Although Angel Reese wasn’t walking the runway at the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, the WNBA star certainly managed to grab attention among a host of celebrities and models.
The 22-year-old Chicago Sky forward made a stunning appearance at the fashion event in New York City on Tuesday (October 15), turning heads in a bold red crochet dress with delicate spaghetti straps. Her look was further elevated by red beads that adorned the dress, a matching long-sleeve sweater, and a stylish gold choker necklace. Reese accessorized with diamond rings, silver earrings, and completed her ensemble with a sophisticated updo and light pink lipstick.
Fans took to X (formerly Twitter) to praise Reese’s striking appearance. One fan gushed, “Looking gorgeous and beautiful,” while another chimed in, “She looks darling. Like so adorable.” A third fan exclaimed, “Put her in the show, she ateee.”
Reese has been enjoying a moment in the spotlight, both on and off the court. Fresh off her first season in the WNBA, she made history by setting several records, including the most single-season rebounds (446), offensive rebounds (172), and an overall rebounding average (13.1). Her impressive rookie campaign also saw her become the first rookie to post a double-double in an All-Star Game and set a new rookie record with 24 double-doubles. Reese made further headlines by being the first WNBA player to record back-to-back games with 20 or more rebounds.
Outside of basketball, Reese has been making waves socially as well. She was recently seen at Usher’s concert in Los Angeles, where the Grammy-winning artist even serenaded her during the performance, giving the star athlete another moment in the limelight.
The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show marked its return after a six-year hiatus, with the event being held at Brooklyn Navy Yard. Big names like Ashley Graham, Gigi Hadid, Tyra Banks, Barbara Palvin, and Kate Moss graced the runway. This year’s event also made history by featuring the first transgender models, Alex Consani and Valentina Sampaio, who wore iconic Victoria’s Secret ensembles, complete with the brand’s signature angel wings.
Reese’s appearance and style at the event solidified her growing presence in the fashion world, proving that she can shine both on and off the court.
