Naomi Osaka says her Wimbledon outfit was inspired by Lucy Liu in Kill Bill: "When you're coming out for a first round match. That striking amazing outfit you came out in... how much of a difference does that make and tell us about the inspiration for it.." "Yeah, it makes a difference. For me, I find fashion to be really fun. You guys all look for beautiful and I kind of want to come out in something to. To me, my Japanese heritage means a lot. They said all white in Wimbledon and I thought it'd be really cute to come out in a Kimono. I just get inspired by a lot of different things. One of my favorite movies is Kill Bill. I really love Lucy Liu's character, O-ren Ishii. She comes out in this really iconic white Kimono. I always tell people I like to be like a video character sometimes, I don't want to be myself when I'm playing on the court and I tried to embody her a little."
