When the stakes are high in the ring, fashion outside it follows suit. The recent Usyk vs. Dubois showdown at Wembley wasn't just a clash of heavyweights, it was a masterclass in event-ready style. And while all eyes were on the fighters, fashion insiders couldn't help but notice the cool, confident energy of women in the crowd, blending sportswear and elevated fashion with effortless flair.
Whether you are ringside at the next big match or tuning in from a VIP lounge, boxing-inspired style for women has entered a knockout era. And one rising style icon to watch? Jutta Leerdam, Olympic skater and fitness muse whose unapologetically athletic, polished aesthetic feels tailor-made for nights like these.
The formula? A mix of statement layers, smart tailoring, and just the right amount of edge. Think elevated bomber jackets, leather trousers, sheer tops, and bodycon dresses paired with box-fresh sneakers or heeled boots. It is not about blending in, it is about bringing fashion-forward energy to a high-adrenaline space.
Bomber Jackets: A satin varsity jacket or sleek leather bomber captures the spirit of the ring. Bonus points for metallic or logo details that echo boxing robes.
Sleek Pants or Skirts: Faux leather trousers or sporty midi skirts offer movement and impact. Style with a tucked-in tank or sculpted corset top.
Athleisure Blending: Channel Jutta Leerdam with a racerback top, zip-up hoodie, or a body-skimming jumpsuit finished with a designer bag and sleek sunglasses.
Bold Accessories: Oversized hoops, sporty shades, and mini crossbody bags add punch to the look without taking over.
One of the best parts of dressing for a boxing event? The versatility. Swap sneakers for heels, throw on a statement coat or metallic clutch, and your ringside look is suddenly party-ready. It is sport-meets-glamour, designed to keep up from pre-fight cocktails to the final bell.
