Venus Williams’ Met Gala looks have been a smash hit over the years.
Williams attended her first Met Gala in 2008 where the theme was Superheroes: Fashion and Fantasy. The tennis pro stunned in a silver strapless gown. Since her premiere strut on the museum’s iconic stairs, Williams has continued to elevate her fashion.
Ahead of the 2026 Met Gala, Williams was announced as one of the event’s cochairs alongside Beyoncé and Nicole Kidman. Williams teased her excitement for the festivities and the theme “Costume Art.”
“I love the theme. It’s a perfect fit for me,” Williams said in an April 2026 interview with Vogue. “It’s even more important today because people feel so much pressure to look a certain way. Though there’s so much beauty in difference.”
