What She Wore: Leah Williamson

Arsenal legend. Lionesses captain. Cultural icon.

Leah Williamson isn’t just one of the most recognisable names in women’s football, she’s one of its defining figures. Nine major trophies with Arsenal, back-to-back European titles as England captain, and honoured with both an OBE and CBE for her impact on and off the pitch. Her CV is elite and so is her wardrobe.

Away from the game, Williamson moves effortlessly between sport and fashion. A long-term Nike athlete and ambassador for Dyson, she’s also aligned with Gucci, Burberry, Calvin Klein, Pepsi and Cadbury – meaning the best pieces tend to find her first.

Recreating the looks? That’s where it gets interesting.

From one-off statement pieces – like the scarf-inspired coat featured below – to seriously expensive essentials, Williamson’s wardrobe sits firmly in premium territory. It’s curated, confident, and just out of reach enough to make you want it more.

We’ve pulled together some of our favourite Williamson fits, alongside where to buy them or the closest you’ll get without a brand deal.

Fair warning: this isn’t a casual scroll. Some prices go as hard as her tackles.


Williamson mixes casual pieces with seriously premium ones, all with ease. The prices might be high, but there are plenty of ways to get the same look without totally emptying your bank balance.
