Was I the only one who didn't know tennis champion Venus Williams owns not only a fashion design business but also an interior design company? I knew she designed some of the tennis outfits she's worn at the French Open and other tournaments. But I was surprised to learn during her interview with Rita Braver on the CBS Sunday Morning show a couple of days ago that Williams has been designing other kinds of women's clothing as well. And her interior design company has designed a number of apartments in New York City and Miami.
Her clothing design company is named
EleVen. And her interior design company, of which she is CEO, is
V Starr Interiors.
When asked why she gave her fashion design company the name EleVen, Williams said, "Because it's one more than ten." Good answer.
Williams has a degree in fashion, and she indicated in the interview a couple of days ago that when an autoimmune disorder slowed her down, she took advantage of the free time to start the two new businesses.
