    Maria Sharapova dazzles at New York’s fashion week (photos)

    Maria Sharapova is in New York this week for the city's biannual fashion week. The second-ranked Sharapova dazzled at multiple fashion shows, posing for pictures for the paparazzi, hobnobbing with celebrities and, most importantly, gave me a chance to use the word "hobnobbing."

    Sharapova didn't walk the runway, but was front and center at the Vera Wang show, sitting next to Vogue editor Anna Wintour (above). If Wintour can't be with her favorite tennis player, Roger Federer, the glamourous Sharapova is the next best thing. (As a bonus, they have the same taste in jackets.)

    For an event that prides itself on exclusivity, there sure are a lot of fashion weeks. New York, London, Milan and Paris have two per year, one in the spring (for the fall collections) and one in the fall (for the spring collections). That means it's fashion week somewhere in eight of the 52 weeks of the year. That's two months and more than 15 percent of all weeks! Imagine if "Shark Week" tried the same tact.

      So Chris Chase still has a job?
    • ken  •  3 months ago
      Next time Chris, just post the pictures. You're wasting space writing anything (I didn't read it anyways).
      • Denis 3 months ago
        I think Chris Chase learned how to write an article .... more photos and less writing
      • Sarah 3 months ago
        I think Chris Chase needs to check his grammer before posting on yahoo. Check out the first 4 words.... is is.... Correction is IN!

        I know exactly what you mean...I have often wondered why Women do that??? They flirt with you when you're with someone. I don't get it, but then again, I'm a guy.
      • fargin 3 months ago
        Because they are evil. . . pure evil.
    • dude  •  Los Angeles, California  •  3 months ago
      That's not Anna Wintour - it's really Andy Worhal in a wig....No #$%$ and you thought he was Dead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    • Frederik  •  New York, New York  •  3 months ago
      There was talk of her being a Bond girl in an upcoming movie. I think she would be perfect, but then again there are lots of women who would be perfect for that role.
    • michael  •  Baltimore, Maryland  •  3 months ago
      Sharapova is gorgeous. Some people complain about her grunting when making shots. It doesn't bother me in the least.
    • Micah S  •  Farmington, Michigan  •  3 months ago
      I for one DO NOT support the FIRE CHRIS CHASE group. Who else will give hope to the MENTALLY handicapped kids out there? If Chris Chase can write for yahoo then by all means, they can too.
    • caroline  •  3 months ago
      I don't watch tennis and I didn't know who she was before this article, but she looks classy. Nice to see an athlete or celebrity who is more low key.
    • js  •  Houston, Texas  •  3 months ago
      Her fashion sense is right on the mark, but...this lady would look great in a burlap sack. She does not need to work at keeping up with current trends in the fashion world, that world needs to keep up with her. There was a written part to this photo spread?
    • LanEvo7685  •  Chicago, Illinois  •  3 months ago
      It pains me knowing that I'll never touch a woman as hot as Sharapova.
    • svgasrdabike  •  West Point, Georgia  •  3 months ago
      She is equally annoying as she is tall and good looking. Trying to watch her play at Indian Wells a couple years back people actually walked out. It is like a marathon of listening to the most hideous noises you can muster. She snubbed the kids after the match, did not talk to any fans. Like Arnie in the terminator, I respect the whole game face thing but without fans there is no money,,,,My brief couple hours watching she eliminated quite a few would be fans. Really really annoying person.
    • rapidhouse26  •  San Diego, California  •  3 months ago
      She looks nice when she smiles -- not often we see.
    • Speedo  •  Calgary, Canada  •  3 months ago
      Agree. The editor is a moron for wearing sunglasses indoors.
    • Earth Native  •  3 months ago
      She sure is pretty.
    • paul  •  Atlanta, Georgia  •  3 months ago
      Fashion: I could not think of a more fake, back stabbing, pretentious and rediculous industry. You can see the jealousy oozing from the other women. And most of the stuff looks stupid anyway. I must note that I do think Maria is hot and was happy to look at her photos. She is stunning in purple.
    • Brad  •  Monterey, California  •  3 months ago
      The older Maria get's, the better she look's!!!! I am 6' 2" , so I still look up to her!
    • joe  •  Fresno, California  •  3 months ago
      very nicely dressed...looks like a lady
    • MOBADTHANGOOD  •  West Palm Beach, Florida  •  3 months ago
      MAN I love those long long legs.
