It’s official—quiet luxury has taken a backseat, and playful patterns are stealing the spotlight. This time, it’s a two-print showdown: polka dots vs gingham. And thanks to Olivia Rodrigo’s standout Wimbledon appearance, gingham may have just taken the lead.

Serving vintage charm with a Gen Z twist, Rodrigo stepped into the Royal Box in a red-and-white gingham shirtdress straight out of Ralph Lauren’s Spring 2000 archives. The piece—a crisp, collared button-down with a tailored waist and a hem that skimmed the knees—felt like a love letter to the early aughts, with just the right dose of modern flair. The gingham wasn’t loud, but it was far from subtle. It walked that perfect line between retro and right now.


Rodrigo kept things classic with her accessories, pairing the dress with a ruby red Khaite Simona suede top-handle bag, oversized red-rimmed Karen Wazen sunglasses, and a stack of delicate white-gold rings, giving the whole look a punch of polish. The overall vibe? British garden party meets '50s Americana with a Gen Z twist. It’s no surprise that the look went viral—there’s something about the contrast of sweet gingham and sharp styling that makes it feel both timeless and trendy.

And if you're looking to recreate it, here are some trendy gingham fits inspired by Rodrigo's Wimbledon number. (Spoiler: you're going to want them all.)
