Caroline Wozniacki gets a alteration for the Australian Open


Caroline Wozniacki is receiving a new look for the Australian Open. The world No. 1 will be wearing a new, Stella McCartney-designed ballerina dress at the first Grand Slam of the year, part of an offseason alteration for the 20-year-old Dane.

Ridiculous poses despite, I liked the dress upon first glance. The white and pink are softer and more womanly than the gray armadillo dress that made Wozniacki look like the female Terminator at the U.S. Open.

But then I looked again and saw the ludicrous waistline, which is jacked up Urkel-style and appears to be enthused by the edge of a birthday cake. And then there's the pleating and the blood carroty wrist bands. It's not bad, per se, but it's not exactly gratifying either.

Still, anything is an improvement over this.
