^What? What's ugly about it?

Maybe this would be a good opportunity to find out what the fellas find attractive in tennis attire. Are some colors better than others? What do guys think about the stuff Maria Sharapova tends to wear. Like this one, which I think is attractive but I would never in a bazillion years consider wearing:

sharapova needs to go home and stop being sponsored. that dress is ugly. its like trying to do so much. i prefer more elegant stuff like the ones on page 1 the black one is ugly too because its like all gaudy and stuff.

I think Sharapova's green dress is interesting, in the way high fashion is interesting on the runway. Just because something looks good on a runway doesn't mean ordinary women will buy it, though.

Why Nike thought many people would actually buy it -- especially since it is so closely associated with Maria and few of us resemble Maria -- is beyond me. Still, I love seeing the pros wear things the rest of us couldn't get away with.

Some of the dresses Maria S wears are a bit too much for me - too weird and confusing. I prefer elegant and simple design - in either pale or flashy colors.

Maria S is slim and tall, yet some of the dresses she wears make her look like an overweight lady.....

But the one on the front page of TW USA right now looks classy on her - yet I suspect her face is photoshopped prettier - she no longer has a face that good looking, so I say she is photoshopped on that photo.

I think the Stella Maccarthy dresses are a bit too messy and confusing. Ana I and to some degree Caroline W looks OK in them, but they don't look great in them.

Just wish there would be more female players at my club, especially females wearing proper stylish outfits - I would play more often, if I had some beatiful female players to look at while playing tennis

I hope you learn a little bit from my post. I'm a guy in my late 30's, and I never get tired of looking at beautiful females in good looking stylish outfits - NEVER !

I love women in short dresses/skirts. I used to play mixed tournies with a very attractive friend of mine and she was always dressed in either a skirt and top or a dress... and when serving and returning serves there were often times I found it hard to concentrate with her hunched over in front of me.

Long legs short skirt.. firm... someone slap me out of my stuper.

I wonder what affect it had on our opponents..???

What is with this giving of "stars?" I have never understood it, and it sounds like something that belongs in a high school somewhere . . .

Do you have any of the Stella McCartney dresses? From a guy's perspective, those seem the best and they seem to be flattering to a wide arrange of body types. Sharapova's dresses you need to basically look like her proportion wise.

Usually I like girls who wear black or white, and am a sucker for the skirt. Not a big fan of the booty shorts, dresses are nice if they fit well, and don't have all kinds of superflous crap hanging off of them (like that Sharapova dress).

I like simple clean lines, no crazy patterns, and THE DAMN CLOTHES HAVE TO FIT. Buy stuff in YOUR SIZE, not what is on sale. If something is on sale, and it doesn't fit you right, leave it on the shelf for the next person. If you don't know what fits you right, bring a friend.

Oh, and there is just something about a girl in Barricades. I can't explain it but it is a magical thing.
