Serena Williams Is the G.O.A.T. of the 2023 CFDA Awards Red Carpet as She Receives Fashion Icon Award
The tennis superstar became the first athlete to win the award, following previous winners like Naomi Campbell, Zendaya and Beyoncé
Multihyphenate Serena Williams just added another hyphen.
Williams is known as the G.O.A.T., a record-shattering athlete, entrepreneur, philanthropist, designer — and now, a fashion icon, thanks to the Council of Fashion Designers of America.
The tennis star received the 2023 CFDA Fashion Awards fashion icon honor Nov. 6, making her the first athlete to win the award.
And she hit the red carpet in a look worthy of her icon status.
Williams made her mark at the American Museum of Natural History in a bespoke black sequin dress, designed by CFDA Chairman Thom Browne. The design featured statement black sleeves and a train. She added even more sparkle via her David Yurman jewelry including the brand’s “Fleur de Mer” pavé diamond and pearl and pavé cable drop earrings.
