Naomi Osaka Reveals Why Her U.S. Open Outfit Had So Many Bows And Ruffles
HuffPost
The tennis star, who has advanced to the second round, predicted she’d feel a “transformation” when she wore her bow-oriented outfit for the tournament.
Tennis star Naomi Osaka gave a sweet nod to her Japanese culture as she kicked off her return to the U.S. Open with a win in the first round on Tuesday.
Osaka, in her victory over Jeļena Ostapenko, rocked an outfit complete with several bows that she sported, including on her bomber jacket, a light green ruffled skirt and on the backs of her shoes.
The four-time Grand Slam champion — who is competing in the U.S. Open for the first time since returning from maternity leave — told reporters after the first round that the fit was inspired by Japanese culture, including in Tokyo’s Harajuku district, an area known for its fashion.
“I definitely love to be involved in everything I do, whether it’s fashion or anything else,” said Osaka, who teased the fit on social media earlier this month as the best she’s “ever worn.”
She added, “But I feel like being able to be a part of my tennis outfits gives me, I would say, a different strength.”
