The Best 2024 WNBA Playoff Tunnel Looks, from A'ja Wilson to Caitlin Clark
They're bringing their style A-Game.
Paris Fashion Week is well underway, and has thus far provided shows from Saint Laurent and Dior, as well as runway appearances from Kendall Jenner, Bella Hadid, and Cara Delevingne. But even with industry's top talent in attendance, the eyes of the fashion set have shifted to somewhere a bit closer to home: Las Vegas.
Some of the nation's most talented athletes have touched down in Nevada for the 2024 WNBA Playoffs, bringing with them their own kind of heat. Athletes are, yet again, using the concrete catwalk to showcase their personal style.
Over the past year, celebrity basketball players have become almost as famous for their pre-game outfits as their athletic abilities (at least within certain crowds). They've become so acclaimed for their style, in fact, that September fashion month has already played host to some of the best, stacking front rows with ballers.
Ahead, check out the best tunnel walk outfits from A'ja Wilson, Caitlin Clark, and more.
A'ja Wilson
Starting off strong, Marie Claire cover star A'ja Wilson hit the Michelob Ultra Arena dressed all in denim. She wore a zip-up jean dress with a built-in bra made of caramel leather. Wilson styled the look expertly with suede boots and a Louis Vuitton barrel bag.
Caitlin Clark
The double-bag trend has entered the building. Caitlin Clark stepped out wearing a classic trench coat in creamy leather. Her accessories, however, were the star player, toting dual Coach bags in maroon and mustard.
Ezi Magbegor
If you're looking for weekend outfit inspiration, Ezi Magbegor's co-ord look is a great place to start. The player wore a pin stripe mini skirt with a cropped button-up. She finished with simple black loafers and contrasting socks for an easy, but stylish, 'fit.

Sydney Colson
Allow me to present my personal favorite look, courtesy of Sydney Colson of the Las Vegas Aces. She was outfitted in a leather suit that was trimmed with jumbo bubble studs. Styled with a black duffel and matching silver necklaces, she looked like a cool-girl through and through.
Megan Gustafson
Megan Gustafson gets major points for creativity. She wore a custom T-shirt with her dog, Pancake, on it. Tucked into a silver pencil skirt, the look felt playful, but elevated.
Gabby Williams
Offering a appropriately sporty take on the two-piece suit, Gabby Williams hit the tunnel in a gray jacket and matching trousers. Instead of a classic button-up, however, the player layered it over a black bandeau bra.
Skylar Diggins-Smith
Skylar Diggins-Smith kept to the streetwear vibe in a white Puma sweatsuit. She leveled-up the look with a matching crimson lip and sunglasses inside (a trademark of the effortlessly cool).
