Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix Street Style Trends to Shop

I expected a high-octane fashion experience when I secured my spot at the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix through Marriott Bonvoy. The famed international racing circuit hit record viewership this year—fueled as much by the breakneck challenges for the pole position on the track as the distinctive styles of the drivers and their fans.

Luxury fashion is everywhere you look on any of the 24 Grand Prix circuits. Louis Vuitton and Tag Heuer are major sponsors. Lewis Hamilton, George Russell, and Charles Leclerc’s paddock outfits have inspired collaborations between racing teams and the likes of Puma, Adidas, and Abercrombie & Fitch. Ferrari shows a runway collection at Milan Fashion Week each season. The rise of F1 Academy, the women’s league that just wrapped its third year, has brought a tidal wave of fashion and beauty tie-ins from Tommy Hilfiger, Charlotte Tilbury, and more—plus emerging paddock style icons like Chloe Chambers and Alba Hurup Larsen.

Still, I was overwhelmed—in a good way—by the over-the-top glamour at the Las Vegas Grand Prix. Over a 48-hour sprint in Sin City with Marriott Bonvoy, I got access to rival the Drive to Survive documentary crew’s: touring the Mercedes team garage; sitting on Turn 4 in the exclusive Las Vegas Club; hearing driver George Russell break down his race-day strategy before he’d go on to clinch a third-place trophy. Most appealing to my fashion editor heart, this VIP weekend gave me an up-close look at the best-dressed celebrities who also scored tickets.

In the stands at the Mercedes Las Vegas Club and outside the ten teams’ garages, I took careful notes on the street style trends stars like Beyoncé, Kendall Jenner, and Cynthia Erivo started on race day. (And, I paid even more attention to the anonymous cool-girls’ sweaters and winter coats populating the private ski lodge bar.) Some guests tapped their stylists for a vintage racing jacket; others channeled the energy of a wild ride to the finish line with leather-on-leather sets and checkered bags mimicking the racetrack’s flag. Designer bags perched on every arm I walked by—and don’t even get me started on the diamonds frosting Formula 1 WAGs’ looks.
