Olympians dazzle on ESPYs red carpet

After spending the last few weeks at Wimbledon (and its strictly-enforced monochromatic dress code) Maria Sharapova was probably excited to wear anything that wasn't white; but, let's face it, she could make a paper bag look good. (Photo by Kevin Mazur/WireImage)

U.S. skier Lindsey Vonn manages to make knit caps and parkas glamorous so it was no surprise that she scorched the red carpet at the ESPYs in a simple but elegant white gown and Daniel Swarovski's gold iguana clutch 'Greta' with a crystal clasp. (Photo by Steve Granitz/WireImage)

Action sports icon Shaun White looks just as comfortable in a suit than his day-to-day competition duds: jeans and a T-shirt or snow pants and a jacket. Though the Flying Tomato is a little less-recognizable with that crop of red hair pulled back, no? (Photo by Jason Merritt/Getty Images)

Jennie Finch is no stranger to the ESPYs red carpet, having first turned heads in 2002 in a revealing black gown that garnered her best-dressed honors. Ten years later the most recognizable face of U.S. softball is just as stunning. (Photo by Steve Granitz/WireImage)

Perhaps best-known for ripping off her jersey following the 1995 Women's World Cup, former U.S. soccer star Brandi Chastain kept her floral print blouse on while making her way down the red carpet at the ESPYs in shorts that appear to be inspired by the thigh-splitting kind she wore in her playing days.
