to post on their social media: &#8216;The grass dress code, reimagined by Marta.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Within a couple of hours, the <a href=\"https:\/\/talksport.com\/topic\/french-open\/\" rel=\"nofollow

is fully fit for purpose: &#8220;A sophisticated two-piece construction consisting of a bra, vest and skirt system,<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Accented with technical lace detailing that elevates the look while maintaining the functionality required at the highest levels of the sport.<\/p>\n<p>Kostyuk added: &#8220;To have a dress named after me, that was envisioned by me, feels absolutely surreal.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Working with the Wilson team, especially Joelle, has been nothing short of amazing- I am able to help create looks that not only look beautiful, but are meant to perform on-court.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Any concern that the strict dress code was broken, was squashed when she originally wore it in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>At the London-based tournament, there is a nine-point dress code ruling that only allows white clothing and does not include shades of cream.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"marta-kostyuk\" height=\"611\" width=\"960\" data-credit=\"AFP\"
