So here are the two Nike tank dresses Maria "Shriek"apova will be wearing at the Australian Open this month, one of which we previewed earlier (though we thought it looked more grey in the sketch drawings.) This khaki dress is most likely what last year's finalist will be wearing in the day.
For the evening, the tennis fashionista will wear another khaki dress with long center pleating in the front and back, pleating at the hem and a hint of a white slip underneath. Additionally the outfit looks to be made of a softer, more fluid fabric for ease of movement. This dress is clearly the better of the two because of its design and elegance, but we're not so sure about the color overall. We think it's a bit flat and we're not sure if it'll wash the Russian out. But against the new blue plexicushion courts, the dress could work well.
We were lucky enough to get a sneak preview of Maria in the evening dress from our reader Kimmy who forwarded us a Nike ad featuring the former No. 1 in the design.
