Naomi Osaka has started her journey at Wimbledon 2026 on the right foot with a great victory against Elsa Jacquemot with a score of 6-1 7-5, and as usual, one of the most talked-about topics in every Grand Slam appearance of hers has been the outfit she wore onto the court. This time, the Japanese tennis player wore an impressive white kimono and explained the reason behind this decision.

"The outfit makes a difference. For me, fashion is very fun. You look for beauty, and I also want to look like that. My Japanese heritage means a lot to me. They said everything at Wimbledon is in white, and I thought it would be really nice to go out in a kimono. I draw inspiration from many different things. One of my favorite movies is Kill Bill. I love Lucy Liu's character, O-ren Ishii. She wears an iconic white kimono. I always tell people that sometimes I like to be like a video game character; I don't want to be myself when I play on the court, and I tried to embody her a bit," she revealed at court-side.

Osaka causes a stir once again in another Grand Slam

There are many differences between the 4 Grand Slams of the season, but if there's one thing that stands out, it's the extravagance of Osaka. Loved by many and criticized by others, Naomi always seeks to innovate in her court entrances so that not only her matches or the level she displays are talked about, which has been very high lately. Restricted by Wimbledon's rule of only wearing white clothing, the Japanese tennis player opted for one of the most iconic outfits that are remembered, and if you add to that the good game she has been showing, you have a perfect product to promote the WTA circuit.
