A sparkly Eiffel Tower-inspired golden dress at the French Open. The elegant all-white Japanese kimono at Wimbledon.<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Naomi Osaka has proved she knows how to make a grand entrance at the Grand Slams &#8211; and her arrival at this year&#8217;s US Open was always going to turn more heads.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The four-time major champion was draped in a hooded white gown &#8211; with cuttings of newspaper headlines about her career highlights sewn in &#8211; when she walked out for her first-round match against Russia&#8217;s Anastasia Zakharova in New York.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Underneath was an all-black basketball-style kit in which Osaka played as she fought her way to a 7-6 (8-6) 7-6 (7-3) win over world number 101 Zakharova.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Afterwards Osaka said the on-court look was inspired by NBA legend Allen Iverson, who is widely credited for introducing a sharper focus on fashion in his sport during the late 1990s and early 2000s.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;He&#8217;s a trailblazer. I think he&#8217;s also someone that I look up to a lot, because he&#8217;s done a lot in fashion, whether it&#8217;s on purpose or not,&#8221; said Osaka.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;He&#8217;s shifted the way that NBA players dress. I also think the whole conversation around clothes in sports and just expressing yourself through style.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;I feel like he&#8217;s someone

Monday&#8217;s night session was less stylish, however.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The Japanese 13th seed, who won the Flushing Meadows title in 2018 and 2020, faltered after a strong start and ultimately needed to dig deep to see off Zakharova.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Osaka broke at the first opportunity to take a 2-0 lead in the opener and although she was unable to convert another chance to go 4-0 ahead, still looked comfortable when she moved 5-2 up.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">However, Zakharova showed heart as she rallied to take the opener into a tie-break and fought back from another early break down in the second.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Osaka&#8217;s superb serve came to the fore as she opened up a commanding 5-1 lead in the second tie-break, going on to complete victory just before 00:30 local time and avoiding the need for a deciding set.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The former world number one will face the Czech Republic&#8217;s Katerina Siniakova in the second round &#8211; and promised her fans there will be another sartorial surprise.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;I wanted to play well because I wanted to show you guys some more outfits,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p
