During her latest appearance, Princess Charlène shows off her sporty side – and is almost unrecognizable.
Princess Charlène, 47, is usually known for her stylish and perfectly polished appearances in elegant pantsuits or chic dresses. However, at a recent event in Monaco, the Princess looked completely different.
Princess Charlène: Showing Her Sporty Side
Together with her husband, Prince Albert II, she attended the “Road Safety Day” at Larvotto Beach. The event, aimed at raising awareness for road safety and promoting physical activity, provided the perfect occasion to leave her usual elegant wardrobe behind and opt for a more relaxed look.
Instead of an elegant dress or high heels, the 47-year-old chose simple black trousers and a long-sleeved turtleneck top in the same color. Over it, she wore a striking red vest – the only pop of color in her outfit, instantly creating a cheerful vibe. Her hair was pulled back tightly, and she hid her face behind oversized sunglasses, a signature accessory she often wears. Instead of pumps or sandals, she opted for comfortable white sneakers, while red lips added a small yet elegant touch.
A rare sight: With her sporty attire and sunglasses, the former professional swimmer was almost unrecognizable at first glance. However, her outfit perfectly suited the occasion, as Charlène didn’t hesitate to actively participate in the event – even taking a ride on a bicycle herself.
Prince Albert Keeps It Casual
Prince Albert II also embraced a relaxed style. He paired light-colored trousers with a blue shirt and a dark blue blazer. A red-and-white cap and sunglasses completed his laid-back outfit.
On Instagram, the Princess’s unexpected look sparked both excitement and surprise. While most fans loved the new style, others barely recognized her among the other sporty participants. “Wow, I almost didn’t see you! I’m not used to seeing you like this,” one follower commented.
