Now that it\u2019s officially fall, most of us are swapping out swimsuits<\/a> and cutoffs for jeans<\/a>, boots<\/a> and cozy knits<\/a>. But Serena Williams<\/a>? She\u2019s rewriting the seasonal style rules and somehow making swimwear work for fall.<\/p>\n On September 22, the 44-year-old tennis icon took to social media to share a carousel of photos that had me doing a double take. In the pics, Serena is lounging barefoot against a balcony, her curls<\/a> blowing effortlessly in the wind, wearing what at first looks like a chic, casual loungewear set: a grey shorts romper with a long robe draped over the top. But plot twist, it\u2019s actually swimwear.<\/p>\n Wait\u2026 satin swimwear? I don\u2019t know when that became a thing but I\u2019m officially obsessed. Especially with the unexpected lace detailing around the chest and thighs, which, in case you missed it, is totally on trend this fall. Lingerie-inspired looks<\/a> are having a major moment and leave it to Serena to deliver it through beachwear.<\/p>\n Of course, this isn\u2019t the WYN Beauty<\/a> founder’s first foray into luxe satin. In another recent post (where she debuted a fresh curly hairstyle<\/a>), Serena stunned in a vibrant red satin dress, sleeveless and paired with silver heels.<\/p>\n And let\u2019s not forget the dress of the summer<\/a>. Earlier this year, she posted a sun-soaked series of snaps taken in nature. While the backdrop was gorgeous, all eyes were on her silky brown spaghetti-strap slip dress, which she styled with white sandals, black sunglasses and her bronde hair pulled back into a sleek ponytail.<\/p>\n In short: Fall may be here but Serena Williams is proof that swimwear and satin still have a moment to shine.<\/p>\n Want all the latest entertainment news sent right to your inbox?
