Tennis Court to Runway: Serena Williams Hits Fashion Week

Associated Press

   NEW YORK - Talk about a quick recovery. Only three days after her
   shocking loss in the U.S. Open final, Serena Williams went from the
   court to the runway to present the latest collection of her fashion
   label, S by Serena.

   And she brought her baby daughter along for the ride: As she made her
   traditional post-show bow, wearing a snakeskin-style miniskirt that she
   designed, she was carrying little Olympia, 2, in her arms.
   As befitting a tennis legend, Williams had some prominent fans in
   attendance, notably Kim Kardashian, TV host Gayle King, and Vogue
   editor Anna Wintour.

   Also attending: #MeToo movement founder Tarana Burke, who said Williams
   was "strong in so many ways, not just physically. I'll always support
   her."
   The runway show in midtown Manhattan began with a lush brown
   trench-style coat, followed by a suit in the same fabric with an
   asymmetrical wrap skirt. Pants and slouchy sweaters followed, then a
   series of dresses, tops and coats in an animal-style print.
