    Serena Williams Stuns at Sacai Catwalk Show

    Serena Williams looked effortlessly chic while leading stars at the Sacai fashion show on Sunday during Paris Fashion Week. 

    The tennis star, 42, sported a black pinstripe buttoned maxi dress and billowing attached coat, while finishing off with conventional patent leather loafers.

    The sportsperson kept her golden tresses in a side low ponytail as she beamed graciously ahead of the star-studded runaway show.

    She added a cherry lipstick, and was seen enjoying the catwalk front-row sitting next to Pharell Williams.

    The American singer, 51, looked typically fashionable in a print short-sleeve shirt, flared denim and a Louis Vuitton trunk bag.

    Designer and film producer Jessie Andrews displayed her very lithe physique in a black halter tank and low-rise matching trousers.

    The Wyn Beauty founder traveled to the City of Lights after she enjoyed Fashion Week in Milan with her sister Venus, 44.

    Serena will share the highs and lows of her illustrious career in the upcoming docuseries In The Arena: Serena Williams.

    The eight-part series will explore ‘the pivotal moments in Serena’s life on and off the court,’ according to the TriBeCa Film Festival announcement prior to the show’s premiere in New York June 13.

    The program will illustrate ‘the series of steps that when reflected upon, show the incredible distance traveled over the course of her career,’

    ‘I think it’s a good opportunity for people to see the other side,’ she told Style Culture TV.

    ‘I think most people see the grand slam wins and the holding up the trophy,’ she explained. ‘I want people to take away the appreciation of what happened before the trophy went up, and all the work and all the real memories of what was going on behind the scenes’ she explained.

    ‘I’ve had so many amazing memories,’ the Olympic gold medal winner stated.

    ‘That’s why Serena in the arena is eight episodes, because we couldn’t narrow it down to one memory.’

    The tennis great offered a small spoiler alert, revealing episode four of the show is ‘very emotional. It talks a lot about my comeback and a lot of things that I was going through behind the scenes.’

    The tennis superstar retired from the court in September 2022, almost a year before giving birth to her daughter Adira, who was born in August 2023. She and her husband, Alexis Ohanian, 41,  are also parents to Alexis Olympia, six. 

    In The Arena: Serena Williams debuts on ESPN+ July 10.
