggest stars to showcase their skills—of the sport and style varieties. Beyond the on-court serves, A-listers inside suites from Ralph Lauren, IHG, Moët Chandon, and more are showcasing no shortage of summer-to-fall fashion inspiration. Luckily for fans, the style tournament runs until September 13. Ahead, see and shop the best celebrity looks that the 2026 US Open has to offer. And don't forget to bookmark this page, because Marie Claire will be updating it with our favorite outfits all tournament long.
Suni Lee
Suni Lee deserves a gold medal for her Tommy Hilfiger look.
On Sept. 8, Suni Lee tied a patterned neck scarf around her Wimbledon-ready tennis whites, giving the short-sleeve shirtdress and a sold-out east-west bag by Tommy Hilfiger an effortlessly cool, New York twist.
Latto
Latto gave off major Gucci girl energy at the US Open.
Who knew Gucci offered a monogrammed visor? Thankfully, Latto did. The rapper doubled up on double-G designs by pairing her ponytail-looping headpiece with a matching tennis skirt, platform mules, and an itty-bitty bag.
Natalia Bryant
Natalia Bryant wore butter yellow and sky blue on the tournament's carpet.
Natalie Bryant isn't ready to store away her butter yellow styles just yet. So, before switching to mustard yellow for fall, the model stacked an asymmetrical Oxford shirt over straight-leg jeans at the US Open.
Becky G
Becky G looked fresh from a '90s tennis tournament in Guizio.
Bringing the celebrity-beloved brand Guizio as her plus-one, Becky G showed off a charcoal gray, pinstripe skirt set that's currently listed for final sale. Hurry, because the under-$400 'fit could disappear before the next US Open match.
Issa Rae
Issa Rae gave the Bermuda shorts trend the fall treatment.
On the tennis tournament's blue carpet, Issa Rae proved the Bermuda shorts trend has lots of fall potential—especially if the knee-length bottoms boast a rich shade of chocolate brown. The Insecure actor French-tucked a white button-down from Tommy Hilfiger into the pleated waistband of her pair.
Rachel Zegler
The actor wore navy blue to her first US Open.
On Sept. 6, Rachel Zegler styled a navy blue bustier dress from House of CB (the same tea-length style in Jennifer Lopez's summer-to-fall closet) with the heeled flip-flops trend. When her hands weren't in her pockets, the West Side Story star's tennis ball-tinted manicure stole the show.
Ziwe
The talkshow host returned to the US Open in Roberto Cavalli.
Opting out of traditional tennis whites, the comedian Ziwe styled a vintage Roberto Cavalli matching set with butter yellow block heels from Staud.
Sophia Bush
Sophia Bush's US Open outfit would work in an office, too.
One Tree Hill actor Sophia Bush celebrated Open Pride at the US Open. Her belted camel-colored jacket, white pencil skirt, and pointy suede pumps would make for a perfect fall workwear look, too.
Danielle Brooks
Danielle Brooks wore a full Louis Vuitton 'fit for her first US Open since 2018.
Danielle Brooks brought Louis Vuitton to Arthur Ashe Stadium in a crewneck T-shirt and pleated mini skirt from the brand. She accessorized her skirt set with the monogrammed Speedy Trunk, which, thanks to its mini size, complied with the tournament's bag policy.
Martha Stewart
While the multi-hyphenate mogul skipped the blue carpet, she still served for the cameras.
On day three, Martha Stewart joined the US Open party in a quintessentially on-brand outfit: an ivory linen blazer layered over a matching button-down and slim blue jeans.
Alexandra Daddario
Alexandra Daddario represented New York Knicks fans at the US Open.
Alexandra Daddario made several stops at the US Open in the first week of the tournament. On Sep. 2, she took a more casual approach with her tennis attire, pairing a navy blue quarter-zip with white trousers and high-vamp snakeskin flats from Khaite. For her high-low accessories, the actor sported a New York Knicks baseball cap and a Hermès Birkin bag. (Casual.)
Constance Wu
Constance Wu's color story was classic, but it still turned heads.
The stripe trend took over Constance Wu's US Open outfit. She arrived in a black-and-white button-down, a mini skirt, and platform espadrille sandals from Missoni.
Laurie Hernandez
Laurie Hernandez boarded the little white dress bandwagon at the US Open.
The Olympic gymnast deserves another gold medal for her lovely LWD on day three of the US Open. Judging by the bodice's itty-bitty bow and the linen-looking skirt, there's a chance Laurie Hernandez wore this $140 dress from Reformation.
Billie Jean King
Billie Jean King modeled her own Adidas sneakers.
On day three, Billie Jean King delivered the ultimate Grand Slam: She styled her namesake Adidas Sneakers, combining the silhouette of the Sambas and the celebrity-beloved cobalt color trend.
Yara Shahidi
The Grown-ish actor pulled out all the stops for her first US Open.
Yara Shahidi delivered a masterclass in styling summer's stripe trend for fall. She wore a cropped sweater and a matching mermaid maxi skirt, courtesy of Monse. Her entire look is still available—if you have over $1,600 to spare.
