Venus Williams Signs with Steve & Barry’s

This November, tennis star and fashion icon Venus Williams will launch EleVen by Venus Williams, an exclusive collection of active lifestyle and performance gear, as well as casual footwear and accessories, via an exclusive agreement with retailer Steve & Barry’s. Williams’ signature item is the V-Court sneaker—a high performance on-court sneaker that the tennis star will debut on court at the U.S. Open this week. The collection, which is priced below $19.98, draws from Williams’ personal sense of style, as well as her formal education in fashion design. “I play a graceful kind of game, which is kind of classic, and the line reflects that,” says Williams.
