I am not body shaming Serena as I appreciate athletes and their physical builds. But when you have sh*loads (pronounced shloads) of money, even with a super muscular body, you can dress far better than this! She and Rachel are both completely unable to dress for their body types. The 50's sockhop skirt is completely unflattering as is the super long skinny ponytail. If you ignore the ponytail she looks like a man in vintage drag. FFS hire a stylist-- you're too young and rich to look this frumpy and matronly...

The mother… a fine matronly dame of forty-five. A mild pale face, a deep black eye, and masses of raven hair, slightly sprinkled with silver threads of age, parted over a calm forehead, and tastefully disposed beneath a plain cap of lace, gave the mother an appearance of sweetness and dignity combined, that was eminently effective in winning the respect and love of all who looked upon her.

George Lippard, Quaker City, 1845. And how is it matronly became a term of contempt? As though mature woman had nothing to offer the world?
