Serena Williams went through a lot to achieve her number one world ranking last year, controversy dogging her every move, yet she still held the hearts of her many fans and maintained respect from the rest. Her fashion style, on and off court, could be partly responsible.

This is her latest dress from Nike, the Love Tennis Dress. A beautiful bright gold color, with a white mesh bib and empress-like cut, this is one of the most flattering tennis outfits Serena has worn in many seasons. Speaking of which, Serena's dresses from last year are still available, but in limited sizes.
