LONDON, July 1: Naomi Osaka had a new look to show off before winning her second-round match at Wimbledon.
Osaka, whose fashion reveals have become an event of their own at Grand Slam tournaments, wore a less elaborate outfit for her walk-on than the “Kill Bill” inspired kimono for her opening-round match Monday.
This all-white outfit featured a wide belt and a long train behind her. It drew plenty of attention as she made the walk from the locker room to No. 2 Court, trailed by photographers and fans wanting to take their own photos.
The four-time major winner took off the latest ensemble as she began warming up for her match against qualifier Anastasia Gasanova on Wednesday.
She went on to quickly dispatch Gasanova 6-3, 6-2.
“I’m just trying to mix it up a little bit,” Osaka said about her outfit, adding she had been worried that a loss might have ruined her daughter Shai’s third birthday on Thursday.
“I just wanted to be here for longer, I didn’t want to make her get on a plane on her birthday,” Osaka said. (AP)
