Found It! Venus Williams’s Floral EleVen US Open Look

Sep 4, 2012 @ 5:40 pm

Venus Williams and sister Serena may have lost their doubles match at the US Open Tennis Championships yesterday, but when it comes to court style, they win hands-down. Venus recently wore this cute tank-skirt combination during competition, and you can snag it, too! The rose-print tank is part of a limited-edition capsule collection for her sportswear line, EleVen by Venus. (She’ll debut her full spring/summer collection during New York Fashion Week, which begins Thursday.) You can grab the top for $51 at tennis-warehouse.com, as well as the matching skirt Venus wore in melon, which is $52 and available here. A cool bonus: on the inside hem of the top is a screen-printed inspirational message from Venus: In her handwriting, it says, “Oh & oh, beat ‘em!” You don’t even have to be a tennis player to love that.
