Serving Up Style: Venus Williams Stuns in Le Silla at ‘Challengers’ Premiere
The court was the red carpet last night as tennis icon Venus Williams brought her signature flair to the premiere of “Challengers” in Los Angeles. Hitting a fashion ace, the 43-year-old stunned in a avant-garde gray mini dress that celebrated her toned physique.
The asymmetric number by an unknown designer featured ruched detailing that hugged Williams’ curves, cinching at the waist before flaring out into a sculptural boat-neck top. The textural fabric almost seemed woven with words, lending the piece a modern, artistic edge.
Williams kept the look sleek and minimalist, allowing the architectural dress to take center stage. Her beauty look was equally streamlined but striking – a slicked back ponytail, winged black liner, and a dewy glow. Delicate jewelry like a dainty necklace and small hoops provided the perfect understated accents.
But the grand slam came via Williams’ footwear choice – strappy black sandals by Le Silla that beautifully framed her toned legs. The Olympian has been devoted to the elevated sandal this spring, having sported metallic block heels at Serena Williams‘ recent WYN Beauty launch in NYC.
The Le Silla pair featured crisscrossing straps at the toe box and a slender ankle wrap, all supported by a svelte 3-inch heel. Leg lengthening while still remaining walkable, they were the ideal partner to Williams’ mini hemline.
Whether ruling the court or the red carpet, she remains devoted to raising the style stakes. The decorated athlete paired the look with strappy black heels and delicate jewelry, including a string necklace and small hoop earrings.
Of course, this was hardly Williams’ first major premiere serving up audacious glamour. She is a constant at Hollywood’s biggest nights, alongside her superstar sister Serena. Most recently, she stunned in a shimmering metallic gown at the Oscars in March.
When not attending glitzy affairs, Williams has been focused on her blossoming business ventures off the court. Her activewear line EleVen by Venus Williams just launched new styles, while her wellness brand Happy Viking showcases her passion for a plant-based lifestyle.
But clearly, the tennis champion will always make time to bring the fashion drama – as she did last night in that sleek Le Silla moment. With “Challengers” garnering strong reviews ahead of its April 28th release, we’re sure Williams will be returning to the step-and-repeat again soon in more iconic looks.
