Nicole Kidman embraced tailored elegance at the 2026 Wimbledon men’s singles final, stepping out in a sophisticated menswear-inspired ensemble that perfectly balanced classic and modern style.

However, fans were divided over the Oscar winner’s decision to wear such a layered outfit in the summer heat.

For the occasion, the Babygirl actress wore a cream-colored, double-breasted power suit by Ralph Lauren. While the price of Kidman’s look has not been publicly disclosed, it was likely custom-made or loaned from the luxury Ralph Lauren Collection.

Nicole Kidman Wears A Suit At Wimbledon In London

She completed the polished outfit with a pale pink button-down shirt, a matching pink silk tie, and white woven leather Christie Oxford shoes from the Ralph Lauren Collection, giving the traditionally masculine silhouette a soft, feminine twist.

If you'd like to recreate the look for less, the H&M Double-Breasted Blazer (around $48) offers a similar oversized silhouette with structured shoulders reminiscent of Kidman's jacket. Pair it with the ASOS DESIGN Tailored Wide-Leg Pants (around $50) in cream to capture the same elongated, tailored effect.

For footwear, swap the 59-year-old's designer oxfords for a pair of crisp white leather oxfords or polished loafers from retailers like Wolf & Badger (around $200). Finish the outfit with a slim pink silk necktie—often available from Amazon—to recreate the subtle pop of color that tied the entire look together.

The ensemble earned praise for its timeless, preppy aesthetic and offered a refreshing alternative to the dresses often seen courtside at Wimbledon. However, not everyone was convinced it was the right choice for a warm summer day. While many admired the sharp tailoring, others questioned whether a three-piece-inspired suit was simply too heavy for the season.

Fans React

While many fans loved the Balenciaga ambassador's polished Wimbledon look, others couldn't get past one detail: how warm it looked for a scorching summer day in London.

"How isn't she melting in the heat in that suit? I don't know how they can stand it," one person commented on Reddit. Another wrote, "She looks uncomfortable in it." A third added, "This weather is something else—I don't know how they can even stand to get dressed like that if they don't have to!"

Others pointed out that temperatures climbed above 30°C (86°F) during the tournament. "I know she's an Aussie, but it was over 30° in London yesterday, and Centre Court is like a cauldron where it's even hotter. Why would she wear so many layers? I'll bet she looked bedraggled and sweaty on her way home after the match. If not, she truly is a goddess," one fan joked.

Another commenter wrote, "No one can withstand that kind of heat wearing clothes that aren't designed for it." Someone else added, "Lots of celebs were dressed similarly. I was getting sweaty just looking at all of them." Others praised the tailoring but still questioned the practicality, with one writing, "Perfection. Though it seems a little warm for the actual event," while another simply said, "She must have been so uncomfortably hot."

Interestingly, this isn't the first time Kidman has worn a layered suiting look to Wimbledon. At the 2025 Championships, she also opted for a cream, menswear-inspired Brunello Cucinelli suit and received similar comments from fans who wondered how she stayed cool in the summer heat.
