Women’s tennis champions redefining fashion on the court
Fashion and women’s tennis have become synonymous over the years. Serena Williams could be seen as the pioneer of this change, bringing unique style to her tennis outfits. Her fits always broke the stereotype of sporty tennis looks, as she opted for more outrageous designs.
Maria Sharapova was another figure who brought class and elegance to her outfits when she stepped on the court. Naomi Osaka further advanced this culture by partnering with her sponsor, Nike, to bring fashion and sport together.
