The story behind the look

Ostapenko’s Melbourne wardrobe included a black design combining a plain sleeveless upper section with a patterned collar and dramatically angled polka-dot skirt. The uneven skirt panels made the silhouette as conspicuous as the dotted print.

Ostapenko reached her first Australian Open singles quarterfinal that year. The look formed part of her expressive wardrobe developed with the Latvian brand DK ONE.
