*For Venus Williams it was another tennis match and for those watching it was another what the hey-all is she wearing moment.
Yep, Sunday at Roland Garros stadium in Paris, the seven-time Grand Slam champion wowed by wearing a somewhat racy and lacy black overlay that gave the illusion of being see-through with bright red trim on the bodice during her first-round match against Patty Schnyder.
As you can also see, if you don’t look carefully, it gives the impression that she’s not wearing any underwear because it’s blends so well with her skin tone. It definitely puts you in the mind of what she wore during the Australian Open back in January.
Despite the head turning outfit, Venus won with ease, beating Schynyder 6-3, 6-3.
She wore a similar can-can style outfit earlier this year in Miami.
Williams explained that her look was “about illusion,” which, she noted, is “a lot of my motif this year” when it comes to clothes design. She also said she might not wear that particular dress again on court. Then again, perhaps she will. She’s not sure. Either way, Williams comes to a tournament with eight to 10 outfits, just in case the victories keep coming.

First let me say I luv and admire both beautiful Williams Sisters.
Anyway congrats on the win Venus! I guess her strategy was to mess up her opponent’s head with that hotmess of a outfit. Lawdy, lawdy lawdy
Its unattractive, but lace is uncomfortable to begin with…add some stretchy fabric under it, and it seems like it would be a stinky mess.
yup, looking like some sweaty Miss Kitty, from the Long Branch saloon.
It is an unflattering outfit. Venus has pulled this stunt before, she needs to stop she is not feminine enough to pull it off. Both Serena and Venus fail miserably when it comes to fashion, nothing I have seen looks good. I for one would not purchase anything of theirs for fear it would look a hot mess. The William sisters are beasts on the tennis court though. Congrats.
babycakes > > I agree with you 100% on their terrible fashion sense. Fashion is not their forte, and they don’t seem to understand that.
Looks more like something Morris Day would pull out of the glove box…
Sorry, but I’m going to say what I said when she pulled this before. It’s an UGLY ass, and don’t bother replying to me, because it won’t change my opinion.
I think that Grace is essentially unapologetic
