Serena Williams hits back at catsuit criticism by switching to designer tutu
There is no doubt that Serena Williams is a champion and has a knack for both tennis and fashion. However, it seems as though the sportswoman's freedom was being interfered with when French Open president Bernard Giudicelli confirmed that a dress code had been introduced for the 2019 tournament.
The black catsuit outfit which Serena had sported for this year's tournament is no longer going to be accepted. The direct target on Serena was disguised very well as the rule applies to everyone competing in the tournament. "One must respect the game and the place," Giudicelli attempted to explain. In response to this strange rule, Williams chose to compete in the US Open and sported a one-shoulder black Virgil Abloh bodysuit and a flouncy tutu. She also sported a pair of fishnet stockings.
