Lehmann, who stars for Serie A champions Juventus, turned up at training camp with a striking difference.
The winger, dubbed the "world's sexiest footballer" arrived in blue denim and designer gear.
However, she also added glasses to her look.
Reacting on Instagram, one fan said: "So clean."
A second said: "Those glasses make you look beyond wonderful."
A third added: "Diva."
The 26-year-old had originally missed the cut from her nation's squad for the tournament.
However, an ankle injury to FC Koln midfielder Alena Bienz saw manager Pia Sundhage bring in the former Aston Villa star.
But Lehmann could struggle for minutes during the competition after struggling to break into the starting XI and instead being deployed as a makeshift defender.
She boasts 16.7 million followers on Instagram alone.

Regardless of her initial snub, on the platform she revealed she was delighted to receive a call-up.
She wrote: "I couldn't be happier to represent my country at the Euros. I'm so grateful for the opportunity. Let's make Switzerland proud and show how football is growing."
Lehmann was named on the bench for her nation's opening game against Norway in Basel on Wednesday.
She used to date Juventus men's team player Douglas Luiz, having joined him in a stunning double transfer from Aston Villa.
However, in May it was reported they had broken up.
Things had started well for Switzerland in their opening game with Nadine Riesen giving the Swiss a first-half lead.
However, a second-half collapse saw Norway win the clash 2-1, with former Ballon d'Or winner Ada Hegerberg scoring the equaliser before missing a penalty.
An own goal from Julia Stierli before that penalty miss was the decisive blow in the game.
With Finland also beating Iceland 1-0 in the opener, Switzerland currently sit in third in Group A.

Is England vs Spain on TV? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Euro 2025 final for free
England will get their shot at back-to-back European titles after clawing their way to the Euro 2025 final in Switzerland - and they will face familiar opponents on Sunday. Sarina Wiegman 's side produced another miraculous comeback in their last four clash against Italy, with Michelle Agyemang's 96th-minute equaliser saving the Lionesses from the brink of elimination. Chloe Kelly then tucked home her penalty rebound in the dying stages of extra time to book England's place in the final, where they will hope to emulate their Wembley heroics of Euro 2022. Kelly was the hero then, too, scoring the extra time winner in a 2-1 triumph over Germany. And England will take on Spain in a sensational rematch of the 2023 World Cup final after Aitana Bonmati's goal in extra time sent the world champions through to their first European final with a 1-0 victory over Germany in Zurich. Spain are looking to follow their World Cup triumph two years ago, where they beat England 1-0 in Sydney, with a first ever Euros title while the Lionesses will be out for revenge as they defend their title. Here's everything you need to know about the Euro 2025 final. When is the Euro 2025 final? The Euro 2025 final between England and Spain will take place on Sunday 27 July in at St Jakob Park, Basel. While kick-off times for the quarter-finals and semi-finals were 8pm, the final will start at 5pm BST (UK time). What TV channel is it on? Viewers will have a choice between BBC One and ITV 1, with both channels providing live coverage of the final. What is the England team news? Lauren James suffered an ankle injury during England's semi-final win against Italy and was forced off at half-time. The forward was later seen with ice on her ankle and Sarina Wiegman still ' does not know' is she will be available, but said James had returned to the training pitch and will be given as much time as possible to try and recover. If James is unable to feature in the final, Wiegman could decide to promote Chloe Kelly from the bench after her impact against Sweden and Italy. Or if Wiegman prefers to keep Kelly as an impact substitute, Beth Mead could come into the side. The England manager also suggested that Michelle Agyemang will keep to her own impact role, with Alessia Russo set to start up front. England could be unchanged elsewhere. Esme Morgan made her first major tournament start against Italy and is now likely to feature alongside Leah Williamson in defence, after the England captain recovered from her own ankle injury. Hannah Hampton has impressed in goal while Lucy Bronze and Alex Greenwood will continue as full-backs. England's midfield struggled to move the ball quickly enough against Italy but Keira Walsh, Georgia Stanway and Ella Toone are set to remain in place. Grace Clinton and Aggie Beever-Jones were used off the bench against Italy and will be among Wiegman's options again late in the game. England possible XI: Hampton; Bronze, Williamson, Morgan, Greenwood; Walsh, Stanway; Mead, Toone, Hemp; Russo What is the Spain team news? Centre-back Laia Aleixandri should return in defence alongside Spain captain Irene Parades after serving a one-game suspension. Spain will field two Ballon d'Or winners in their midfield three, with Aitana Bonmati and Alexia Putellas joined by the equally excellent Patri Guijarro in an all-Barcelona central unit. Cata Coll made a key double-save to rescue Spain at the end of normal time against Germany and will start in goal, with former Manchester United defender Ona Batlle and Olga Carmona - the scorer of Spain's goal in the 1-0 World Cup final win over England - as full-backs. Esther Gonzalez leads the golden boot standings with four goals so far and will remain Spain's No 9, with Claudia Pina - who scored both of Spain's goals in their 2-1 win over England in June - and Arsenal's Mariona Caldentey likely to join her in attack. Salma Paralluelo has struggled for form and fitness at the Euros but could have a say off the bench later on, while Athenea del Castillo has also made an impact off the bench throughout the tournament. Possible Spain XI: Coll; Batlle, Parades, Aleixandri, Carmona; Guijarro, Bonmati, Putellas; Caldentey, Gonzalez, Pina List of previous Euros winners 2022 - England (2-1 a.e.t vs Germany) 2017 - Netherlands (4-2 vs Denmark) 2013 - Germany (1-0 vs Norway) 2009 - Germany (6-2 vs England) 2005 - Germany (3-1 vs Norway) 2001 - Germany (1-0 g.g. vs Sweden) 1997 - Germany (2-0 vs Italy) 1995 - Germany (3-2 vs Sweden) 1993 - Norway (1-0 vs Italy) 1991 - Germany (3-1 a.e.t. vs Norway) 1989 - West Germany (4-1 vs Norway) 1987 - Norway (2-1 vs Sweden) 1984 - Sweden (1-1 vs England, 4-3 on penalties) Euro 2025 route to final

