Serena catsuit a ‘last-minute’ decision

Serena Williams says her one-legged catsuit was a “last-minute” addition to her Australian Open wardrobe.

Williams told media the catsuit wasn’t in the original plan for this year’s tournament.

“Yeah, actually, this outfit was last-minute, to be honest,” She said after her 6-3, 6-0 second round win over Nina Stojanovic.

“I just felt like the design that we had before wasn’t as Serena-esque, and so the Nike team went back and created something very Serena-like and didn’t have time to put it in retail.

“So it was definitely more of a last-minute outfit than usual.

“So, yeah. So it’s light. It’s actually, if you look up close, it’s actually breathable and it’s perforated, so it’s actually super light and to a point where I need to make sure I’m wearing underwear. Nude colour, though.”
