The 28-year-old tennis star walked onto the red clay wearing a dramatic, all-black outfit designed by Swiss creator Kevin Germanier who is known for his high-end clothes with upcycled fabrics.

The outer layer featured a beaded sleeveless corset top paired with a long, pleated maxi skirt.

Before her first-round match, Osaka removed the black layers to reveal a custom, glittering gold Nike tennis dress underneath, covered in rows of shiny sequins.

Osaka won the game and in post-match interviews said, “I felt like I looked like the Eiffel Tower at night, when it’s bright. When the sun hits the dress, it reflects a lot. So I was a little scared that the umpire was going to kick me off the court. I got two backup normal Nike dresses. Thank God I didn’t have to wear them
