What did Naomi Osaka’s custom Labubu look like?

Osaka wears a rose-themed outfit that includes a red sweater and a tennis skirt. She sports 3D printed and bedazzled roses and headphones to match.

But she isn’t the only one wearing head-to-toe crystals. She attaches a matching Labubu to her duffel bag, which attracts the attention of many fans.

The custom Labubu, which she calls Billie Jean Bling, was created by A-Morir Studio. The Labubu is dripped out in red crystals and carries a mini tennis racket.

“I was like: ‘Do you think this is possible?’ Maybe it was two weeks ago. Yeah, we kind of just toss ideas around. Obviously, the outcome is way better than I could have imagined,” Osaka tells CNN about her decision to add the custom Labubu to her outfit.

In a viral TikTok, Osaka flaunts her custom Labubu.

However, others didn’t appreciate the outfit addition.

“So grown people collecting children’s toys again,” one fan says.

“These things are the stupidest items on the market today,” another laments.

“Do celebrities ever not go with trends and maybe be original or no?” a third asks.
