Jessica Pegula and Madison Keys turned heads at the 2025 WTA Finals photoshoot, but they have their fellow American star Coco Gauff to thank for their show-stopping looks. The two players revealed that Gauff played a surprising off-court role, serving as their personal stylist for the event’s glamorous shoot, which featured the elite singles field of the season-ending championship.

The photoshoot brought these elite athletes together ahead of the competition, highlighting their sense of style and camaraderie. When the WTA’s official social media account posted the images of the shoot, fans couldn’t help but admire the athletes’ fashion choices.
Gauff herself revealed in the comment section that she did her own hair and makeup for the event, opting for a Miu Miu long satin dress in custom indigo, featuring a draped plunge back and delicate bow detailing.
Pegula, meanwhile, looked radiant in an off-the-shoulder Talbot Runhof gown and later shared on her Instagram Stories that she had been styled by none other than Gauff and Keys. She also posted a selfie with a caption, “Makeup ateee.”
Rounding out the trio, 2025 Australian Open champion Keys dazzled in a green Lela Rose dress and admitted during an interview with Tennis Channel that Gauff had played a key role in helping her and Pegula finalize their wardrobe.
“Compliment for Coco. I love her honesty. She helped Jess and I pick our outfits for the shoot the other night and she was not afraid to hold back. And we need that. We appreciate it,” Keys said with a smile.
