Well Steffi, Jana and Martina N all have threads in their names so I started a thread for Chris Evert.
She wore the headband at Wimbledon and USO as well. Actually she started the headband look at the Berlin tournament and for the rest of 1983.I'd go for the French in 1983. That headband look. Or maybe the era where she wore Burt Reyolds "Babe" necklace.
I thought Chrissie looked terrific with the short perm, 1985 Wimbledon in particular she looked fantastic. Honestly at that time people were mistaking us for twins!I liked the 1983 Olivia Newton John look, as it was the last time she ever resembled the young Chris Evert... which I mean by looking effortlessly attractive and natural with soft flowing, undamaged youthful hair. That Terrible Fall she turned a corner and never was able to find her way back. She got The World’s Ugliest Deep Fried Perm and then the whopper, a Mullet from K-Mart’s after Christmas’83 blue light special isle. It was hideous and the first time I felt embarrassed for her.
Then the next year Chlorox was added to the routine and she became Trailer Parc Patsy who most likely dated her cousin Pat! Poor Chris. I think she had no idea how trashy she looked until Matrix added her name to their SoCal tournament and gave her a makeover in 1992. Suddenly she had soft, healthy looking hair again... and, I remember thinking ‘Oh, there’s Pretty Chris again, it’s about time gurl!’
haha
-laugh of the day this one. Thanks Mark!She got The World’s Ugliest Deep Fried Perm and then the whopper, a Mullet from K-Mart’s after Christmas’83 blue light special isle.
I love how Chrissie was so P.O'D that she called Papa Jimmy (may he rest in peace) up from his duties at Holiday Park to make sure Chrissie's game was in working order so she could really turn the screws on the Bonnstress (as I liked to call her).Oh I bet Pammy! Especially that Bonnie! She was probably green with envy!
If you watch the beginning of the video it’s hilarious listening to Mary Carillo and lilting ASMR Lynda Carter discuss how BonnieSue has been trash talking Our Chrissie - saying she was going to beat her sumpthin’ good!
Of course Chris then trashed her six love, just to show her who was The Queen of Floridian Tennis.
Why didn’t Hana learn from BonnieSue just months later? No one trashes Christine Marie E!
