Roger Federer is making the most of his recent retirement from tennis. The 41-year-old, who has made great strides in the fashion industry over the years, was recently captured at one of fashion’s biggest events – Paris Fashion Week.

At the prestigious event, Federer was accompanied by his wike Mirka as well as Anna Wintour, editor-in-chief of Vogue and his long-time supporter and friend. They attended the Dior Haute Couture fashion show at Musee Rodin and sat with Bernard Arnault, founder and CEO of LVMH.

At Chanel’s runway show at the Grand Palais Ephemere, Federer donned an achromatic three-piece suit, while Mirka complemented him in neutral shades.

The former World No. 1 was also captured at The Yellow Pieces Gala musical charity event, which is held to raise funds for the Hospital Foundation and chaired by France's first lady Brigitte Macron. At the event, Federer was pictured with global musical icon Lalisa 'Lisa' Manobal, a member of the South Korean girl group Blackpink.
