| Araki Saori Goes Viral in Grey Suit, and the Internet Can’t Get Over It (Photo: kawausosuki/@kawausosuki0513) |
Move over office fashion — Araki Saori just turned a simple suit into a viral moment. The Japanese idol and gravure model, who’s been gaining attention since her Weekly Young Magazine debut last year, has recently blown up on Twitter (sorry — X) after posting a photo of herself in a sleek grey suit.
Uploaded on @kawausosuki0513 at 10PM JST on 24 July 2025, the snap shows Araki standing straight-faced in a classic formal grey suit, holding a black folder like she’s about to ace a presentation or report someone to HR.
But the caption? Just a cheerful “おはよう” — ohayou, aka good morning. Bit ironic considering the time of night, eh?

That didn’t stop the post from exploding. It’s now sitting at 19 million views and racking up over 95,000 likes — with comments flooding in from all corners of the globe praising her “visual queen” energy and effortless charisma in such a stiff getup.
😳 "She Makes a Grey Suit Look Like Haute Couture"
While most of us look like extras in a tax office drama when wearing a formal suit, Araki Saori somehow made it look editorial. One netizen said she “makes grey look like a power statement.” Another joked: “I’d actually go to work if my office looked like this.”

But beyond the style glow-up, there’s something very Japanese working culture about it all.
According to a 2020 Work in Japan study, most women in traditional office settings are still expected to wear plain, dark suits — showing professionalism and harmony over self-expression. No frills, no flair. And Saori Araki’s outfit ticks all those boxes — while still managing to break the internet.

Some even speculated the post was satirical, given the late-night timestamp paired with a “good morning” greeting.
That ironic tone hit a relatable nerve, especially in Japan, where a 2023 Labour Policy survey found that 68% of workers feel some form of burnout after returning from holidays or long breaks.
So yeah — whether it’s her beauty, the deadpan delivery, or just how perfectly she captured the post-holiday “ugh, back to work” vibe, Araki Saori served a whole mood… in corporate uniform.