Lindsay Hubbard
Lindsay Hubbard brought the capri pant trend to the US Open.
Summer House star Lindsay Hubbard confirmed capri pants season isn't over yet. Staying loyal to summer's trending shades, patterns, and silhouettes, Hubbard paired a peplum top from New York designer Caroline Constas with the matching polka-dotted capris.
Lexi Minetree
Lexi Minetree attended her first US Open in an adorable two-piece.
The star of Prime Video's Legally Blonde prequel, Elle, didn't wear a single splash of pink at her first US Open match. Instead, Lexi Minetree looked coastal chic in a pinstripe-and-navy-blue skirt set by the Venezuela-based brand Port De Bras. Bonus: Her exact look is not only available but also on sale.
Queen Latifah
Queen Latifah traded full-length blazers for cropped sleeves.
For Naomi Osaka's first official 2026 US Open match, Queen Latifah kept it cool in a black tank top, wide-leg trousers, and a pinstripe blazer with three-quarter-length sleeves. Don't miss the statement jewelry: a chunky chain necklace and drop earrings.
Maura Higgins
Maura Higgins turned heads in Chanel at the US Open.
Maura Higgins set a high style bar for herself at Wimbledon 2026, wearing vintage Chanel with Zendaya-approved, tennis ball-punctured pumps. On day two of the US Open, the Love Island star continued her Chanel streak in a gray raglan tee and a slitted pencil skirt.
For a '50s-inspired twist on tennis-core, she accessorized with white cat-eye sunglasses, a thick headband, peep-toe pumps, and a compact crossbody bag by Chanel. (Peep its racquet-shaped pocket.)
Alexandra Daddario
The White Lotus actor's LWD made her crimson-colored clutch pop.
Cutting it close to the "no white after Labor Day" deadline, for an earlier US Open outing, Daddario paired the perfect little white dress from Reformation with fall-appropriate accessories: a tomato red suede clutch and cool-toned blue loafers.
Tate McRae
Tate McRae went all in on sporty styling at the 2026 US Open.
For day one of the tournament, Tate McRae made her US Open debut in Adidas knitwear, matching micro shorts, and $100 Stan Smith sneakers. Gucci's monogrammed Horsebit Ristretto Shoulder Bag upgraded her high-low look to four-figure status.
Inde Navarrette
Inde Navarette sourced Adidas for her US Open tracksuit, too.
Fellow first-timer Inde Navarette channeled an off-duty athlete. The Obsession star wore a full Adidas outfit, which featured an oversized jacket, side-striped track pants, and white sneakers with forest green laces.
Lindsey Vonn
Lindsey Vonn dressed up for the 2026 US Open.
Olympic alpine skier Lindsey Vonn is still awaiting her ACL surgery, but that didn't stop her from testing 2026's green color trend at the US Open. The turtleneck dress, with its timeless waistline tie, made her one of the most elegant spectators on day one. Meanwhile, Vonn's east-west snakeskin purse by Verified proved animal-print accessories are still winners for fall.
Brandy
Brandy brought major '90s energy to the US Open.
Brandy looked like she time-traveled from the '90s to day one of the US Open. "The Boy Is Mine" singer's multicolor skirt set and matching head scarf embodied nostalgia at its most fun.
Grounding the bold look in today's trends, she slipped chunky socks into croc-embossed loafers by Versace. (The unconventional combination has recently found fans in Hailey Bieber, Zoë Kravitz, and Olivia Rodrigo.)
Serena Williams
Serena Williams sat with Anna Wintour during Fan Week at the US Open.
During Fan Week, Serena Williams cosplayed a casual spectator in a bubblegum pink Nike windbreaker. Much like her cobalt blue look at a pre-US Open pickleball tournament, this shade is having a moment on the street style scene. Expect to see more of it once the tournament is well underway.
Kaia Gerber
Kaia Gerber channeled Carrie Bradshaw and her mother, Cindy Crawford, at the US Open.
Kaia Gerber delivered a Carrie Bradshaw-coded combination at Roger Federer's US Open exhibition match on Aug. 25. Between the LBD by Yana Matkiviski, the animal-print Fendi Baguette, and the peep-toe pumps, you'd think the actor plucked every piece from the illustrious fashion girl's closet.
Da'Vine Joy Randolph
Da'Vine Joy Randolph traded tennis whites for a luxe chocolate brown look.
Two years ago, Da'Vine Joy Randolph's coastal-chic hat made quite an impression at the 2024 US Open. This time, she traded a statement-making headpiece for a chocolate-brown dress and striking sunglasses.
Tinashe
Tinashe brought Wimbledon's dress code to NYC, but not before taking creative liberties.
While Tinashe wore white from head-to-toe at the 2026 US Open, she didn't polish the matching set the Wimbledon Way. Not only was the collared shirt semi-sheer, but she also paired it with a mini pencil skirt. Here's hoping that more pop stars twist tennis-core styling like Tinashe.
