Since being banned from wearing her Nike catsuit at the French Open, everyone was anticipating what Serena Williams would wear for the U.S. Open. So far, the tennis champ hasn’t disappointed, stepping onto the court in two tutu’s by Louis Vuitton Home’s creative director, Virgil Abloh.
Wednesday evening, at Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York, Williams defeated German pro Carina Witthöft in the second round while sporting a lavender Off-White x Nike outfit complete with matching sneakers.

Just like her first outfit from Abloh, which was black, the tutu featured a one-sleeve silhouette and a playful tulle tutu-like skirt. Williams impressed fans as she channeled a ballerina, twirling for the crowd after winning the round.
