Reese added on black patent leather heels and chunky diamond-encrusted jewelry, including a necklace and rings. She debuted platinum blond tresses, which she styled with curtain bangs. Her makeup included lip gloss and a pop of pink blush.

Like other WNBA stars, Reese has cultivated a high fashion following since going pro. In May, she was a guest at the annual Met Gala, which is widely regarded as fashion’s super bowl. She’s also been dressed by brands such as Diesel and Alexander Wang, displaying her designer “tunnel fits” ahead of the Sky’s games.

Reese was tapped as the face of Good American’s Long Inseam Denim collection in May, appearing in a campaign promoting the brand’s line of denim for tall women.

The Long Inseam Denim collection includes designs with 33- and 37-inches inseams dedicated for women taller than 5-foot, 10-inches — the industry standard for women’s denim is 30- to 32-inch inseams. Reese is 6-foot, 3-inches tall.

For her Met Gala debut that month, Reese selected a mint green gown by the British label 16Arlington. “I feel beautiful and I feel sexy,” she told WWD. The power forward also celebrated her 22nd birthday at the event.
