Eye-Opener: Venus Williams' corset-dress too ooh-la-la?

[a kennedy]

Good morning. And let's beging the day with a famous French saying: "Ooh-la-la."

Those were the words on many lips on Day 1 of the French Open as Venus Williams played in an outfit that was straight out of Moulin Rouge.

The corset-style dress black and lacy, with red trim, and had some see-through effects working. And to be fair, it wouldn't have drawn any notice at all . . . if it had been worn by a can-can dancer.

The French, being French, naturally sent some whistles raining down on Williams, who said the design was "about illusion." Oh yeah, and she did win, 6-3, 6-3 against Patty Schnyder.
