Welcome to the paddock, Kim Kardashian!
The fashion of WAGS—wives and girlfriends of athletes, for those who didn’t live through Victoria Beckham and Cheryl Cole’s early 2000s reign in England—has been studied just as closely as what happens on the field or court. While soccer WAGs have mostly shaped pop culture, in recent years, the partners of tennis stars and basketball players have also drawn attention for their style. Now, Kim Kardashian is officially making a case for dressing up the Formula 1 paddock, where she’s cheering on boyfriend Lewis Hamilton.
Hamilton and Kardashian only recently made their relationship Instagram official, but they’ve been linked since early February. The couple has been spotted at the Super Bowl, Coachella, and enjoying time together in the English Cotswolds, having dinner in Miami, and hanging out with their families as things seem to be getting more serious.

Kim appeared with her sister Khloe, first on a yacht and then at the Monaco Grand Prix paddock on Saturday, June 6. Both stuck to their classic style, with Kim nodding to the early WAG fashion. She wore a sheer black, fitted, embroidered bodysuit, flared blue jeans, black pointed stilettos, and black shield sunglasses—the silhouette and mix of sexy-casual felt very Victoria Beckham in Baden-Baden 2026. Khloe kept things more Monte Carlo summer, in a plunging halter top, black capri pants, and thong sandals.
It’s a big week for Hamilton, who is aiming for his first pole position with Ferrari. He’s known for his own bold style on and off the track; just last night, he appeared at the Circuit de Monaco in a striking sheer top covered in fluorescent sequins. The couple seems to share a fashion sense, blending sporty details with big luxury labels, and they’ve already found a strong style rhythm.
With a busy racing schedule ahead for Hamilton, expect to see more of Kim Kardashian on yachts and near the track throughout the week.
