WNBA divas light up 'Orange Carpet' with bold fashion statements ahead of All-Star Game - See Pics

The WNBA divas kicked off All-Star Weekend in style Thursday night, dazzling fans with bold, elegant, and creative looks on the Orange Carpet at the Indianapolis Convention Center.

What began as a fun addition to the festivities quickly turned into a fashion-forward showcase, as players turned the carpet into their own personal runway, cheered on by hundreds of enthusiastic fans.

Los Angeles Sparks guard Kelsey Plum lit up the event in a shimmering, long-sleeved red dress and heels, calling the experience 'a lot of fun'. Indiana Fever’s hometown favorite, Aliyah Boston, wore a sleek dark gown and echoed the sentiment, saying the fan engagement added an exciting spark to the night.



WNBA stars have been steadily elevating their off-court fashion game in recent seasons, with pregame 'Tunnel Fits' becoming a cultural moment. Thursday’s Orange Carpet took it to another level.

Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese stole attention in a dramatic leopard-print coat and stylish sunglasses, making up for missing last year’s event due to travel delays.


Reigning MVP A’ja Wilson of the Las Vegas Aces turned heads in a daring maroon Di Petsa gown with a high slit and gold Saint Laurent earrings, blending glamor with confidence.


Not everyone felt at ease on the catwalk, though. Natasha Cloud of the New York Liberty admitted the spotlight pushed her out of her comfort zone. She opted for a more casual pants-and-shirt combo.


Minnesota Lynx forward Napheesa Collier enjoyed the moment but noted she may have chosen a more modest outfit had she known children would be present.

Overall, the event brought a new dimension to the WNBA All-Star festivities - one filled with personality, expression, and a whole lot of style.
