Naomi Osaka reveals her intimate item was stolen after arriving in Rome for Italian Open days after her glamorous Met Gala appearance

Naomi Osaka grabbed attention once again, but this time it was not only for her fashion statement at the Met Gala 2026. The Japanese tennis star recently shared on Threads that her bonnet was stolen after she arrived in Rome for the ongoing Italian Open. Osaka had traveled to Italy shortly after making a stunning appearance at the Met Gala in New York. Her post quickly went viral among fans on social media.

The four-time Grand Slam champion reached Rome later than many other top players because of her Met Gala commitment. While several stars had already started training for the WTA 1000 tournament, Osaka was still completing fashion duties in New York. Despite the hectic schedule, she managed to make headlines with both her glamorous red-carpet look and her humorous social media update after reaching Italy. Osaka will now shift her full focus toward her second-round clash against Eva Lys.

Naomi Osaka shines at Met Gala before Italian Open campaign

Naomi Osaka impressed fans with her outfit choice at the 2026 Met Gala. The 28-year-old wore a custom-designed white feathered outfit created by designer Robert Wun. She also matched the look with a stylish headpiece designed by London-based milliner Awon Golding. Later on the red carpet, Osaka removed the white outer layer and revealed a sparkling red dress decorated with Swarovski crystals. She completed the appearance with long red gloves and shining jewelry.

Speaking about the event with Vogue, Osaka explained that most fans know her because of her tennis outfits, but attending the Met Gala allowed her to express herself differently through fashion. She shared that being part of one of the biggest fashion events in the world felt very special and exciting for her career outside tennis.

Osaka also posted photos from the event on Instagram with a caption suggesting that her outfit theme was fully centered around the color red. Fans quickly praised her unique style and confidence.

This was not Osaka’s first collaboration with Robert Wun. Earlier this season at the Australian Open, she wore a custom Nike x Robert Wun tennis outfit that included the designer’s signature accessories.

After the glamour of New York, Osaka traveled directly to Rome for the Italian Open. Soon after arriving, she jokingly revealed on Threads that her bonnet had been stolen. The post drew reactions from fans, with many amused by the unexpected update.

Osaka received a first-round bye at the Italian Open and is set to begin her campaign against Eva Lys on Friday.
