Naomi Osaka

The Nike Paris collection brings asymmetry, intriguing cutouts and wavy colorblocks that create a sense of constant movement. Naomi Osaka‘s custom Nike dress belongs to the same aesthetic, but it stands out from the rest with its vibrant citron coloring.

During warm-up, the four-time Grand Slam champion wore this loose unisex print jacket made from at least 75% recycled polyester. It’s from her own Nike collection. The bold pattern is inspired by Naomi’s roots and evolution.

Anett Kontaveit‘s Lacoste Roland Garros Dress nurtures timeless tennis elegance in Paris. Navy is a classic choice for clay and orange stitch details perfectly match the tournament’s surface. This sophisticated design captivates with subtle elements such as elasticized mesh straps on the back that create an open cut-out, as well as an elastic mesh waist and a lightweight pleated skirt.

ROLAND GARROS FASHION THROUGH THE YEARS:

16 COMMENTS

  1. None of these outfits are really doing it for me. I usually LOVE tennis fashion, not exactly sure where Nike and Adidas are going recently, I haven’t enjoyed them in a while.

    Lacoste is my favourite, chic and timeless! Typical France, haha.

    Hope you’re well Marija!

  2. Lelah Fernandez is about the best
    Rest are very wishy washy not striking at all
    And the Nike one sleeve – dreadful!!
    Ostpenko. – really awful and looks home made

  3. Nike and Adidas – I really do not know what they are doing. Their clothes are getting worse and worse.
    Great look from Lacoste – so simply but so elegant – really great.
    Really nice, and also simply, outfit from Original Penguin.
    I really don’t want to comment Ostapenko’s one – just a disaster.
    And I’m still a little dissapointed that the world no1 doesn’t have something “wow”.

  4. The Nike kit is just awful! Drab colours, weird hemlines and unflattering cut outs. Who in their right mind would ok these designs!!

  5. La no 1 porte Asics alors, eux, c’est toujours même affaire, un kit de mémère vieux on dirait, Et oui, toujours très élégante les kits LULULEMON de Leylah, et même La joueuse Sarville porte notre marque Canadienne, la jupe est vraiment belle! Plate qu’ils en parle pas, elle a quand même gagné Rolland Garos Junior Leylah, et la marque Canadienne LULULEMON EST très belle, elle a le droit d’être identifiée autant, si non plus que Ostapenko! Le Kit Nike a Bianca était beau avec les deux manche noire, et la jupe légère, très bien! J’aime très rarement Asics et jamais Lotto!

Le Kit Nike a Bianca était beau avec les deux manche noire, et la jupe légère, très bien! J’aime très rarement Asics et jamais Lotto! Tellement LAID LES KITS A OSAKA, pourquoi tand de dessins, ça manque de classe, pourtant elle en a de la classe!

  7. The Nike kits arent as bad, I love the color combination, although the cut out does make it look tacky.
    Although Naomi’s dress looke like crap, it looks like recycled & rip version of her ’21 US open dress, but her jacket is fire, i would wear it!.

    The worst has to be ADIDAS, constant recycled Y back strap and child like plant design, ADIDAS tennis should really collaborate with prominent designer like IVY PARK.

    I gotta say Coco Gauff’s New Balance dress is stunning, except the black graphic on the top, should’ve kept it in plain colors

  8. Ostapenkos Outfit: Awful! First I thought it’s a kind of costume, it really looks “homemade” from a old fashion Taylor who thought woman should wear frills in every situation! My favorite outfit is the Fila collection with the colorful stripes.

  9. Ostapenkos Outfit: Awful! First I thought it’s a kind of costume, My favorite outfit is the Fila collection with the colorful stripes.

  10. Poor Ostapenko…… It does look “homemade” in the worst sense of the word. I like the Adidas Pow Wo dress for its I also like the Lotto Spring Iv 2 Ombre outfit. Naomi Osaka’s outfit was OK. Who are the Nike designers and who is paying them to create things like the pastel outfits which are so dull and unattractive that I could go to sleep watching someone play in them.

  11. I don’t like Ostapenko but her outfit looks amazing. The Nike kit looked good on Andreescu.
    Adidas and Fila always have the worst designs…

  12. Love the color scheme on Coco’s New Balance kit. Caro Wozniacki agrees on her Tennis Channel color commentary.

  13. Hi Marija, WTA fashion always inspires all of us. One thing which I liked the best was that the jacket which the four-time Grand Slam champion wore was made up of at least 75% recycled polyester. I love to work for the environment and recycling helps in the well-being of the environment. I would like to request all the brands to go for 100% organic clothing. As one of the most dangerous forms of pollution is polyfibre floating everywhere; it’s in the air, water & soil.

    Some researchers have found polyfibre in the placenta. Almost every human being has enough plastic in them to manufacture a credit card. The polyfibre, the amount of damage it is causing and the & way it is entering our body is very dangerous. Polyfibre is very flammable & because of that, it is being coated with fire-resistant chemicals. These chemicals are carcinogenic.

    There have been various researches, especially on children. The many problems that children are facing today, young children having thyroid problems are largely connected with these non-flammable chemicals that they are using on the clothes.

    Also, 100 billion pieces of clothing are sold on the planet every year & 85 billion pieces of clothing go into the landfills every year & most of it is polyester.
