Serena Williams gets Vogue editor Anna Wintour to laugh

Serena Williams looked stunning in a hot pink suit when she hit the Michael Kors show in New York City on Wednesday.

The 40-year-old tennis pro sat in the exclusive front row next to legendary 72-year-old Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour who usually keeps a poker face during runway shows.

While seated side by side, the athlete impressively got the British star to lighten up by laughing as they joked around.

The two have been close friends for years as Anna is a big tennis fan.

And Wintour has also worked with Serena, having put the Compton, California native on the cover of her magazine several times.

Serena looked toned and slim in her suit as she added heels.Her highlighted hair was pulled back into a sleek ponytail. 

The athlete has been in the news lately as she talks about retiring from tennis to spend more time with her daughter Olympia, and also to work on her eponymous fashion brand. 

On Anna’s other side was Anne Hathaway which may have been a sticky situation. 

Anne played an ambitious assistant to Meryl Streep’s fashion magazine editor in the movie The Devil Wears Prada.It was widely believed Streep’s icy character was based on Wintour.

The portrait was far from flattering.

But Anna seemed to keep her cool as Hathaway chatted. 

The Michael Kors show for his Spring 2023 collection was held during New York Fashion Week and attracted a very large number of celebrities.

One after another came the big-name beauties as they wore the impressive collection from Kors, a 63-year-old Long Island native.

But it was supermodel Bella Hadid who stole the day as she modeled several sexy looks, like a bra top with a mini skirt and a plunging cocktail dress with sequins.

Among the luminaries were actresses Vanessa Hudgens, Anne Hathaway, Alexandra Daddario, influencer Nicky Hilton, models Sofia Richie and Christie Brinkley, who brought her mini-me daughter Sailor Brinkley Cook, and tennis star Williams.

Bella looked like a Bond girl in her incredible dress that had thin spaghetti straps and came in at the waist where it was ruched.

The dress fell below her knee and had an asymmetrical hemline that highlighted her toned legs. 

Hadid added two Wonder Woman style cuff bracelets that only added to the elegance of her look.

The cover girl’s dark hair was pulled back and she had on light makeup with no earrings of necklace. 

Also seen was Bill Gates’ ex Melinda Gates and their daughter Phoebe Adele Gates.

Sports Illustrated supermodel Brinkley proved that age is just a number as her figure looked incredible in a form-fitting white lace dress.
