These 8 photos show why Serena Williams has cemented herself in the ranking of worst-dressed celebrities

Professional American tennis player Serena Williams has been noted not only for her sporting achievements but also for her fashion failures. She laughingly recalls that she was among the "worst-dressed stars" and is not ashamed of it.

In a commentary to People, Serena Williams jokes that "at least I made the list." She doesn't consider her past looks to be shameful, but she's not sure she'd wear some of them now either.

"I think fashion is a way to show yourself, to express your individuality, to say who you are and what you are, and sometimes it's the only way the world can see you. So for me, it doesn't matter if it's a best or worst list, it's all cool to some extent," the athlete said.

OBOZ.UA decided to recall the most unsuccessful looks of the star

During the 34th NAACP Awards in 2003, Serena Williams appeared in a very revealing dress that did not emphasize her athletic figure but distorted it. The dull yellow color also did not suit the celebrity.

Fast forward a year to the hip-hop party of tycoon Russell Simmons. The tennis player wore a colorful dress with a strange style. The main problem was the pockets on the skirt, which, combined with the sports star's broad shoulders, made her silhouette look square.

Another example of poorly chosen clothes is Serena Williams' 2005 appearance in Hollywood. Wide jeans and a long tunic that fell loosely to the star's knees were a fashion failure.

Two more years passed, but the athlete was still choosing the wrong outfit for social events. In 2007, her dress not only covered the most delicate parts of her body but also "merged" with Serena Williams because of the wrong color.

Over the years, the tennis player's style began to change, and her looks became more beautiful. However, this process was not without setbacks. In 2010, during the Essence Black Women In Hollywood dinner, she was spotted wearing a straight, short dress with shoulder decor that made the look visually heavier.

In 2015, there was another fashion fiasco: a black dress and sneakers at the Taste of Tennis gala.

It is worth noting that over the years, Serena Williams' outfits have become better and better. She learned to emphasize her figure and choose the right colors that set off her features. It became more difficult to find unsuccessful outfits among the athlete's public appearances. But still, there were some.

For example, a bright and fluffy yellow and pink dress and a glamorous outfit in a blue fur coat.
