Serena Williams has been subject to unfair body shaming but hits back at the haters with her recent incredible photoshoot for 'New York Magazine.'

In the interview Williams reveals that her love of fashion extends beyond her love of tennis "That was my first real love," she tells the magazine, "but then I was like, Listen. I'm playing professional tennis. I'll just do athleticwear."

Serena looked the picture of elegance as she arrived at the Champions' Dinner in London after Wimbledon 2015.

The victory over Garbine Muguruza gave WIlliams her 21st Grand Slam title.

Serena and sister Venus now both have their own fashion labels. 'Serena's Signature Statement Collection' is the tennis star's passion, however she says first she still has tennis history to make.
