World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka opened her 2026 Roland Garros campaign with a dominant victory, but it wasn’t only her tennis that drew attention in Paris. The Belarusian star arrived on Court Philippe-Chatrier serving a full luxury fashion moment, pairing her seductive Nike Summer Slam Dress with a custom diamond-and-garnet jewelry set that instantly became one of the tournament’s biggest style highlights.

Sabalenka defeated Spain’s Jessica Bouzas Maneiro 6-4 6-2 to extend her remarkable streak of first-round Grand Slam victories to 22 in a row. The top seed dictated play from the opening games, surging to dominant leads in both sets (4-0 in the first and 5-0 in the second). Yet alongside the tennis, fans couldn’t stop talking about the glamorous details of her Roland Garros look.
The conversation surrounding Russian player Oksana Selekhmeteva debuting the same “exclusive” Nike dress earlier in the tournament quickly faded once Sabalenka stepped onto the court dripping in diamonds and commanding the spotlight. The centerpiece of Sabalenka’s outfit was a layered necklace suite created by Material Good, the New York luxury jeweler she has collaborated with since the 2026 Australian Open.

According to details surrounding the piece, the jewelry included an extraordinary 23 carats of diamonds alongside 200 carats of rich crimson garnets chosen specifically as a tribute to the famous Paris clay courts. This latest fashion statement continues a growing trend of luxury jewelry moments in Sabalenka’s life. Earlier this year, after getting engaged to Brazilian entrepreneur Georgios Frangulis, the Belarusian star unveiled a striking 12-carat oval-cut engagement ring designed by ISA Grutman Jewelry, with estimates placing its value at at least $500,000.
Sabalenka herself admitted after Tuesday’s win at Roland Garros that opening rounds at Grand Slams are always tricky, regardless of the scoreline. She typically becomes more relaxed and dangerous as the event progresses, even if there are no truly easy matches at the highest level.
