ADEAM X NAOMI OSAKA

What does Naomi Osaka do when she's not winning her third Grand Slam or being a leader for social justice through powerful masks and statements? Well, she isn't exactly kicking back and relaxing, that's for sure. The tennis pro also happens to have a passion for fashion, collaborating with ADEAM on a collection that launched on Sept. 15. "I have always loved fashion, even when I was younger, and my sister Mari and I would look through fashion magazines on the way to tennis tournaments," she told InStyle via email. "I think fashion is a great way to reflect your mood and to also be playful and take chances. On and off the court, I like what I wear to reflect how I am feeling at that moment." Osaka's ADEAM collaboration first hit the runway earlier this year, but now that it's finally available to shop, Hanako Maeda, CEO and Creative Director of the brand is extra excited. "When I first heard that Naomi is a fan of ADEAM, I was so thrilled and honored," she told InStyle. "I've been a huge fan of Naomi — she is such a powerful female role model, both on and off-court. Once we met in person, we immediately clicked, and the creative process came naturally. We shared similar reference points — our love for Japanese fashion, and a strong feminine aesthetic. It's been such a dream to work with Naomi, and I hope that we can collaborate again in the future on something fun!"
