Serena doesn't disappoint in cut- out Wimbledon dress

Published Jul 02, 2019

Even though Wimbledon limits some creativity with the traditional all-white rule, everyone is still eager to see what Serena Williams will wear. The 23-time Grand Slam champion didn't disappoint in a cut-out Nike dress, complete with a "broosh".

“I also wanted her to feel like it was something her grandmother could have worn, but of course give it a modern spin and make it just right for Serena," said NikeCourt Global Design Director Abby Swancutt, who picked up inspiration from previous generations.

The 37-year-old walked on Center Court on Tuesday in a long see-through cover up jacket.
