That’s the name of the game this week for Serena Williams, who’s about to gladly see the other shoe drop. Actually, it’s a pair of toddler-sized Gucci sneakers.
On Thursday, the tennis superstar, entrepreneur and mom is selling nearly a dozen pieces from the closet of her 18-month-old daughter Alexis Olympia Ohanian and donating proceeds to charity.

That’s the name of the game this week for Serena Williams, who’s about to gladly see the other shoe drop. Actually, it’s a pair of toddler-sized Gucci sneakers.
Last month, Williams, 37, sold selections from her own closet — including a floral kimono, designer dresses and Gucci jacket — on Poshmark after joining the company’s board. The clothes flew off racks almost as fast as her 122-plus-mph tennis serve.
Like the earnings from that sale, ones from her daughter’s wardrobe go to Yetunde Price Resource Center, created three years ago and named in honor of Serena’s late sister who was killed in an act of senseless violence in 2003. The organization is dedicated to providing help and promoting community healing.
