Osaka ramps up fashion stakes at French Open before first-round win
- On Tuesday at the French Open, Naomi Osaka wore a custom black outfit designed by Swiss couturier Kevin Germanier for her first-round match against Germany's Laura Siegemund on Court Suzanne-Lenglen at Roland-Garros in Paris.
- Osaka has elevated her Grand Slam fashion presence throughout 2026, beginning with a jellyfish-inspired look at the Australian Open in January designed by designer Robert Wun.
- Germanier constructed the outfit from upcycled materials, with a structured corset crafted from Osaka's competition garments and a cascading pleated skirt created from her jacket's interior layers, paired with a Nike kit featuring a ruffled two-tiered peplum and gold sequins.
- Though Osaka is just one match into the French Open, she's already running away with the best-dressed trophy. Germanier told WWD designing the look was 'a true honor' to celebrate her strength and athleticism.
- Osaka explained on Saturday that fashion is her primary form of expression, stating 'I am a little dramatic when it comes to my fashion sense.' Ahead of the tournament, she hosted a dinner with American tennis player Taylor Townsend for Black tennis players.
