Just days after French Tennis Federation President Bernard Giudicelli said her black catsuit with clot-preventing compression tights 'will no longer be accepted,' Williams chose a one-armed black tutu-style dress by Off-White's Virgil Abloh to take on Magda Linette at the Open.
Perhaps her sparkly shoes emblazoned with her name and 'queen' also helped.
On Wednesday night, playing against Carina Witthoeft, Williams was in another tutu dress that's part of her new collaboration with Nike and Abloh, who is also men's artistic director for Louis Vuitton. Anna Wintour looked pleased as she watched Williams beat Witthoeft.
She won again, as did her sister Venus, setting up a faceoff between the Williams sisters in the third round on Friday.
