Venus Williams’s outfit and tennis fashion in New York Times

Venus tennis outfit at Roland Garros

Venus Williams’s outfit draws a lot of attention at this year’s French Open. One headline cracked me up: Venus Williams (and her outfit) advance. The lacy, see-through black dress that she designed has also made it to The New York Times.  The paper also runs a slide show called Tennis Fashion: Oxymoron where they showcase several of controversial outfits worn by tennis stars throughout the sport’s history, including Maria Sharapova’s tuxido-inspired get-up.

    Venus used to be quite classy in her choice of on court attire. Maybe she has been taking tips from Serena who never was.
