In recent years, Naomi Osaka has emerged as one of the fastest-growing players in tennis. The Japanese sensation has managed to earn a fair amount of success, both on the courts and off it too. At such a young age, she is seen as a role model for new budding talents. 

Recently, Naomi Osaka spoke about her fondness for Japanese designer wear. Fashion is an important part of her life, and she pays keen attention while selecting her outfits. However, when she is in Japan, it becomes tough for her to roam freely in public as her popularity is high in the region. 

Naomi Osaka has worn a cap or wig to hide her identity

There have been times when the youngster has been forced to hide her identity by sporting a cap or a wig. Naomi stated, “Since I have spent a lot of time in Japan in my teens and early adult life, those memories are clearer than my early childhood. It’s a bit more difficult to go out publicly in Japan than it used to be. So sometimes I disguise myself in a cap and wig.”

Osaka likes to experiment with various styles and take risks in fashion. When in Japan, she prefers going to a couple of selected places to shop.

The Japanese athlete added, “Fashion is a huge passion of mine, and so I love shopping in places like Harajuku and Shibuya. My own style is also heavily influenced by Japanese designers and fashion. I like to take risks when it comes to fashion and that is definitely inspired by Japan.”

Osaka won her second Australian Open title this season. After her stint in Melbourne, she climbed up on the ranking and became the world’s second-best player. Later, she was on a 23-match unbeaten streak, which ended at the Miami Open. As the focus now shifts to clay, she will be seen at the different clay court events.
