Sue Bird, Candace Parker and more dazzle at WNBA All-Star orange carpet event
WNBA players have dazzled all season long with their wardrobe combinations, so it’s no surprise the exceptional attire continued at the league’s orange carpet event during All-Star Weekend.
The stars of “The W” took center stage in Chicago on Friday as a number of players wore eye-catching apparel. There were so many great looks that it isn’t fair to pick one as the best of the night. But a few players did garner attention for their outfit choices.
The Seattle Storm‘s Sue Bird showed off on the runway with an ensemble featuring a blazer and dope sneakers, while Dallas Wings star Arike Ogunbowale kept things silky smooth with her attire.
Here’s a look at those fits and more from Friday’s festivities on the orange carpet:
Harrison arrived in a Jordan and Kim Shui collaboration. A necklace featuring the Jumpman logo accompanied her look, which was also accessorized with black shades and hoop earrings.
