Serena Williams opted for a monochrome ensemble consisting of pants, a sheer top and a suit jacket in a hue of pale pink. A matching blush-colored belt was on display front and center, while she accessorized with oversized sunglasses and a maroon leather purse emblazoned with the double G of the Gucci logo.

For her footwear, the athlete donned a pair of transparent sandals with a beige base that complemented her pink suit; the shoes included a clear strap that twisted across the foot. Her sandals were often obscured by her long pleated pants while she stood at the event.

The Williams family was well coordinated for the fashion show; the elder sister, Venus, wore a long maroon leather trench coat that picked up Serena’s purse. Her statement jacket covered a white pencil skirt and matching button-down shirt. She accessorized with a small black purse that included the signature Gucci colors in the strap.

To round out the outfit, Venus Williams wore a pair of Gucci Signora slingback pumps with gold detailing along the back of the ankle strap. The patent leather shoes coordinated with her jacket and offered her an extra 4.1 inches.

Serena Williams is a noted fan of light pink lately — she attended the Tribeca premiere of her docuseries “In the Arena: Serena Williams” wearing peep-toe Dolce and Gabbana platforms in a shade of baby pink to match her dress from the same brand. Venus, meanwhile, loves a sparkling flat in addition to an athletic sneaker. She wore silver sandals to support the launch of Serena’s Wyn Beauty brand — while her sister opted for white Nike sneakers.
