At the 2023 CFDA Fashion Awards, Serena Williams is scheduled to receive a Fashion Icon Award
Serena Williams said on Wednesday, October 11, that the 2023 CFDA Fashion Awards jury would honor her on November 8 in New York.
Since her retirement in 2022, the 23-time Major winner has concentrated her attention on her apparel brand, “S by Serena”. She even flaunted her baby bulge on the red carpet at this year’s Met Gala, where she wore a stunning Gucci gown.
During her playing career, Serena Williams also had great popularity for the tennis costumes she wore. In light of this, it seems fitting that the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) would present her with their “Fashion Icon Award”.
The 42-year-old informed her followers of the news mentioned above early on Wednesday via her Instagram stories. In the picture, she is seen wearing a white dress and flaunting her hourglass form.
With the description, “Serena Williams to Receive the Fashion Icon Award at the 2023 CFDA Fashion Awards,” her article was posted.
In any case, Serena Williams is the first athlete to get the title of Fashion Icon in the history of the event. According to what she told Vogue, she was really thrilled to get the award.
Since I was a little child, I have expressed myself via dress. “I’ve always believed that fashion is for everyone, regardless of size, color, or income. I’ve had so much fun discovering my style and letting it change as my life has changed,” she added in her statement.
“I am incredibly honored to be receiving the prestigious Fashion Icon award from the CFDA, an organization whose work I have long admired and to stand among style icons I have always looked up to,” she added.
