Princess Charlene of Monaco Chooses Zimmermann for Breezy South of France Styling With Prince Albert II and Children
Princess Charlene wore Zimmermann's Dawning Sunray dress. The look featured a high neckline with cape silhouette sleeves and sunray pleats throughout. On both the bodice and the skirt of the ivory dress was black embroidery and patterning styled with botanical inspiration — a bouquet of florals featured throughout for an added dose of femininity and summertime styling.

The royal added further to her look, wearing a pair of slingback ballerina flats courtesy of Gianvito Rossi and accessorized with a pair of sunglasses by Louis Vuitton, a favorite designer of the royal.
Princess Charlene's family favored daytime outing royal styling. Prince Albert II wore a navy suited look complete with a tie. The couple's children wore summery pieces, with Prince Jacques in a polo while Princess Gabriella favored a botanical inspired dress with hues of green, red, blue and yellow.
Zimmermann, an Australia-based brand, is a departure from the luxury wear Princess Charlene has a tendency to style. Last June, the royal wore a blue gown with exposed shoulders courtesy of Louis Vuitton for the losing ceremony of the 64th Monte Carlo Television Festival. The royal often styles pieces from other labels like Akris and Elie Saab, among others.
The last time Princess Charlene coordinated with her children was last April during a visit to Brittany in France. Princess Charlene styled a plaid wool jacket and coordinated trousers from Ralph Lauren Collection alongside her daughter, who wore a similarly toned wool coat with angular lapels and a soft collar.

The designer began working for the French luxury brand Givenchy in 2024 and Macron's visit gave Kate the perfect opportunity to go back to Burton in celebration of French culture.

Hynes reveals emotional story behind try celebration
Footy players have been doing their bit to raise money for Try July with their celebrations, but there was extra meaning behind Nicho Hynes' dance on Friday night as he paid an emotional tribute to the passing of Steven Munster. Hynes made his NRL debut alongside Cameron Munster at the Storm back in 2019 and spent plenty of time with his father in the sheds after games. It's why he wanted to honour him after scoring a try, with the support shown by teammates and rivals highlighting Munster's standing in the game. 'It was just a little dance that we used to do every time we had a couple of beers together,' the Sharks halfback said after he scored twice in the 24-12 win over the Dolphins. 'I've just been thinking about him a lot. I've been talking to my girlfriend about it. That could have been me. That could be anyone waking up without their dad or a parent. 'I'm sending lots of love to his family. I just remember after games at Melbourne, seeing his old man and old lady in the sheds always smiling and happy. 'It touched me a lot, big time.' The friendship goes back to 2018 when Hynes was new in Melbourne and was taken in by Munster who supported him early on and made him feel at home. The former Dally M Medal winner says he idolises the Storm champion who bravely led the Maroons to State of Origin glory on Wednesday night just days after his father died. 'I think he was meant to be on the Aussie tour that year and I think something happened and he got kicked out or whatever and he ended up coming to pre-season, which was my first pre-season there,' Hynes recalled. 'I was a nobody. I was literally there on a train and trial (deal) and he didn't have to give me any time of day, but that's not the Melbourne Storm way. They do give everyone time of day. 'He ended up having me at his house for a couple of weeks and whenever he wanted to go for a feed, he'd ask me to go for a feed. He was just someone who was so nice and caring and wanted to help out and make me better. 'I looked up to him and I've looked up to him ever since I met him. He's just someone I idolise. 'Even now, seeing the way he's handled it and went out and performed the other night, I don't think I've seen and played with a better rugby league player live – Cameron Smith, obviously – but Cam Munster… what he's gone through to do that and deliver, I'm just so proud of him.'
