ARYNA SABALENKA put on a grand slam display with a bold new outfit ahead of the French Open.
The women’s world No 1 player is looking to win the major for the first time after losing last year’s final to Coco Gauff.
And she has geared up for the tournament with some brand new gear after showing off her “super suit” for Roland Garros.
She released a video on Instagram wearing a plain black silk top and skirt.
Sabalenka mimicked the classic line from The Incredibles as she asked: “Where is my supersuit?”
She then covered the camera with a hand before the video cuts to her wearing the bold see-through tennis dress, fading from fiery red to jet black.

The Nike dress has black lines running down the middle and an orange racer-style neckline.
Sabalenka wrote in her caption: “My @nike supersuit for @rolandgarros.”
The outfit design was a hit with fans as some called it her “best one yet”.
One said: “This is an outfit for a queen.”
Another added: “Red hot, great suit for the title.”
A third commented: “You look gorgeous, you’ll be turning lots of heads.”
A fourth said: “This is your best outfit yet. Please don’t boycott, show them your worth wearing this.”
It comes after Sabalenka warned players could boycott major tournaments amid a dispute over prize money.
A group of ATP and WTA players have been asking the Slams to up the prize pool at the French Open in line with the rising revenues at the tournament.
The French Open offers a prize pool of £53.2million. That is a 9.5 per cent increase on last year, but Sabalenka believes players are worth more.
Both the men’s and women’s champions will receive £2.4m this year, but Sabalenka feels they are worth much more.
She said: “I feel like [boycott] is going to be the only way to kind of, like, fight for our rights.
“Let’s see how far we can get. If it’s going to take players for boycott.
“I feel like nowadays, we girls can easily get together and go for this because some of the things I feel like it’s really unfair to the players. I think at some point it’s going to get to this.”
