Well, lets get to the important matters regarding the WTA tour: fashions.

VENUS and SERENA WILLIAMS have been putting the tennis fashions in high gear the last few years and 2002 should bring about more of the same.

VENUS had a very, um, interesting outfit at the 2001 Oz, SERENA showed that shoes must coordinate with ones outfit and Hingis displayed a way to conserve material by just using one sleeve.

I can't wait to see what the ladies in 2002 will bring fashion wise to the tennis courts.

Good outfits for Monica in 2001

Red and White. @ Japan Open 2001<br /><a href="http://wso.net/monicaseles/newindex/japanopenrdqf.jpg" target="_blank">http://wso.net/monicaseles/newindex/japanopenrdqf.jpg</a>

Black (w/white and green lines). @ US Open 2001<br /><a href="http://wso.net/monicaseles/gallery/2001/selesrd1-3.jpg" target="_blank">http://wso.net/monicaseles/gallery/2001/selesrd1-3.jpg</a>

IMO Monica looks best in Black. I think White is her worst color.

The ugliest outfit (below). Thanks Yonex! This outfit I swear jinxes Monica. She wore it and lost to Jen at OZ, wore it and lost to Daja at the US Open. Wore it after OZ and became injured. Once she stopped wearing it she was winning. Burn that outfit Monica!<br /><a href="http://wso.net/monicaseles/gallery/2001/rd4ausopen2.jpg" target="_blank">http://wso.net/monicaseles/gallery/2001/rd4ausopen2.jpg</a>

I am looking forward to this more than the tennis <img src="eek.gif" border="0"> <img src="eek.gif" border="0"> <img src="tongue.gif" border="0">

I am looking forward to seeing what Venus, Serena, Martina, Justine, Kim, Anna, Jennifer, Monica will all wear. I hope they wear something really different from the last season.

Especially Martina, she needs a change, I want to see her with a new hairdo and more classic outfits like what she wore at Australian Open 99, even though that was Sergio Tacchini.

I would like to see Justine keep her hairstyle and that cap, she looks sooo cute in that. However, I want to see her change outfits, it's getting boring. Maybe try different colours etc...

And of course Venus & Serena, I can't wait to see them in whatever they come out with!!!! <img src="biggrin.gif" border="0">

Will we see a Vee-peat outfit from Venus at the Australian Open? I hope so <img src="wink.gif" border="0">

That 'builders bum' outfit was hidious!

 

[JCAPfan]

Venus was totally embarrassed by wearing that outfit at the OZ Open 2001!! I remember most of the TV commentators were teasing her!!

 

[TeeRexx]

jcap - Teasing? The women were jealous and the men were all quite pleased.<br />VENUS continued to be above petty comments and played good tennis. <img src="tongue.gif" border="0">

ANNA has fired the first fashion salvo with this very cute outfit.<br />---

Totally Embarrassed????

YOU "TOTALLY" EXAGGERATE. She later on stitched most of the opening shut, because I think she got tired of adjusting it all the time. Had NOTHING to do with somebody else's opinion.

The BEAUTIFUL people loved that outfit in it's ORIGINAL state. Mary Pierce, and Patrick Rafter. <img src="graemlins/hearts.gif" border="0" alt="[Hearts]" />

[veryborednow]

Monica_Rules - builders bum lmao!!!!

It looks a bit dodgy to be honest. I's like Kim to wear something slightly more adventurous just once <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

And I'd like Nike to change their clothes. The colours at the US Open , OMG <img src="eek.gif" border="0"> <img src="eek.gif" border="0"> yuk

<size=+2>

</font> That's a HIT for Anna K.

She looks awesome there!!! Good going A.K.!!

Look the truth is everybody can't put that on but Vee looked awesome. Just "Playa Hatin", women commentators. That top was just an excuse to talk about Vee. Let's not talk about that one arm wet suit hingis had the nerve to put on and cappy never ever needs to wear that dress she had on at the Erricson. Did I say never.

 

[Sonja]

I wanta see shorts back on Amelie!

 

[IAM#1]

I agree the women commentators were just mad because they did not have the guts or imagination to wear something like that.. UGH.. Most we always exaggerate.. It was cute.. they are leaders in fashion on the tour.. IMO, people need to fall in line.. Hingis' creation was not a creation but a rebirth of an outfit that Flo-Jo wore in the 1988 Seoul Olympics.. Lindsay would be cute in something skimpy.. and Jen needs to do an ab machine.. so she needs a change.. and Kim's hair is atrocious.

 

[LucasArg]

I think Venus has the better out fit, she is also always very glamorous. Also Serena, expept for the yellow one, the one she used in Toronto this year.

I like some styles also like Rossana de los Rios and Maria Emilia Salerni.

 

[Jordan.]

Martina looked wonderful this year.Venus' and Serena's outfits were cute. <img src="graemlins/drool.gif" border="0" alt="[Drool]" /> Linday's were ok..and Monica's were alittle plain(besides the red one).Same with Henin.Anna's clothes also looked wonderful.

 

[ASV]

Mr. Blackwell (me) of the Tennis World has arrived back from Las Vegas to give his fashion predicions for 2002:

<ul type="square">[*]An American (prob. a Williams) will win a standing ovation as she (prob. Venus) reveals a red, white, and blue outfit in tribute to 9-11[*]Mary Pierce and Anna Kournikova will wear the best fashions[*]Nagyova and Maleeva will look the best in Yonex[*]Monica Seles will get the old Yonex clothes and cling to them[*]Arantxa will get the ugliest four year old outfit possible[*]Conchita will not change[*]Justine will not change[/list]

[email protected] Good predictions! <img src="biggrin.gif" border="0">

 

[moon]

I happened to like Vee's outfit from last year, once she sowed it up.

[email protected] But if anyone wear's red white & blue, it will be Lindsay or Jen. Definitely not V or S, that would be a bit on the cheesy side.

 

[Nina_rus]

who do you think will be Kim's new sponsor?

 

[CC]

For 19? Justine ennah makes herself look too old. That tends to happen when children have had to grow up quickly, but still, I would love to see her change her outfit and give the cap a break.

 

[IAM#1]

I think that all the American players should wear a red,white,and blue outfit similar to the leotards of the 1996 Olympic Gymnastics team each having their own little personal touch to their outfit to make it unique.. that would be really cool.. Venus' and Serena's would be the cutest!!!
