Fashion is making waves on runways in Milan and tennis courts at Wimbledon. Pin-up tennis girl Maria Sharapova made paparazzi snapping as she made her appearance at the Grand Slam wearing tuxedo bib top shorts instead of that usual skirt. Sharapova walked over the court in a cream colored tuxedo style jacket and long trousers.
Her fashion ploy followed Monday's matches of American Serena Williams and Switzerland's Roger Federer, who doffed his 2 year old cream blazer in favor of a pale herringbone cardigan by Nike. "We've been talking about what we could do," said Federer. "I thought 2 jackets were enough; let's move on to something a little bit different."
Serena Williams turned up wearing a white trench coat over her tennis dress. "It is definitely not athletic attire," she said. "But it is ladylike and I am very ladylike. It goes perfectly with my personality and everything else."

This September, all Students of Springfield will be wearing uniforms while many aren't happy about the new policy, but many students are slowly starting to like the idea, thanks to a fashion show! Staff and students at the High School of Science and Technology put on a fashion show to give students a peep of the different styles they get to choose from.
"I think it's important to have it because many of the students don't understand the policy and many of them didn't want to do it. It's important to understand what this policy is about and how will it affect them," says teacher, Gladys Franco. From shorts to pants, long sleeve shirts, to polo's, students were shown ways to dress up their uniforms and make it their own, all at a small price!
"You can wear shoes, have your hair and makeup the way you want it and it's cheap" says teacher Lissa Asta-Ferrero. So far students are starting to get excited about the change. "It was exciting, the uniforms are better than I thought, they were more fashionable" says Matthew Oquendo, a student.
