PHOTO: Serena Williams Goes For Gold At Wimbledon Winners’ Ball
Wimbledon is a sporty event, but it’s also a fashion-y event where one can spot Anna Wintour in the stands and watch athletes run around in lots of expensive things. So naturally we must discuss five-time title winner Serena Williams‘ championship dress.
Amar’e Stoudemire’s Vogue Issue Is Here And It’s Hilarious
We’ve been waiting with bated breath for Knicks player Amar’e Stoudemire’s long-rumored Vogue feature and now it’s finally here. And in what can only be described as the cherry on top of our sports beat cake, the piece was written by european editor at large Hamish Bowles — who you might remember from last summer’s essay on surfing with Blake Lively and who, in this instance, submits himself to a training session and a game of one-on-one basketball with the 6 foot, eight inch phenom.

Amar’e Stoudemire To Design Women’s Line For Rachel Roy
It looks like New York Knicks power forward Amar’e Stoudemire could soon have something in common with Karl Lagerfeld: a clothing line at Macy’s. Page Six reports the 6’10″ basketball star is teaming up with Rachel Roy to produce a line for her Macy’s contemporary label Rachel Rachel Roy.
PICS: Wizards Player Gilbert Arenas Wore D&G On The Court
Our sneaker obsession is no secret. And while our taste generally favors form over function, we can appreciate some sporty kicks. As such, we were tickled to see Washington Wizards guard Gilbert Arenas rocking some stylish sneaks at last night’s game against the Lakers.
Natalia Vodianova Helped Russia Secure Its World Cup Bid
We don’t follow sports quite as closely as our friends over at Sportsgrid, but this item caught our eye: Natalia Vodianova helped Russia secure its bid to host the 2018 World Cup. And that’s only after she became the ambassador for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.
Dolce & Gabbana Adds Boxing Team To Their Sports Roster
Okay, this whole “the Dolce boys love sports” thing has reached a new level. At first they were giving all their love to soccer which makes since because they’re European. But they just announced that they’re sponsoring a boxing team. A boxing team! Just get Stefano and Domenico their own ESPN channel already.
Will Brett Favre Keep His Wrangler Endorsement?
Celebrity endorsements are tricky things. On one hand, they can help a brand bring in big bucks. On the other hand, celebs can be a liability. People aren’t perfect, and even famous people can make some pretty big mistakes. Brett Favre is the latest celebrity to hit a bit of a rough patch, with all sorts of inappropriate allegations (and penis pictures!) being thrown around. Will Wrangler drop his endorsement deal?
Dolce & Gabbana Teams Up With Soccer Star Lionel Messi
Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana love them some soccer football players. First they launched a World Cup underwear campaign, then they joined forces with the Chelsea Football Club and now they’ve tapped FC Barcelona‘s Lionel Messi to wear D&G exclusively to all official events.
PHOTOS: Pink Is Very Flattering On Football Players
Last night we were forced delighted to watch some football. What an appropriate autumn Sunday activity!

We’ve always had an appreciation for well-designed uniforms, but last night the NFL went pink. And we loved it.
Hipsters Don Basketball Jerseys, Merit Times Write-up
The New York Times‘ Sunday Styles section is a place to read interesting perspectives on the fashion world and to look at Bill Cunningham‘s latest pics.

PHOTOS: Stella’s Fall Collection For Adidas Is Awesome
Leave it to British designer Stella McCartney to stir up some magic in both the Adidas brand and the fashion world. The result: working out never looked so good.
THE ZOE REPORT: Surf the Chanel
Summer has found me in a blissful paradise at a vacation home in Malibu and I could not be more thankful for the downtime. I am loving every minute that I get to spend quality moments with Rodger, soak up the sun and watch the seasoned surfers hit the tide under a cloudless sky…heaven. In fact, the only thing that could make the whole scenario more picturesque is if all of the surfers were in-hand with a Chanel Surfboard. Talk about dream scenario.
Why Athletes Should Not Design Their Own Clothing
Venus Williams looked pretty good on the grass at Wimbledon yesterday. But it’s our bet that she would have looked better if she’d let someone else design her dress.
Designers Spend $7.4M To Dress Wimbledon Players
Ah, Wimbledon. Fresh-cut grass. Crisp white clothing. Expensive product placement. What more could you ask for on an English summer’s day? Apparently, a lot more. Because in England, designers and fashion houses are spending millions of British Pounds Sterling — not American dollars — to dress the tournament’s female players while they tear up the sod.
D&G Enlists Soccer Players For Latest Underwear Ad
Save for the Green Jacket, and the occasional football-shaped handbag, the fashion folks and the jocks typically stick to their own sides of the cafeteria.
