The January/February Edition of Harpers Bazaar Australia Maria Sharapova, the tennis prodigy and Tag Heuer ambassador is featured in talk about on and off the court fashion and her range of TAG Heuer sunglasses.
Each tournament is a good deal for the player to earn money not only on his or her victory, but also on advertising famous sport, jewelry as well as fashion accessories and court fashion brands.
The impossibly long-legged 22-year-old, the highest paid female star in sports history ($26 million) Maria Sharapova is not the exception. Russian girl pays a greater attention to the sport dresses she is to play in. That is why Maria is absolutely serious about Australian Open sport wearing this January.
“I pretty much know what I’ll be wearing (on court) and what color, a year in advance because the clothes have to go to retail (at the same time).” She says of the tennis dresses she helps Nike designers create and the match-friendly Tiffany & Co. earring she wears for each Grand Slam tournament.
All Maria Sharapova endorsement deals with the likes of TAG Heuer, Tiffany & Co. and Cole Haan involve her in the design of brands wares. And her models really work, as Maria sincerely believes that the feeling of comfort on the court and knowing that you look good and feel good in what you wear really makes you attack.
“When I wake up in the morning, my first priority is tennis, but the fact that I have the opportunity to create things such as my tennis dresses and TAG Heuer sunglasses is fun and I’m certainly no afraid to fail at it.”
The sunglasses for TAG Heuer (on sale this month) are one of Maria’s most hands-on design projects. “It gave me the opportunity to be creative and work with some really talented people,” she says. “We did two pairs – one is more casual, the kind you could wear every day, the other is a little bit more sophisticated.
We hope that TAG Heuer sunglasses will be as much a success as latest TAG Heuer Ladies Maria Sharapova Diamond Watch WAF141J.
