Paris Fashion Week: Venus WIlliams, Adrien Brody

Venus Williams may not have been at Indian Wells to play the BNP Paribas Open, but the seven-time major singles winner was on the grounds of an illustrious tennis tournament elsewhere Sunday.

And she met up with a two-time Oscar winner at that.

With Paris Fashion Week taking over the City of Lights, Williams turned up to the French capital to take in the Lacoste Fall RTW 2025 show. The production was staged at none other than Roland Garros, with designer Pelagia Kolotouros unveiling her third collection for the clothing brand synonymous with the Parisian Grand Slam event.

Sitting front row and stunning in a green ensemble from head to toe, Williams was joined among others by Adrien Brody. A week earlier, the 51-year-old received his second Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role thanks to his work in The Brutalist.

Williams looked positively Wicked (now in theaters) in a dark, knee-length dress with jade and emerald accents in her scarf, handbag and possibly crocodile-inspired shoes. A long coat brought the greens together and had the fashion world defying gravity over the elegant look.

Brody, meanwhile, opted for a white and cream fit—as did Taylor Zakhar Perez (pictured above to the left of the tennis legend). Like Williams, the Red, White & Royal Blue star serves as a global ambassador for Lacoste.

As for when—or if—we'll next see Williams on a tennis court, that remains to be seen. The one-year mark of the former world No. 1's last appearance at the Miami Open is fast approaching.
