Even after almost 30 years on the WTA Tour, Venus Williams continues to push boundaries of women’s tennis fashion and introduce fearless looks to the court. Playing the first round of Montreal, the 43-year-old complemented her red EleVen outfit with a red lipstick, reinventing the unwritten rule that athletes don’t wear makeup or wear very little natural-looking makeup.
While she lost to fellow American Madison Keys 6-2 7-5 on Monday night at the National Bank Open, the seven-time Grand Slam champion Williams reasserted her position as a tennis fashion icon.
