The Item: Athlete and fashion designer, Serena Williams 90th U.S. Open Match WinCouture Ensemble. Serena fashionably made waves on the court during her match with Magda Linette.
You Asked: I have been so upset ever since I heard about the whole cat suit ban thing. I think it is awful that they still will not just let Serena be. So of course I was curious to see what she might wear. Happy she is winning and her outfit is very cool. Can you please tell me who is the designer of it?
Ask and Tell: Serena Williams 90th U.S. Open Match Win Ensemble
The Verdict: Thank you for your message and we can completely understand your frustration over the black bodysuit. Which actually was designed to help prevent blood clots, a situation that almost killed her after giving birth to her daughter. Nevertheless, Nike and Off White came together in order to create another iconic look for the tennis superstar.
In a collaborative effort, Nike and Off White designed a ballet asymmetrical ballet dress, leather jacket as well as a matching AKA QUEEN tennis bag. That bag is already getting tons of hits alone. Once and if these two brands decide to release it to the public for purchase we are sure it will sell out in record fashion.

We’re all used to mommy Williams breaking and holding records. However, now her daughter is already quickly following suit, at three months no less!

Serena William’s Daughter Olympia Ohanian Youngest Vogue Cover Star Ever!
Daughter Olympia Ohanian Youngest Vogue Cover Star Ever
Can we get a round of applause and three snaps in a “Z” formation for this momentous event? Serena is also just as excited over her new mag cover. Recently, she revealed two reasons why it feels so special. She says,
“When I first saw this Vogue magazine cover it brought tears to my eyes. Although [all] covers are special, but to share this one with my beautiful daughter, Olympia Ohanian also the youngest Vogue cover star, makes it a moment I will never forget. The article is a must read.
The best thing about my Vogue magazine cover was the one before it. The January issue with the beautiful Lupita Nyong’o; two amazing black women back to back is always exciting. Excellence!”
Great reasons coming from a great athlete! Speaking of greatness, want know just how iconic Serena Williams is in the history of tennis and sports? Here’s just a couple stats. At just 17, she won her first Grand Slam title. Moreover, she now holds 23 Grand Slam titles and is looking forward to breaking and setting the record for most titles which would be 25. Moreover, she holds 6 Longest winning streaks, 5 WTA Tour career earnings and oh yeah, four Olympic gold medals.
Nevertheless, even with that much accomplishment Williams is one of the most humble people you will come across. What keeps her so grounded? For Vogue Serena reveals,
“Women. They are so prominent, strong and vital to my life. My mom raised five women (one passed) and three grandchildren. I love this photo because we have a close bond.
This is what keeps me humble. They are not afraid to tell me anything, after all, I’m the youngest of five. I’m so happy Olympia has my mom as her grandma. Of course, she has Alexis’ stepmom as well, and I’m happy she has aunts like my sisters: Venus, Isha, Lyn and Alexis’sisters Amy and Hayley.
All women! Coincidence? I think not. She will fit right in.”

“Check me out on my first Vogue cover. Well my mommy too, my daddy is in the article as well as my grandma and some of my aunties! Mom says to read the article. I can’t wait for my next one maybe one day. My mom and dad always tell me to dream big. But for now I am told I’m the youngest Vogue cover star ever at three months! Love you guys.”

She won’t stop, can’t stop and we absolutely love it all! Serena Williams has conquered the court, the catwalk (as a model and designer) and has even blown away the masses as a major magazine cover girl. Williams has been on numerous covers this year including Vogue back in April as well as when she dropped the proverbial model mic by doing the splits for New Yorker magazine (August 2015). Serena Williams has solidified herself as being a true queen inside and out!
We feel the need to quote Drake here for just a moment… clears throat… “You know it’s beauty when her smile is her best curve.” Serena truly does have one of the most beautiful smiles in the game, but we love her for ALL of her curves too! Besides, her stunning physique it is Serena’s personality and drive that also inspires and influences women the world over.
For their November issue Harper’s Bazaar is celebrating women who are not afraid to be daring. In a very honest interview Serena discusses how she feels confident in her profession because she has been at since the tender age of 3. Moreover, she goes on to say that she believes some people were born to do a certain thing and she has not missed her calling because she was born to be a tennis player. With 21 Grand Slam titles under her belt it is very hard to disagree with those statements. Nevertheless, Williams did admit to one fear in particular stating,
“Every time I go down a red carpet, I get a little nervous. I’ve done it 20,000 times, but you’d be surprised. I always have to take a deep breath before I go out there. Put on a brave, bold pose.”
We would have never even guessed that by the way Williams looks like so relaxed on the red carpet. However, goes to show that all of us are humans and deal with some sort of anxiety, but it is impossible to be strong enough to overcome them. Along those lines Serena mentioned what being daring means to her by saying,
“Daring to me is taking a chance but not doing it blindly. A very calculated chance. Think of amazing women like Sheryl Sandberg and Oprah Winfrey—they’re daring, but they’re not jumping off a building without a parachute, you know? You have to be smart about it. You can’t be afraid to be a pioneer and take a chance and speak up and just be bold.”
Amen to that Serena Williams and may we are continue to trek through life being daring and taking chances for the better. Want to see a Behind the Scenes look at Serena Williams Harper’s Bazaar photoshoot lensed by Douglas Friedman? Keep scrolling…
Fashion Notes: Yes, white after Labor Day is okay ladies. We just love Williams’ white Ralph Lauren jumpsuit paired with sandals by Christian Louboutin.

Cinderella didn’t even look this good on her best night! Serena Williams attended a ball of her very own right after her historic win this past weekend at Wimbledon. The championship dinner affair was held in London, England at the Guild Hall.
The championship dinner is exactly how it sounds, both champs come dressed to impressed as they are crowned in glory. Serena made her entrance in a gorgeous peach toned gown that made her look like she had come right off the pages of a fairy tale. Serena took to social media to thank her fans for their unwavering support and to explain what the moment really meant to her. She wrote on Instagram,
“This does not happen everyday or every year. I am so happy to hold this memorable trophy for the 6th time. #SerenaSlam 2.0 #renasarmy thanks for the love and support.”
One of our favorite moments of the night was when both winners decided to cut a little rug for the cameras. Both Serena Williams and Novak Djokovic busted out some signature moves punctuating the evening with a major high note.
Here is a quick snapshot of Williams and Djokovic with their hard-earned trophies!
