Why Rosalía’s Jaw-Dropping Style at the 2025 US Open Is Shaking Up Everything You Thought You Knew About Cool

Ever noticed how the humble little white dress can transform from a simple wardrobe staple into an absolute style powerhouse? At the 2025 US Open, this classic piece wasn’t just about looking fresh—it was a full-on fashion statement under the bright New York sky. Celebs like Lindsay Lohan, the Fanning sisters, Jessica Alba, and Jessica Springsteen each brought their own unique twist to the crisp tennis whites everyone seemed to be rocking at Arthur Ashe Stadium. But here’s a question that’s been bouncing around my head: when it comes to pulling off this iconic look with maximum cool factor, who truly stole the show? Spoiler alert—it might just be Rosalía.

You’re gonna want to see how she mixed airy linens with metallic hues and swapped out sneakers for silver flats—because this isn’t your average tennis event style guide—it’s a masterclass in owning the uniform with fierce, individual flair.

As we learned over the course of the 2025 US Open, there are many ways to wear a little white dress. During the three weeks that the annual tennis tournament ran in New York City, we saw our favorite celebrities show up to Arthur Ashe Stadium in crisp tennis whites—Lindsay Lohan tapped Chanel’s archives for her minidress, the Fanning sisters showed us how to style a slip two ways, and Jessica Alba and Jessica Springsteen styled their white maxis with tan staples. But did anyone pull off the uniform in as cool a way as Rosalía?

The “Bizcochito” singer attended the tournament twice—both times to cheer on Spanish tennis star Carlos Alcaraz, and each time dressed in a little white dress styled with It girl pieces.

On September 2, our Motomami chose an airy white high-neck dress, seemingly made of linen, with a slight metallic sheen. She paired the sleeveless maxi with pointy silver leather flats and a little black cardigan that she buttoned only at the top. For some quirky touches, she added on chunky black oval shades, silver ear cuffs, and a big silver ring.

For her next appearance, on September 7, for the men’s singles finals (where Alcaraz defeated Italian Jannik Sinner), Rosalía wore a white shirtdress with buttons at the neckline, long sleeves, a fitted shirt-like bodice, and a flowy skirt. She styled it simply and elegantly, with pointy black kitten heels, a suede mustard jacket, and a black leather Dior book tote. Chunky gold hoop earrings, her favorite oval sunglasses, and a red hair bow capped off the ensemble.
