When you’ve got a night off, no kids around, and it’s girls’ night out, it’s game on-and Serena Williams isn’t one to sit on the sidelines. She stepped out for a sleek and star-studded evening, showing the world she’s not afraid to bring her A-game in both fashion and moves.
Rocking a curve-hugging dress that left little to the imagination, Serena took her turn on the dance floor with fierce, confident moves that flirted with a wardrobe mishap-but she didn’t miss a beat. With every move she proved that bold fashion and bold confidence go hand in hand-even when things almost get too hot to handle.
When the dress dares you back
Recently named one of TIME’s 100 Most Influential People of 2025, Serena’s glow-up hasn’t slowed down since stepping away from tennis in 2022. Her influence goes way beyond the court, and it’s clear she’s still dominating headlines-now with glam instead of a racket.
Being a boss isn’t always easy, but Serena’s got a formula: dance like no one’s watching, wear the dress that hugs just right, and walk into any room like you own it. Even if a tiny mishap threatens to steal the show, with Serena’s poise, it’s handled like it was all part of the plan.
Honorees from TIME100’s 2025 list rolled up to the Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York, and of course, Serena did it in style. The queen of the court may have stepped back from tennis, but she’s clearly still serving-just in a different arena.
Confidence makes the comeback
Over the last 15 years, she’s made serious money moves too-backing over 120 companies, including 14 unicorns. Serena Ventures alone has pulled in over $100 million in outside capital since 2021. Let’s be honest, mishaps rarely show up in Serena’s world-and when they do, she owns them just like that tight dress she mastered all night.
At the end of the day, Serena didn’t just turn up-she turned heads, turned up the heat, and turned a near-mishap into a power moment. That’s how legends do it.
