A New Wave of WAGs is Transforming Fashion in the Sports World

      When Victoria Beckham attended David Beckham’s soccer matches in the late '90s, she attracted nearly as much attention in the stadium as the couple's developing romance. In many ways, Beckham was among the first WAGs (wives and girlfriends of athletes), a trend that originated in the British soccer scene in the early 2000s and later broadened to include other sports. Nowadays, a new generation of WAGs is emerging, altering the style landscape in the sporting world. With the increasing fame of Formula 1, fans are becoming more attentive not only to the drivers but also to their partners and their fashion choices at the Grand Prix events. Similarly, tennis is drawing fresh audiences, with fashion brands taking a more active role in the sport by styling WAGs and celebrity guests. Below, meet the new wave of WAGs who are becoming style icons in their own right.
