Summary
- Vintage Dior newspaper dress seen at the Spanish Grand Prix.
- Dress originally designed by John Galliano in 2000.
- Jenna Ortega also recently wore a similar iconic dress.
The iconic Christian Dior newspaper dress, famously worn by Carrie Bradshaw in "Sex and the City," has been revitalized on the sidelines of the Spanish Grand Prix. This 26-year-old vintage design, created by John Galliano and first revealed in 2000, was recently showcased by influencer Alexandra Leclerc at an event in Madrid.
Leclerc, who is married to F1 driver Charles Leclerc and is expecting their first child, donned the mini-dress paired with a matching purse, heels, and sunglasses. This reappearance follows a recent resurrection of the dress by Jenna Ortega, who wore a similar design to a premiere in 2025. The dress itself has a notable history, having debuted in a collection inspired by displaced people and a 1920s trend where the wealthy dressed as the homeless for parties.
As the F1 season continues, Alexandra Leclerc is expected to continue making fashion statements. Earlier in September 2026, she was seen at the Italian Grand Prix in Monza wearing a stylish polka-dot dress and later a black halter dress. Her influence in fashion has also led to collaborations, including with Hailey Bieber's beauty line, Rhode.
