Venus Williams Debuts New 'Can-Can' Corset Dress In Miami [Pic in URL]
Chris Chase
Venus Williams took it back to the '90s with the outfit she wore Thursday night at a match in Key Biscayne. The 1890s, that is.
In her opening match at the Sony Ericsson Open, Venus wore a red, spaghetti-strapped corset trimmed with a flounce. It was part can-can, part Valentine's Day. And though it certainly flouts the conventions of tennis fashion, the dress worked: Venus won the match 6-4, 6-3.
Nobody seemed to care too much about that though. The first eight questions at the post-match press conference were about the dress. "The motif is really about sporty sexy, and kind of that whole attitude of bringing that to my game," she said. "I usually don't wear red. This is kind of new for me."

She hasn’t gotten any prettier over the years has she? She did win her match, maybe because her opponent was to weak from laughing to raise her racket.

Not really fair. That’s about the worst picture you could take. Can’t tell, but the tennis dress looks a bit like she is wearing her neice’s nightgown. I think standing still the outfit still fails. I would like to see the sisters in normal tennis clothes.
Both Williams sisters are very athletic and are attractive. That’s all I know about them besides they can play tennis.
(Not a tennis fan.)

That dress - she has got to be kidding.......did she look in a mirror first?
To: StormEye
I would faint dead away if I learned that either one of those girls/women were interested in having a normal, happy sex life with a man. Of course, I could be wrong and it’s not fair to judge people on the basis of their appearance; they just don’t seem like regular girls to me.

I am not sure they are regular people.

No, I went to the Yahoo link and followed the related 100+ Photographs. They are a lot more flattering.
