Herzogenaurach, Germany 11th April 2018: adidas by Stella McCartney has today unveiled its latest Barricade collection, set to be worn on court by world class athletes including Caroline Wozniacki and Garbine Muguruza during Roland Garros.
The adidas by Stella McCartney Barricade collection fuses fashion and performance by adapting timeless designs to the high performance needs of elite athletes. Australian Open champion Caroline Wozniacki and Wimbledon Champion Garbine Muguruza will debut the classic black dress on the iconic clay courts of Roland Garros this summer.
Designed for ultimate comfort and optimum performance on the court the adidas by Stella McCartney Barricade dress incorporates laser cuts and inserts along the arm holes and sides, assisting in the player’s breathability throughout the game. Using Climachill technology the fabric allows athletes to perform their best under pressure in the Parisian summer sun. The dress also features a unique scuba-style zipper at the front for an athletic twist, as well as a standout flared skirt.
Also announced in the collection are the adidas by Stella McCartney skirt and tank. Both pieces of apparel use premium fabrics, mesh panels and adidas’ Climachill technology to ensure the material is breathable.
Caroline Wozniacki comments: “My year couldn’t have started better – I’ve won my first Grand Slam and I’ve been training hard to keep up that momentum. I know what it takes to win a Grand Slam and I’m prepared to bring that again to Paris. The adidas by Stella McCartney little black dress is inspired by a timeless design, one I love and feel confident wearing. I look forward to hitting the courts of Roland Garros and bringing my game.”
