Naomi Osaka made a fashion statement at Wimbledon by wearing a kimono inspired by Lucy Liu’s character in ‘Kill Bill’. The Japanese player’s outfit drew a rave reaction from the crowd.
Osaka’s Fashion Creations
Osaka has made a habit of creating a buzz with her creative outfits at recent Grand Slam tournaments. At the Australian Open, she wore a wide-brim hat, a veil, and held a white parasol. At the French Open, she came out in a ceremonial black skirt and sleeveless beaded bodice.
Osaka said she got the inspiration for the outfit from a Quentin Tarantino movie. ‘For me, my Japanese heritage means a lot. They say all white at Wimbledon and I thought it would be really cool to come out in a kimono,’ Osaka said in an on-court interview.
