Serena Williams and her adorable four-year daughter Olympia were decked out in matching diamond outfits for the 23-time Grand Slam champion’s blockbuster first-round match at the US Open on Monday.
Her outfit, made by longtime partner Nike, is all-black and covered in diamonds. To mark the importance of the occasion, Nike produced a matching outfit for her daughter Olympia.
The 23-time Grand Slam champion is expected to retire following the US Open and her potential swansong could take place Monday night as she faces Danka Kovinic at Arthur Ashe on the first day of the tournament.
Williams is known for her bold fashion statements on court at Flushing Meadows from the denim mini-skirt as the 2004 US Open to her Nike black catsuit at Roland Garros in 2018.
Designed months ago through insights from Williams, she took to court in an all-black outfit inspired by figure skating competition apparel and incorporating a six-layer skirt, referencing Serena’s six prior Flushing titles, which began in 1999.
The elegant silhouette is designed to allow Williams comfort and freedom of movement, while the bold embellishments will put her firmly in the spotlight – if she wasn’t already on the Arthur Ashe stage.