Man Utd chief was convinced transfer would 'send shiver down the spine of rivals'
Ed Woodward signed his fair share of flops during his ill-fated reign as Manchester United executive vice-chairman, but was left red-faced by one in particular after his failed spell Ed Woodward believed that Manchester United's 2015 acquisition of Bastian Schweinsteiger would "send shivers down the spines of rivals," only for the player to turn out to be a sensational flop. Woodward joined the board of directors of Old Trafford as an executive vice-chairman in 2012, before assuming David Gill's role of CEO the following year. And while the now 53-year-old aimed to hit the ground running with regards to welcoming fresh faces to the Red Devils squad, many of his transfers completely missed the mark. For instance, Woodward was at the helm when Paul Pogba' returned to United from Juventus in August 2016 in a mammoth deal. O f course, Pogba came through the youth system at United in 2011 before joining the Serie A stalwarts for a reported £1.5million the following year. But four years later, realising the error of their ways, the Red Devils board opted to bring him back to Old Trafford for a then-world-record fee of £89m. However, Pogba then returned to Juventus once more in 2022 on a free transfer, failing to recuperate even a fraction of the fee that they had spent bringing their academy graduate back to the northwest of England six years earlier. Pogba was just one of many expensive signings during Woodward's time at the club that failed to live up to expectations. Woodward was also at the helm when Schweinsteiger arrived from Bayern Munich in a £6.5m deal back in 2015, a move which on paper looked like a steal for the 13-time Premier League winners. After progressing through the Bavarian youth system in 2002, Schweinsteiger spent 13 years with Bayern, lifting eight Bundesliga titles, nine domestic cups and a Champions League. He also managed 121 caps for Germany and lifted the 2014 World Cup, before being named team captain following Philipp Lahm's retirement from international football. Given his wealth of experience at the highest levels, Woodward went as far as claiming that Schweinsteiger would leave rivals quaking in their boots when coming up against the midfield maestro shortly after his arrival in England. He was quoted as saying at the time: "It's fantastic to see a player like that come to Manchester United. "He's our first ever German, and what a German – he's won absolutely everything and comes here with fantastic experience. When people see Bastian on the team sheet, that's going to send some shivers down the spine." However, the reality is that Woodward may have set unreasonable expectations on the star, given how his tenure with the Premier League giants actually played out. During his maiden season with United, Schweinsteiger spent more than 130 days sidelined through injury. And when Jose Mourinho took the reins of the club from Louis van Gaal in the spring of 2016, he made it clear that Schweinsteiger was not part of his plans going forward, demoting the player to training with the U23 set-up in a move he faced heavy criticism for and that he has since admitted was a big mistake. Schweinsteiger played for United just 35 times over the course of his two-year stint with the club before he moved on to MLS outfit Chicago Fire in 2017. There, he scored eight goals and created 11 assists in 92 outings before retiring in 2019. Woodward, meanwhile, announced in 2021 that he would be resigning from his position at Manchester United. He parted ways with the club on February 1, 2022, but has since returned to work, having been appointed to the board of trustees for Bloomsbury Football Foundation last year.

England star Esme Morgan 'had it all' from a young age
The first football coach of Lionesses star Esme Morgan has said the defender "had it all" from a young was part of the England side who came from behind to beat Italy 2-1 on Tuesday to book a place in Sunday's Euro 2025 final against 24-year-old plays her club football for US side Washington Spirit, but began her footballing journey under the tutelage of Martin Windle in her home city of Windle described his former protégé as a "really, really nice human being" and remembered her footballing ability as "absolutely brilliant". Morgan joined Ecclesall Rangers, where Mr Windle is still chairman, aged seven and represented the club's boys teams in the Sheffield & District Sunday League until she left to sign for Manchester City aged 15."She had it all - she was brilliant," recalled Mr Windle, who paid tribute to his son Jon, another coach at Ecclesall Rangers, for his role in Morgan's early development."I couldn't have said to you 'She's going to be a professional footballer', because the likes of that didn't exist 20 years ago."My job was introducing her to football and she's carried on from there." Morgan has made two appearances for Sarina Wiegman's side during the tournament in Switzerland, one as a substitute against Sweden before starting against Italy. She was also part of the Lionesses squad which reached the Women's World Cup final in 2023, when they lost out to former High Storrs pupil, who attended the same school as Kyle Walker, impressed in Tuesday's semi-final, meaning she could be in line to feature again in the final. Morgan's former school said they "couldn't be prouder" after more late drama sent England into their second successive European final and third in as many major tournaments."Her contribution was immense and I think they should stick with her," said Mr Windle, who has been involved in grassroots football for 36 years and counting."Forwards and strikers win you games, defenders win you the cups and tournaments."
