Naomi Osaka has made a bold statement at the 2026 Australian Open with a look that blends high fashion and deep personal meaning. Working with couturier Robert Wun, she debuted a stunning outfit that captured the world’s attention. Interestingly, the creative spark for this unique ensemble came from her two-year-old daughter, Shai.
According to Osaka, this jellyfish-inspired style represents “the birth of something new,” symbolizing a sense of “energy, transformation, and excitement” during this chapter of her life.

A recent Instagram post by Vogue magazine shared details about this collaboration. The caption explains that Osaka does not play when it comes to her on-court fashion.
For this year’s tournament, she chose a look inspired by Shai, her young daughter. The post describes the outfit as “symbolic of energy, transformation, and excitement.” The collaboration involved several creative professionals, with photos and videos credited to Adam Kudemati, Sebastian Arriagada, and CCG Social.
The photos shared in the post offer a close look at the intricate design. In the primary images, Naomi is seen wearing a teal and green garment layered with a sheer, flowing white veil. She holds a unique, sculptural umbrella that features sharp, dramatic points, resembling the structure of a jellyfish. She also wears a wide-brimmed white hat that supports the long veil, which drapes over her shoulders and arms like tentacles.
Behind-the-scenes shots show the preparation involved in creating this look. One video shows Naomi in a mirror, taking a photo of herself while wearing wide-leg pleated white trousers and a patterned top. Another video captures a stylist adjusting a large, sheer headpiece while Naomi wears a vibrant blue and green Nike jacket.
These images highlight the transformation from a sports-focused kit to a piece of wearable art. Every detail, from the pleated fabrics to the translucent accessories, brings the jellyfish theme to life.
