It may have been Super Bowl Sunday, but Serena Williams was busy winning a victory of her own. At her first match at the 2021 Australian Open, the tennis star defeated her opponent, Laura Siegemund, 6-1, 6-1. But it wasn’t just the win that had people talking, her outfit was getting a lot of attention, as well.
Serena wore a one-legged catsuit that was a tribute to another iconic Olympic athlete, the late Florence Griffith Joyner, aka Flo-Jo.

During a post-match interview, Serena confirmed that her look, which consisted of a pink, black, and red unitard with one full-length pant leg and one short, was a throwback to Flo-Jo’s signature style.
