Tennis skirts and sportswear-infused silhouettes have been ubiquitous on the Paris catwalk for several seasons. So who better to comment on the mania than Maria Sharapova?
“I’ve been to a few shows. I enjoy following fashion, and I’ve noticed this trend. Chanel has a lot of looks going down the runway with the sports influence. I love it,” she said, decked out in Chanel with a floppy hat at the French label’s show on Tuesday.
“At Stella [McCartney] you saw it again — there’s so much inspiration to take away, with the pleating and all the fine details that they incorporate into tennis dresses as well,” she added.
The 28-year-old insisted she didn’t feel pressure to look good in the public eye, preferring to “look like myself and be comfortable.”
“Fashion is about being able to express your individuality. There is no right or wrong,” she said.
