She's known for her edgy sense of style on and off the tennis court.
But Serena Wlliams was almost unrecognisable when she stepped onto the catwalk during a fashion show in Thailand on Friday wearing a very girly bubblegum silk dress. The froufrou ensemble, which featured a frilled asymmetrical hemline, didn't quite flatter her fit and fabulous figure with its halterneck cut and sweetheart bust line.
Nonetheless, the 32-year-old US Open champion was a powerful force as she modeled for a celebrity fashion show held at the Inter Continental Hua Hin Resort near Bangkok.
Serena's pink creation was enhanced by a large gold necklace, chunky bracelets and heeled ankle boots that made the Grand Slam winner even taller.
Renown for her unique fashion, Serena first hit the headlines for her attire in 2002 when she wore a black lycra catsuit on the court at the US Open, and has since launched her own collections with both Nike and Puma.
Williams's recent victories in both the French and US Opens, as well as becoming the oldest number one in WTA rankings, won her the title of The Associated Press' 2013 Female Athlete of the Year, it was revealed by ESPN this week.
The tennis star - who grew up in Compton, California, with sister Venus - is now in Thailand for the 'Made in Thailand Night With Serena And Victoria,' with fellow player, Victoria Azarenka.
Wearing dresses created from high-quality silk by renowned Thai designer Unawan Tangkarawakun, the on-court rivals put any animosity aside as they hosted the event.
