For the occasion, Williams opted for a knitted dress in a bright, bold shade of yellow. The sleeveless dress featured a halter and plunging neckline with visible ribbing. While the bodice of the maxidress featured a fitted silhouette, Williams’ skirt flowed freely.
The venerated and decorated athlete accessorized her look with a gold chain necklace, yellow shoes and carried a green tote bag with the clothing company’s signature crocodile logo in shades of green, red and yellow.
Lacoste, the official dresser for tennis stars like Novak Djokovic and Daniil Medvedev, previously collaborated with Williams on her EleVen by Venus brand. The collaboration launched in November 2023, featuring variations of apparel items.
