Frankie Bridge Makes Wimbledon Debut With Zendaya-Inspired Shoe Choice

Zendaya earned critical acclaim when she hit the Rome leg of her Challengers Tour in April with real tennis balls embedded in her stilettos. Now, Frankie Bridge is taking cues from the Hollywood actress with ball-themed footwear for day four of Wimbledon.

Frankie, who looked stunning in a keyhole backless dress from small label Anna Louise Boutique, took to Instagram to share details of her shoes. The £135 dress features a graceful halter neck and open back, exuding a timeless sophistication and grace that gives the silhouette a very Marilyn Monroe feel.

If you love Frankie’s dress but are on a budget, Pretty Lavish’s Gabrielle Midaxi Halter Dress is £45.50 (was £65) and offers wearers a similar halter-style top and a flattering ‘midaxi’ length.

While the dress is certainly eye-catching, it’s Frankie’s shoes that have us smitten. The mother of two made a very unique foot choice in white slingback stilettos with tennis balls across the heel tips. It’s unclear whether she purchased these shoes along with the balls or added them herself, but we’re hazarding a guess that it’s the latter, given that Frankie wrote in an Instagram Story that she and her stylist “did something.”

For good measure, the star uploaded a close-up of her impressive heels, tagging Law Roach, an American fashion designer who was clearly the one behind Zendaya’s sneakers. We can confirm, however, that these heels aren’t exactly the same as the ones worn by the Hollywood star, as Zendaya’s pair didn’t feature Frankie’s slingback design.

We’re eagerly awaiting more information from the former Saturdays singer on how they managed to get the balls through their heels. Meanwhile, in other Wimbledon week news, Kate Middleton’s parents Carole and Michael arrived at the sporting event yesterday. While there was no sign of Kate, Carole ensured the family’s style was solid in a floral-print Ceffin Irina dress, £290, and a ME+EM cream cotton herringbone tailored cropped blazer, £295. If you like her look but don’t want to spend £290, you can buy an alternative dress from Boden for £98 here.
