DETAILS:
Fresh off her title run, Coco Gauff
brought the Coupe Suzanne Lenglen into the heart of Paris on Sunday, sharing a moment of celebration with thousands of fans at Place de la Concorde.

After recently teaming with the Italian fashion label Miu Miu for an exclusive on-court collaboration, Gauff leveled up her off-court fashion for the accompanying commemorative photo shoot. She had previously worn the brand off-court, including two custom gowns at the Oscars in Los Angeles this spring, and a glittering gold gown for her April 2024 Vogue cover shoot. She opted for an elevated casual look to celebrate her second Grand Slam singles title.

Looking effortlessly cool with the Eiffel Tower in the distance, Gauff wore a white cotton shirt with an embroidered double collar, paired with a suede lambskin skirt and tonal belt. She finished the look with a custom navy blue blouson jacket and her signature Miu Miu x New Balance 530 SL sneakers in black, white and gum-soled colorway.

But high fashion wasn’t all that was on show. Gauff’s trophy shoot came with an uplifting message to fans on social media, as the magnitude of her triumph only continued to sink in in the hours after the match. In a heartfelt Instagram post, she spoke about overcoming doubts — saying that the Gauff of three years ago who lost the French Open final to Iga Swiatek
would love to see her now.
