top-ranked player in women´s tennis, will wear

Tiffany designer Elsa Peretti´s Wave earrings

custom French Open tennis dress. The "Paris

that reflects her dynamic sense of style. Designed in collaboration with

Ms. Sharapova, the performance Dri-Fit dress is dark obsidian blue with

contrasting chalk white satin ribbons and double layered pleated skirt.

The elegant, ultra-light creation is finished with a luminous Tiffany

pearl button closure that fastens at the back of the dress. "Maria Sharapova is a longtime friend of

Tiffany and a champion on and off the court," said Linda Buckley, vice president, worldwide public relations. "It

gives us great pleasure to accent her on-court look with earrings that

epitomize both the quality of her championship play and Tiffany´s

reputation for design excellence." The partnership between Ms. Sharapova and Tiffany & Co. will extend for

the next two years and will cover the four Grand Slam Tennis events: The

French Open, Wimbledon, and the US and Australian Open. During each

event, Ms. Sharapova will wear Tiffany earrings that will be sold at

Tiffany & Co. stores around the world. The group of earrings, Tiffany

for Maria Sharapova, will give customers and fans alike easy access

to the jewelry worn by the three-time Grand Slam winner. Tiffany for Maria Sharapova reflects the movement and elegance of

line that characterize the Tiffany jewelry Ms. Sharapova has previously

worn on the court, as well as her natural style and grace. Elsa Peretti´s

Wave earrings that she the will wear in the French Open capture these

qualities, along with a sculptural, organic beauty that creates volume

and striking allure without adding weight. "I am very excited about Tiffany for Maria
