Serena Williams shares her love for fashion
In an interview, Serena Williams commented on her new fashion line connection. The American player is working hard on the tennis court preparing for the clay-court season that she will start in Rome next month prior to the French Open. "I’ve always loved fashion", admitted Serena. "I remember when I was a kid, my mom used to make all our outfits. Back then, they had Vogue patterns. I would always see her pinning them and making all our clothes. And she taught us how to sew early on. So, I used to sew clothes for my dolls out of old socks and I would cut them up and make little outfits out of them. Eventually after high school — somewhere in between winning Wimbledon and several US Opens — I went to art school. I excelled at pattern making. I think it’s because I love mathematics and I like the technical part.”
"I remember one time playing a tournament and, after I won, I put on a skirt to take a picture and my skirt broke. Everyone in the locker room was like, ‘Oh, the seamstress left.’ And I’m like, ‘Well, did she leave her stuff?’ And they were like, ‘Yeah,’ so I said, ‘I’ll get it.’
Serena only played one tournament from the beginning to the end this year, the Australian Open.
