Serena Williams responds to catsuit ban at French Open at Australian Open: Tight bodysuit and fishnet stockings
Beside being one of the all time greats in tennis, Serena Williams has played her part in revolutionalizing the attire worn by female players on court, for which she has received praise and crtitique in equal measures. Williams' choice of outfit was the center of controversy last year at the French Open when the tournament banned her catsuit.
But that has not seemed to deter Williams, and on Tuesday at the Australian Open, she seemed to have quite a message to send to her critics with her sartorial choice during her first round match at the Grand Slam tournament.
The tennis star opted to wear a custom-made, green lycra jumpsuit by Nike along with a pair of fishnet stockings. And as before, the mother-of-one's outfit garnered mixed reactions, with some loving the look while others finding it 'distasteful'.
