Serena Williams' Lavender Tutu Is Another Slammin' Hit At The U.S. Open

She's slaying fashion and her opponents -- as usual.

Same fashion statement, same result.

Tennis star Serena Williams again wore a tutu in her second round match at the U.S. Open Wednesday and again dismantled her opponent.

Sporting a Virgil Abloh-designed lavender number this time, she defeated Carina Witthoeft 6-2, 6-2, advancing to a third-round matchup against sister Venus.

Serena Williams, rocking a lavender tutu, is about to smash a forehand in her second-round match.

Serena Williams muscles up on a shot in her straight-set victory Wednesday.

Williams blew away Magda Linette in straight sets in the first round while blowing away fans with her tutu.

Williams’ fashion-forward appearances at the U.S. Open have taken center stage after the French Open announced it was banning her celebrated black catsuit from last spring.

Fans dug the lavender tutu, too.

This lavender tutu is everything girl @serenawilliams! #USOpen

If Serena Williams can nail a break point in a lavender tutu against someone thirteen years her junior in this New York heat, I guess I can put on some underwear in my apartment.
