Serena Williams in action at the US Open
Serena - making a style statement

When it comes to fashion, Serena Williams is sport's catwalk queen.

Serena's lastest style statement came when she sported a denim skirt and knee-high boots at the US Open this week.

Serena's mum has a strange sense of style
Hair-raising - Serena's mum

The trendsetting tennis star is known for her colourful wardrobe.

She's experimented with different hairstyles too, although thankfully she's opted to steer clear of her mum's crimper.

Luckily Serena's sister Venus didn't inherit her mum's strange sense of style either.

Having studied fashion at university Venus is equally renowned for her eye-catching attire.

As for Serena, when she's not being kitted out by her sponsors Nike, she goes for glamour by dolling up in Versace or Dolce & Gabbana.

Suzanne played without pettycoats or corsets

But she's not the only Wimbledon champ who's ever had a love for diamonds and designer gear.

French star Suzanne Lenglen became a style sensation way back in the 1920s with her fur coats and colourful bandeaus.
