Fashion’s finest (Zoe Saldana! Olivia Palermo! Coco Rocha!) take to the polo pitch at New York’s Liberty State Park for Veuve Clicquot’s Polo Classic
As the Statue of Liberty looked on, some of fashion’s finest took to the polo pitch at New York’s Liberty State Park, where Veuve Clicquot rang in their fifth annual Polo Classic. From Poppy Delevigne’s floral sundress to Coco Rocha’s silver-embellished blush dress, the star-studded attendees were decked out in full summer wear as they mingled in the marigold yellow VIP tents. On the pitch, Rachel Zoe sported her signature brand of boho chic in a maxi dress and floppy hat as she threw out the ceremonial ball to start the game. This year, the Polo Classic supported Work to Ride, a non-profit organization that aids disadvantaged urban youth by getting them involved with equestrian activities. Polo star Nacho Figueras, who co-hosted the event alongside his wife Delfina Blaquier, actor Clive Owen and the president of Veuve Clicquot U.S., Vanessa Kay, led the polo game. Once it wrapped up, the polo players celebrated by shooting off a Veuve spray (of course) and toasting the day with raised flutes.

Kate keeps it casual while watching the princes play polo (and Lupo was there too!)
View every look Kate Middleton has worn since her engagement »
This weekend Kate cheered on William and Harry at a charity polo match while keeping things casual in a silk shirtdress by UK-based label Libélula. The long sleeve, knee-length look is quickly becoming her signature style, and it seems like Kate’s other must-wear item—sheer tights—are on the way out. Perhaps her choice of shoe inspired the need for bare legs? Kate wore a pair of open-toed Stuart Weitzman wedge espadrilles, which allowed her to walk across the grassy polo fields with ease—and right up to the podium where she gave both princes a kiss after their team won. (Not pictured: many other kisses from Kate and Will’s royal pup Lupo, who also adorably attended the event.)
