World-renown tennis icon Serena Williams recently slayed the Vogue World Fashion Show runway at New York Fashion Week (NYFW).

According to Vogue, Serena strutted her stuff at the Vogue World anniversary showcase in NYC on Sept. 12. She wore a custom Balenciaga tank dress with a cape in a silver laminated jersey at the NYFW event. As she walked, a recording of her voice from the legendary NBC interview conducted during her 2000 Wimbledon match played in the background. “I want people to remember me as the girl who changed tennis or just was able to bring something new to the game,” the 23-time Grand Slam champion was heard saying in the recording.

Serena was also accompanied by four ball girls who donned white tennis dresses and rackets as accessories during her catwalk at the Vogue World Fashion Show.

The following day, she shared some intimate behind-the-scenes photos of her prepping for the show before it began.

“@voguemagazine #vogueworld,” she wrote in the post’s caption on Sept. 13.

The trailblazing athlete and entrepreneur followed up her post with another one, showing off a snapshot of her walking down the runway.

“I wanted to tell you about last night in pics. Slide right [right arrow emoji. @vogue @voguemagazine,” she said in its caption.

Serena made an epic exit from the tennis world at the 2022 U.S. Open on Sept. 2. The iconic farewell took place in front of an emotional star-studded crowd at the Arthur Ashe stadium in Flushing, Queens. She previously announced her retirement from tennis in August via a personal essay published in Vogue Magazine.

“I have never liked the word retirement. It doesn’t feel like a modern word to me. I’ve been thinking of this as a transition… It’s the hardest thing that I could ever imagine,” she said in her essay.

Despite walking away from her nearly-30-year groundbreaking career, she’s still been busy in the spotlight. She recently made an appearance on The Jimmy Fallon Tonight Show to promote her new children’s book titled “The Adventures Of Qai Qai.” The book is based on the fictional life of her daughter Olympia Ohanian’s adorable baby doll, Qai Qai.
