Naomi Osaka has partnered with Levi’s for a new Spring/Summer 2022 collection, launching five new denim offerings based on Osaka’s illustrations. The collection comprises a medium and light wash shirt jacket that can be converted into a dress, a bomber jacket, two skirts, and a denim halter top. Naomi Osaka’s "flower bear" adorns the cropped jacket, along with different floral motifs on the lower half of the jacket and sleeves. The skirts arrive in two mermaid and ruffled styles and can be paired with the denim halter top for a full ensemble.
Each item in the collection is made with 100% organic cotton as a part of Levi’s sustainability initiatives. The Levi’s x Naomi Osaka collection launches July 18 on the Levi’s website.
