Fashion At This Year’s US Open Was All About Basketball

This year’s US Open fashion took its cues from basketball — from Alcaraz and Serena Williams to Aryna Sabalenka in New York Knicks colours.

The standout was Naomi Osaka, whose looks paid tribute to Allen Iverson, down to a recreated photoshoot and a headband with the NBA logo tweaked for tennis. There’s a lot more room for fashion brands to become part of tennis culture.
