For most people, the commute from Long Island to New York's Chelsea Piers is an hour-long, hassle-free drive down I-495 West, maybe a little Daft Punk on the radio, some pretzel chips for snacking. One could even do a train-to-subway transfer if necessary. But Anna Wintour is not most people.

There may be a bit of nail art fatigue in the fashion world, but it's alive and well in the UK right now. Women tennis players are flouting the infamously strict all-white rules at Wimbledon this year by sporting nail art and neon nail polish.

Ever since the US Open began Monday, something very funny has been happening over at WWD. The industry newspaper--dedicated to reporting the comings and goings of the fashion and beauty world--has been talking grand slams and sports stats. We've been noticing tennis-related posts popping up on all sorts of fashion-related sites. In the past few days, NY Times has run a piece dissecting female players' hairstyles, WWD has reported on Ryan Harrison's "brat attack", NOWNESS premiered a dramatic, smoke-filled video starring tennis A-listers taking swings, and Vogue has run several tennis-themed features including a profile on the sports' newest stars and a look at Maria Sharapova's fashion cred. Yes, some of these have been legitimately fashion-related, but it's still a whole lot more industry buzz than has been given to other sports (Can you imagine a football-related headline on WWD!?) Let's take a look at the evolution of the fashion industry's love affair with tennis.

Tennis is a very fashionable sport. Some evidence: the Williams sisters, who keep the court colorful wearing anything but tennis whites; Maria Sharapova and her collection for Cole Haan; Bethanie Mattek-Sands and the Alex Noble-designed tennis ball jacket she wore to Wimbledon this week; the British Fashion Council dressed Wimbledon players for an event celebrating the tournament's 125th; Anna Wintour's superfandom (anything for Roger)--and the list could go on. So as Wimbledon draws to a close, Nielsen/E-Poll N-Scores took a poll to rank the top most stylish tennis players. Neilson determined the rankings by polling 1,100 respondents and looking at those players who were described as "stylish" by respondents as well as factoring in something called an "N-Score." Here's the methodology: "Using the combined research expertise of Nielsen and E-Poll Market Research, N-Score is an in-depth look at a sports figure’s overall endorsement potential, factoring in the attributes and demographic measures that align brands with endorsers. N-Score Local provides this information for athletes within their team’s local market as well as nationwide. Players are defined as Hall of Fame (receiving an N-Score of 200+), Superstar (100 to 199), MVP (50 to 99), All Star (30 to 49) and Starter (fewer than 30)." So who got the highest N-Score? It wasn't a Williams sister. In fact, only one Williams sister just barely made the list. See the surprising top 10 list, with pics of each player on the court and on the red carpet:

Vogue Dolls: Andrew Yang, maker of fashion-inspired rag dolls and part of Barneys' very long Fashion's Night Out line up has been commissioned by the retailer to create one of a kind replicas of Vogue editors Anna Wintour and Grace Coddington. The dolls took two weeks to make. “I had to special-order Anna’s wig and cut it myself to get the bob right,” Mr. Yang says. “And Grace’s hair was the right color, but it needed a perm.” Want one? Go to charitybuzz.com on August 31 to bid. All proceeds will go towards the New York AIDS fund. {The Moment} From Muse to Designer: Images from Jessica Stam's latest design gig are out. She designed four pieces for Rachel Roy's diffusion line for Macy's, Rachel by Rachel Roy. There's a cute gingham cardigan but the other three pieces are a belt, a basic pair of black skinnies and a basic black purse. There's nothing bad about them, but we're not quite blown away. {Fashionologie} Wintour vs. Federer: Even those far outside the fashion industry are subjected to Anna Wintour's sartorial influence. An avid tennis fan, Anna has apparently been giving Roger Federer fashion advice. “I kind of ask her sometimes what she thinks,” he said. “I get a very strong second opinion.” {NY Mag}
