Sweaty jock straps and sports bras? Check 'em by the door! These athletes look just as good in or out of the locker room.
That's right. Not only have these professional players been blessed by the genetic lottery pool, they're also being singled out for their singular sense of style.
From David Beckham and Tom Brady to Dwayne Wade and Venus Williams, we're shining a spotlight on the athlebrities who design their own fashion lines, shmooze with the catwalk crowd and are just as comfortable on the red carpet as they are gearing up to play sports.
David Beckham
He's married to a designer, segues easily between football games and fashion shows and has stripped down to his stylish skivvies for Armani. Becks may certainly qualify as one of the best dressed sports stars out there but he's not the only one.
Scroll through to see which other athlebrities look just as good (if not better!) out of their sports uniforms...
Serena Williams
Whether she's rocking knee-length black leather boots on the tennis court, designing a line of jewelry for HSN or strutting her stuff on Hollywood's red carpet circuit—Serena is the very definition of a Renaissance fashion woman!
Alex Rodriguez
While the arm-candy probably has a lot to do with it (first Madonna, then Kate Hudson and now Cameron Diaz) the Yankee slugger is always looking sharp.
Charlotte Casiraghi
How's this for fashion pedigree: Charlotte's the official equestrian ambassador for Gucci (they custom make all her competition outfits) and the granddaughter of the late Grace Kelly, which also means she's fourth in line to the Monaco throne. Nice life!
Chris Paul
GQ thought enough of the New Orleans Hornets point guard to feature him in a fashion shoot and Sports Illustrated ranked him among the top five most stylish NBA stars off the court. Works for us.
Maria Sharapova
The Russian tennis player seems to love fashion almost as much as her sports career, chasing grand slam titles while signing on to simultaneously collaborate on a sportswear line with Cole Haan.
Dwayne Wade
He's an All-Star MVP but with a nickname like Flash it's no wonder the Miami Heat guard also takes honors off the court, topping the list of Sports Illustrated's most stylish NBA players.
Sean Avery
Michelle Kwan
She's won more medals than any other American figure skater but seems equally comfortable off the ice, whether wearing Herve Leger to a White House State Dinner or paling around with designer Vera Wang.
Cristiano Ronaldo
He's waxed, toned and taned to physical perfection but when not ripping off his clothes to show off his stunning physique the Real Madrid soccer stud likes to flaunt his showy fashion sense.
Venus Williams
There's no questioning this tennis pro's passion for fashion. Venus jet setted from the 2011 Australian Open—where she shocked fans with a yellow crisscross dress she described as inspired by Alice in Wonderland—to New York where she was a fixture at Fall 2011 Fashion Week.
Tom Brady
The Patriots quarterback is fly, fashionable and married to the world's most famous supermodel. It's America's answer to the Beckhams.
