Wimbledon Day 2 brought as much, if not more, chaos than Day 1 with more seeded players falling victim to the first-round curse. A total of 23 seeds are out of the tournament across both the men's and women's draws, with two of the top three women's seeds eliminated and the most men's seeds out of the draw since 2021.
Amidst the mass exodus, Day 2 brought several standout fashion moments both on and off the court as players stepped out with their best style to impress at the third Slam of the year. Few of these styles are moving onto the next round, but all of them left a lasting impression.
World No. 7 Lorenzo Musetti stepped out for his first round match in a Bottega Veneta jacket made from the brand's signature intrecciato leather, the traditional weaving technique the Italian fashion house is known for. Shortly after, the brand announced Musetti as their newest global brand ambassador.
Musetti previously partnered with the brand for its campaign celebrating 50 years of Intrecciato in May. The Italian fell 2-6, 6-4, 5-7, 1-6 to Nikoloz Basilashvili, unable to draw inspiration from his semifinal run from last year.

Marta Kostyuk has consistently been listed as best dressed on court for several tournaments, and this year's Wimbledon kit certainly left an impression. The 22-year-old Ukrainian debuted a tennis dress featuring symmetrical side cutouts and an open back cutout with criss cross straps. Mini pleats adorned the bottom of the her skirt, and a white scrunchie and twin hairclips completed the look.
Although Kostyuk fell to Veronika Erjavec in three sets, the kit is expected to make a comeback on court during her doubles match later this morning.

Coco Gauff was arguably won best dressed of the tournament so far with her custom Wimbledon-inspired New Balance kit. The American debuted an intricately tailored two-piece kit consisting of a delicately embroidered corset romper and kilt-like tennis skirt with her Coco G2 shoes in white and apple green.
The corset's embroidery featured butterflies and strawberries stitched with flowers over woven patterns on lace as an ode to Wimbledon heritage. A belted tennis skirt completed the kit, an overall tribute to British punk rock. The World No. 2 suffered a shock loss to Dayana Yastremska 6-7 (3), 1-6.
Jessica Pegula made a statement prior to her match with an adidas warmup fit from the brand's London Originals Collection. The American paired a maxi skirt with a flowing train with an oversized half-sleeve warm-up jacket, both outfitted with matching green detailing.
The World No. 3 was defeated by Elisabetta Cocciaretto 6-2, 6-3, marking her first first-round exit since her loss to Aryna Sabalenka at Roland Garros in 2020.
Wimbledon continues play through July 13.
