Venus Williams has partnered with Ralph Lauren to create some pieces for the brand’s US Open collection. Venus has her own fashion line, EleVen, which worked in partnership with Ralph Lauren. She debuted one of the limited edition dresses at a clinic held in New York where she demonstrated her techniques,  fielded questions, and offered tips. The Legends Clinic was live-streamed on-line. The dress she wore is available for purchase on-line, along with a polo of the same style. 15% of the proceeds of the Venus Williams polo and dress will benefit the Women’s Sports Foundation.

Venus will also be debuting some pieces she designed for the fashion house which she will reveal at the US Open. The look includes a day-time look, as well as a night-time one. Venus is very excited about the partnership, said said, “Ralph Lauren is an iconic design label and it’s a privilege to work with them to produce such a sporty and chic look.”
