Zwanger en verloofd: Serena Williams staat prachtig op cover ‘Vanity Fair’

Worstenvingers
Het schieten van de foto’s vond plaats vlak nadat ze in april haar zwangerschap bekendmaakte. Serena zegt over de shoot en haar zwangerschap: ‘Ik heb het gevoel dat ik geen enkels of tenen heb en dat m’n vingers lijken op worsten, maar op momenten als deze is dat het allemaal waard.’

Leuk voor later
Tijdens haar zwangerschap heeft de tenniskampioen al verschillende fotoshoots gedaan en nu kan ze Vogue aan haar portfolio toevoegen. Op blote voeten en gekleed in luxe avondjurken van Versace en Ralph Lauren, ziet de toekomstige moeder er prachtig uit.

Just a few days after announcing I was pregnant, we did this shoot for the @voguemagazine iconic September issue. I was so energetic that day but then I remember being totally exhausted and needed to take a break for an hour. I was still trying to understand this whole pregnancy process. Nowadays I have no ankles or toes and my fingers resemble sausages but it's moments like this that are captured by @mariotestino that makes everything worthwhile. Dress by my love @donatella_versace

“Alexis thinks we’re having a boy, but I have a strong suspicion that it’s a girl,” @SerenaWilliams says. “Two weeks after we found out, I played the Australian Open. I told Alexis it has to be a girl because there I was playing in 100-degree weather, and that baby never gave me any trouble. Ride or die. Women are tough that way.” Tap the link in our bio to read the full interview. Photographed by @MarioTestino, styled by @tonnegood, Vogue, September 2017.
