Naomi Osaka sends tennis fans wild at Australian Open with ‘jellyfish’ outfit designed by London-based stylist who dresses Beyonce
Naomi Osaka has sent the tennis world into meltdown after her sensational entrance for her first round match against Antoia Ruzic at the Australian Open on Tuesday.
The Japanese tennis star turned heads as she entered Rod Laver Arena wearing a long turquoise ‘jellyfish’-inspired tunic, complete with a white pair of crimped trousers.
She also donned a white broad-brimmed hat that also had a large white butterfly attached to its top.
A transparent white veil trailed after her as the tennis player waved to fans inside Rod Laver Arena.
After removing her hat and carefully placing it on top of her chair, the world No 17 began to put on a turquoise jacket that matched her ‘jellyfish’ tunic. Designed by Nike, the jacket featured an ocean colourway that had little threads of green fabric appearing to dangle from it.
‘Wow,’ Tim Henman told TNT Sports. ‘This is quality.’
Osaka had also appeared to have left her bag on her chair prior to her entrance, with TNT pundit Laura Robson, also being left speechless.
‘Wow,’ the former British star said. ‘I’ve never seen anything quite like it. That is the ultimate walk on isn’t it.
‘The hat is kind of like a Beyonce formation moment.’
