Roland Garros 08 fashion
In every grand slam tournament, tennis enthusiasts just don't focus their attention on the matches themselves. We also like to assess the clothing that each tennis player wears, because believe it or not, a great tennis outfit really makes one endearing to the eye. So for Roland Garros 2008, here are a couple of observations I made.
First: Nike. I super loved Sharapova's dress. It was simple, yet elegant. And the color choice was really different compared to her past tournaments, where she often chooses to wear pastel colors like pink, yellow, orange, etc. In this year's French Open, she opted for a navy blue dress with white lining. Really nice. Good job Nike!
Also sporting a blue outfit from Nike was Lucie Safarova, with her collared and sleeved shirt with the skirt. It was okay, but I'm not a big fan of it.
Next: Adidas. For this one, I chose to assess Ana Ivanovic and Maria Kirilenko. Ana's outfit was very similar to what she wore in this year's Australian Open. The only thing that changed was the color, from blue to red-orange. Boring. I'm getting tired of seeing that look on her. Maria Kirilenko's dress was nice, I guess, but something was off. Maybe the color. But she still looked lovely.
For Fila: Kuznetsova and for Reebok: Jankovic. Jankovic's dress was okay, she looked like a woman in it. Kuznetsova, as always, looks like a man. Wahahahaha!
For Yonnex: Elena Demetieva looked terrible on that dress! What's up with the long cycling shorts??? I don't get it. It looked like her dress didn't fit her at all!
And what more perfect opportunity for France to boast Lacoste! The Lacoste outfits were all sporty and stylish. It would have been nice to see Andy Roddick in RG, but sad that he had to skip. Roddick and Lacoste = win.
I really don't care about men's tennis fashion, because it does not interest me at all. Although I have to say that I liked Nadal's ensemble this year. Green, my fave!
French Open Men's Finals later! Nadal vs. Federer. VAMOS NADAL!!! Go for FOUR!:D
