Monday  was the first of May, and that means fashion and celebrity met for the annual Met Gala in New York.

You can’t have either without sports.

Athletes came out to celebrate the opening of the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s “Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between.”

Tennis star Serena Williams, who recently announced she is pregnant with her first child, was among the sports figures to make their way up the 150-foot-long red carpet showing off their avant-garde styles.
