Most of the athletes are known for their skills, but the Japanese tennis sensation Naomi Osaka has an added flair of being a style icon as well! While the tennis world knows Osaka for her power-packed performances on the court, her influence off the court is just as captivating, thanks to her impeccable fashion sense. Though the recently concluded US Open didn’t quite go her way in terms of results, Osaka’s style game was anything but disappointing. Her unique and exhilarating fashion choices continue to turn heads, leaving fans eager to replicate her bold looks.

The 26-year-old has witnessed a subpar season with early exits and shocking defeats so far. In the US Open as well, she was whisked out by Karolina Muchova in the second round itself in straight sets. However, despite her poor performance, Osaka got the appropriate limelight, thanks to her unique and creative fashion sense and outfit at the tournament. Despite the tournament being over more than two weeks ago, her outfit has continued to remain relevant. 

Taking to Instagram, a user shared several pictures in which a young lady can be seen in a similar outfit as Osaka. In one of those pictures, seven ladies are standing holding tennis racquets in their hands wearing white and black attire with a huge green bow. The user also highlighted that the style was inspired by Osaka’s US Open outfit, and the star player was quick to respond. 

Sharing the post on her Instagram story, Osaka expressed her happiness. “💚🎀The bow lives forever,” she wrote signifying that the style would continue to dominate the tennis corridors for long. Remember, the outfit for Osaka was designed by Nike in collaboration with its frequent contributor Yoon Ahn, and was inspired by the Japanese Lolita goth community. 

Nike’s Naomi Osaka x Yoon Ahn collection featured two outfits – one for playing in the daytime in green, and one for evening/ night matches in black. The competition kits also featured walk-on skirts and jackets with oversized bows. While Osaka’s US Open outfit has continued to mesmerize fans, the Japanese star was herself quite impressed with it during the tournament.

Naomi Osaka found her US Open outfit flamboyant 

Naomi Osaka has continued to surprise fans with her unique fashion sense. Whether it is about drawing a resemblance with Serena Williams, or showcasing a blend of cultures, Osaka has often captured attention with her fashion style. But when it comes to her outfits at the US Open, the star player finds it a little bit different.

Speaking to the press during the tournament this year, Osaka opened up about her outfit. “I definitely love to be involved in everything I do, whether it’s fashion or anything else. But I feel like being able to be a part of my tennis outfits gives me, I would say, a different strength,” she said. Continuing further, she reflected upon her love for her outfits at the US Open. “Especially the US Open outfits, I feel like they are a little bit more flamboyant. When I was putting on my outfit today, I was, like, ah, I hope this isn’t too much!”

As the season evolves, it will be interesting to see if Naomi Osaka continues to dazzle in more interesting looks and catch the attention of the fans like never before.
