If you thought the Miami Grand Prix was just about horsepower and pit stops, darling, you clearly missed the memo. This past weekend, Miami transformed into the world’s most glamorous runway, where the paddock was as much about Prada as pole positions. The 2025 Miami Grand Prix wasn’t just a race—it was a style summit, a collision of high-octane fashion, celebrity wattage, and the kind of exclusivity that makes even the Met Gala look like a casual brunch.
From Lewis Hamilton’s sartorial statements to BLACKPINK’s Lisa redefining the meaning of “It Girl,” the Miami circuit was ablaze with looks that will be dissected, duplicated, and—let’s be honest—never quite matched. Let’s take a grid walk through the most iconic F1 looks of the week, the celebrities who set the tone, and the brands that turned the paddock into a playground for the world’s elite.
The Paddock’s Power Players: Drivers as Fashion Icons
Gone are the days when drivers were mere mannequins for sponsor logos. In 2025, F1’s grid is a who’s who of global style. Lewis Hamilton, now in Ferrari red, continues to set the bar impossibly high. His Miami look? A custom Grace Wales Bonner suit, cropped jacket, high-waisted trousers, and an embroidered sash—a nod to his African heritage and a masterclass in blending tradition with modernity. Hamilton’s presence at the Met Gala as co-chair earlier this month only cemented his status as the sport’s reigning style king.
Lewis Hamilton said:
For some reason, for a long time, particularly when I got into the sport, no one was into fashion. You couldn’t see it anywhere. People were just wearing mismatched stuff all the time.
Charles Leclerc, meanwhile, is the poster boy for sleek, youthful tailoring. His off-track wardrobe—think sharp blazers, crisp shirts, and the occasional Jacquemus statement piece—has made him a muse for both classic and contemporary menswear brands. And let’s not forget Zhou Guanyu, whose affinity for Rick Owens and Lululemon has made him the darling of streetwear aficionados and luxury labels alike.

WAGs and It Girls: The Real Style Stars
If the drivers are the main event, the women of the paddock are the scene-stealers. Alexandra Saint Mleux, Ferrari’s unofficial “It Girl” and Charles Leclerc’s partner, has become a phenomenon in her own right. Her Miami look—a red long-sleeve Jacquemus minidress—was an instant viral moment, racking up millions of views and cementing her as the face of F1’s new era of glamour.

BLACKPINK’s Lisa: The Viral Queen of Miami
But if there was one name on everyone’s lips this weekend, it was Lisa of BLACKPINK. Her arrival at the Miami International Autodrome in a Ferrari Autumn/Winter 2025 ensemble sent social media into meltdown. Lisa mingled effortlessly with Hamilton, Leclerc, and even Gordon Ramsay, her every move trending worldwide under hashtags like #LisaAtF1 and #LisaMiamiGP.
Her look—a fusion of K-pop edge and Italian luxury—symbolized the new era of F1: global, glamorous, and utterly unbothered by old rules. Lisa’s presence wasn’t just a celebrity cameo; it was a cultural moment, a reminder that F1 is now as much about pop culture as it is about pole positions.

Lisa’s presence symbolizes the fusion of fashion, entertainment, and high-performance sports. With her growing global influence and massive fanbase, Lisa is redefining what it means to be a modern icon on the world stage.
Celebrities, Socialites, and the VIP Circuit
Miami’s Grand Prix is now a magnet for A-listers. This year’s guest list read like a Vanity Fair Oscar party: Timothée Chalamet in Chrome Hearts and Racing Bulls kit, Rosé of BLACKPINK waving the chequered flag in a moto-jacket and Puma Speedcats, and Ivanka Trump dazzling in a gold Andrea Almeida mini-dress. Jennifer Lopez brought the house down with a live performance, her Louboutins as sharp as her vocals.
The city’s hotspots—David Yurman’s new flagship, Carbone Beach, and the Brunello Cucinelli dinner at the Lido Restaurant Surf Club—were awash with models, actors, and moguls. Each event was a masterclass in high-low dressing: think vintage YSL, custom Bode, and the kind of jewelry that requires its own security detail.

Team Kits: When Uniforms Become Fashion Statements
2025 is the year teamwear went couture. Mercedes-AMG Petronas’ new Adidas collaboration debuted in Miami, with George Russell and rookie Kimi Antonelli sporting the now-iconic “mangrove” print—an homage to Miami’s native flora. The puffy silver jacket, already a meme, is the must-have item of the season.
Ferrari’s kit, meanwhile, is all about classic Italian tailoring, with Hamilton and Leclerc unveiling race suits that blend heritage with high fashion. Red Bull’s Castore partnership continues to push boundaries, while McLaren’s papaya-hued collection is a nod to their relentless pursuit of victory—and style.
Formula1.com said:
The collaboration has created a range that not only promotes excellence but does so in a sleek and culturally relevant way. Aside from style, Adidas is all about performance, and Mercedes are reinventing their challenge.
The Social Media Frenzy
Instagram was ablaze with #F1Miami2025, #LisaAtF1, and #F1StyleIcon. Fan accounts meticulously tracked every look, from Alexandra Saint Mleux’s Jacquemus dress to George Russell’s Adidas ensemble. TikTok was flooded with “get ready with me” videos, while X (formerly Twitter) debated the merits of Hamilton’s cropped jacket versus Leclerc’s minimalist chic.
