STYLE icon Kate Middleton has captured the spirit of Wimbledon in a summery white dress, with a vibrant floral print.

The classic white dress was an unconventional choice for the Duchess of Cambridge, who usually wears bolder colours.

Seven-time champion Roger Federer smashed Croatian Marin Cilic on Centre Court in the men’s final.

The 35-year-old has become the oldest man in the open era to lift the Wimbledon trophy.

Recently, Kate revealed she begged her doctor to let her attend Wimbledon to watch Andy Murray in the final when she was pregnant back in 2013 — but he told her “definitely not”.

The Duchess, who gave birth to Prince George on July 22 — just two weeks after Murray beat Novak Djokovic — also revealed that she wrote to the Wimbledon champion to apologise for her absence, reports the Daily Mail.

“I was very heavily pregnant. I wrote to him [Murray] afterwards saying sorry for not being there.”
