Angel Reese impressed attendees at the Victoria Secret Fashion Show on Tuesday, October 15, as the 22-year-old member of the Chicago Sky merges her basketball career with her passion for fashion during the WNBA offseason.
The athlete, who was nominated for Rookie of the Year alongside Caitlin Clark, made a striking entrance in New York City, donning a stunning red dress that captivated crowds and even outshined some of the professional models.
Reese opted for a daring outfit featuring cutouts, layered with a light blue corset, cleverly balancing boldness and modesty while confidently showcasing her figure.
This fashion-forward appearance marked a stark contrast to her typical look on the basketball court. With her hair styled perfectly, Reese, known as Chi Barbie, enhanced her features with pink lipstick and meticulous makeup to showcase her cheekbones.
After an impressive debut season where she averaged 13.6 points and 13.1 rebounds per game, Reese is taking full advantage of her downtime before the upcoming Unrivaled league starts in January.
Staying busy, Reese has traveled extensively and even made an appearance at an Usher concert, while her podcast, Apologetically Angel, has gained traction, featuring her biggest guest yet in episode six—GloRilla, a popular artist with 12 million Spotify listeners monthly.
Reese Embraces Her Girly Side
This latest venture aligns perfectly with Reese‘s assertion that she is a self-proclaimed “girly girl” off the court.
Unlike her fierce competitive nature when playing for the Sky, she shared with PEOPLE that she embraces her personal style regardless of outside opinions.
“My nails and hair and stuff are always done,” Reese expressed. “I’m being the girly girl on the court.”
“But still possessing that dog mentality to compete. Be your authentic self and don’t worry about what others think.”
