Monica Barbaro joined Sunday’s Wimbledon crowd in a refined summer look built on one of her signature style pillars: low-key luxury with an editorial edge. The “A Complete Unknown” star and Dior ambassador attended day seven of the tournament in neutral tones and structured accessories, anchored by minimalist stilettos from Ralph Lauren.
Her shoes — the Perrin Sandals in Lux Cream — are crafted in Italy from smooth calfskin with slim crisscross straps, a tonal sole, and a rounded insole edge for clean structure. The 4-inch heel offers subtle lift without interrupting the soft silhouette of the foot. The design debuted on Ralph Lauren’s spring 2024 runway, where it underlined a collection focused on architectural restraint and refined utility.
Barbaro styled the heels with a semi-sheer slip dress in white, cut on the bias for fluid movement. The ankle-length silhouette featured a plunging V-neckline, delicate spaghetti straps and subtle vertical seaming through the bodice — a pared-back approach she’s leaned into throughout this year’s press tour for “A Complete Unknown.”
Her Wimbledon outfit follows a string of Dior looks in the same minimalist vein, including a navy silk suit with wide-leg trousers in Berlin and a black wool crepe midi at the film’s London photocall. For the New York premiere, she wore Dior Cruise 2021 lace — an ivory 1970s silhouette that nodded to her portrayal of folk icon Joan Baez.
On Sunday, she finished the look with Ralph Lauren Collection’s The Ralph Small Shoulder Bag in tan calfskin, a mini structured silhouette detailed with curved seaming and drawstring-inspired loops. Jewelry came courtesy of Bvlgari: an 18K yellow gold Serpenti Viper bracelet with diamond pavé and a matching gold ring. Barbaro joined Bvlgari as an ambassador in 2024, shortly before Dior named her the face of its women’s collections. Both brands fall under the LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton umbrella — a connection that’s made her a go-to presence on this year’s high fashion circuit.
