But look at Vee. Always classy, elegant and a trendsetter. I can't see Pova's enough to make a decision and Serena is potentially a hot mess.

Not a fan of Serena's get up this year. The jumper is probably OK, but that over the top covering, looks like she slayed a few too many flamingos at the zoo so she could go to the MET party. She's rocked it in the past, but this year, not so much.

My hubby said it looked like 'shag carpet from the 70s' lol!

^Venus wins, with Fernandez coming in second.

Naomi looks like she lost a dare, and Sharapova must have decided to go at the last minute and only had Christmas wrapping paper at hand.

I thought Leylah and Emma's outfits were 'age appropriate'....from what I read Emma sat on the Chanel table for the night,she is in a Chanel outfit
More I look at Osaka the more 'scary' she looks....like what is going on with 'the make up'?
Love the colour that Sloane is wearing suits her to a tee.
Agree Venus wins hands down she looked like a Godess on the Red Carpet

Why does Pova always dress like an old lady? Her outfits are never age appropriate. I agree, Vee and Babycakes are first w/ Lil Bit 2nd. Scone 3rd and Emma 4th.

Definitely Serena and Naomi didn't have very good taste though they wanted to be "originals", the youngest ones looked much better and chic

Naomi.....

The new Naomi? hope she can keep chin up and not going through depression. First she needs to continuos playing well and then to know how to carry the fame , the publicity etc etc etc

I think what Emma did at the USO was incredible,I hope she gets the 'right people around her' to advise her going forward.
Emma is still young,expectations are High,let her progress at her own pace.
Remember another young lady who also did not drop a set on the way to her own maiden GS title at Roland Garos,Iga Swiatek,is having solid results since her win,nothing outstanding,again finding her own path on the tour.

I think that is great news for Kerber fans. So glad she seems to have a renewed interest in her career, her results have been promising the past six months. Let's see if she can make a push and qualify for the WTA finals.

You have to admit Venus looked incredible, her fashion school education has paid off, at least in her personal life. I thought of all the tennis celebrities she really outshined her fellow players.
