From Race Tracks to Runaways: How Formula 1 Redefined Luxury and Fashion

The WAGs of Formula 1 drivers, such as Alexandra Saint-Mleux, Carmen Montero Mundt, Fransisca ‘Kika’ Cerqueira Gomes, Lily Muni He, Kelly Piquet, and Rebecca Donaldson, play an important role in bringing Formula 1 and fashion together. Their appearances at the paddock and on social media highlight aspirational looks that combine luxury and ordinary elegance. WAGs serve as bridges to new audiences, particularly women, helping Formula 1 break out of its traditionally male-dominated fanbase. Each Formula 1 weekend has become a fashion extravaganza. Designers and brands use the opportunity to highlight their products. The Monaco Grand Prix, in particular, works as a runway presentation, combining high-speed thrills with the refinement of haute fashion.

From Schumacher’s timeless elegance to Hamilton’s cutting-edge style, Formula 1 has positioned itself as a leader in the fusion of sport and fashion. Combined with high-profile brand collaborations and the rise of influential figures within the paddock, Formula 1 is crafting a narrative that goes beyond racing, inspiring fans to dream of the luxurious, fast-paced lifestyle it embodies.

Formula 1 isn’t just setting the pace on the track—it’s redefining the world of luxury and lifestyle off it.
