PHOTOS: Haute couture at Melbourne Park

It's just three days since the Australian Open kicked-off. Let's check out what the top stars are wearing. Certainly, tennis fashion has travelled a long way from whites to bright colours. Players and the famous brands are experimenting with various shades.

Click NEXT and breeze though the outfits that caught the attention of shutterbugs at the year's first Grand Slam.

Maria Sharapova

The fashionable Maria Sharapova has received much flak for her dressing sense on tennis courts.

This year the pin-up girl began her campaign in a pale blue tunic dress and shorts, against Bethanie Mattek-Sands of the United States. The top works well for the Russian ace’s long torso but the shorts were an unexpected choice.

Over the years, World No 1 Serena Williams seems quite settled with the choice of clothes on court. At Melbourne, in her opening match against Ashleigh Barty of Australia, she played safe with V neck and broad straps and feminine skirt.

The color blocking gives the already fit player even more definition.

The five-time Australian Open champion comes with a lot of variation in colours like pale blue, pink and black.

The Belarusian, despite a slight wobble, surely means business.

Caroline Wozniacki opted for another Stella MacCartney outfit, yet again preferring yellow and white.

Yellow perfectly matches the Australian sun, but the skirt and pattern left a lot to be desired.
