After Anna Wintour showed her support of Roger Federer in his bid to win the US Open, Roger returned the favour by attending New York Fashion Week with the Vogue Editor in Chief.
Federer and his girlfriend Mirka Vavrineck sat between Wintour at the Oscar de la Renta Spring 2007 show.
“He watched open-mouthed in the front row, clearly digging the show, and produced a huge grin when a model stopped in her tracks to present him with a bouquet of roses,” according to the FWD.
Federer seemed to be on such good terms with Wintour that she supposedly greeted him with a hug and a pat on the back. The pair looked quite sharp with Wintour wearing a black and white Oscar de la Renta dress, while the Swiss tennis World Number 1 traded his tennis whites for a navy suit and shirt.
As for what happened on the catwalk, well de la Renta did what he does best, make women look beautiful. The dresses were ladylike and classic, with floral patterns and embroidery and accessorized with Lucite necklaces.
At 72 years old the master of style and class seems like he will be doing this forever and has dressed some of the world’s most glamourous women, including Jackie Kennedy Onassis. With large beehive hair and Sixties shades it the show had a few Jackie O moments.
