The US Open is just around the corner. As always, we expect to see Serena Williams strut her stuff in a most unusual tennis outfit. Just as she shocked everyone last year with her knee high boots instead the usual tennis shoes, Serena wills surely bring womens tennis apparel from the dreary tennis courts to the headlines. Women’s tennis apparel were traditionally predictable; a white blouse was worn over a short white skirt. Today what they were on center court are comfortable, cool and so much more stylish.

Women tennis players used to wear t shirts with collars. Today, women’s tennis apparel range from spaghetti strapped, halter top lycras. Women tennis players used to wear skirts that would fly and reveal their underwear. Today, there are skirts that come with shorts and skorts – a combination of a skirt and a short. The outfits also come in as many colors as possible. This is one of the many reasons why tennis is still very popular these days, it has gone from drab to fab.
