Noah Lyles killing it at Fashion Week—Is he the most stylish athlete out there?

The last few days have been going phenomenally well for Noah Lyles and his girlfriend, Junelle Bromfield. The athletic couple has shown up in New York to enjoy the post-Paris Olympics leisure, and each day has come with a surprise in the bag. At first, Noah and Junelle entered the NY Fashion Week to relish the trends. Lyles collaborated with Willy Chavarria to showcase his sense of style. The media outlets didn’t miss framing the world’s fastest man strutting on the fashion ramp in a whole new attire—the SS25 collection, sponsored by Adidas. And that wasn’t a wrap-up. 

Meanwhile, who can forget the boastful appearance in the US Open women’s final where the couple grabbed their seats along with Sir Lewis Hamilton? The duo has 13 world championships in total, snagging from their field of sports. However, when they sat together at the legendary USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, one could expect both to discuss anything but their respective realms! But, don’t be impatient, the vacation has yet to come to an end. Now, another surprise is on the cards. 

As per the Jamaican sprinter’s X-post, Junelle Bromfield is going to make the ramp walk in the New York Fashion Week tomorrow: “Walking in my first fashion show tomorrow”. It might be a watershed moment for the couple to gain the limelight in the mecca of fashion and that too, after a few days’ gap. With Noah Lyles at the corner, everything looks to be possible. He also aptly knows how to steal a respected space in the discussion despite remaining away from the track. The prime example was present at the NYFW.

While debuting in the celebration of fashion, the 27-year-old opted for simple yet striking outwear. He chose to flaunt his athletic physique, going topless! But at the same time, his themed bandana and armed sleeve displayed ‘America’, the pride of the athlete.

After a roller-coaster Olympic appearance, this ensemble could attract a lot of nationalistic vibes around the world champion. But to carry the weight, it always needs courage. This was echoed in Willy Chavarria’s statement after presenting Noah Lyles to that avatar. 

After all, the athlete’s conquest away from his regular field couldn’t be overlooked! So, the 57-year-old fashion designer said, “Noah embodies the spirit of our new collection — resilience, strength, and the courage to stand out.”

Now, it is time to see Junelle Bromfield in a similar bold appearance. But overall, the couple is bringing about the change in the athletic world that has been needed for a long time. However, this could only be the initial stages. Noah has something big on his mind.

Have an interesting take?

Noah Lyles is moving toward making his goal accomplished 

In the Netflix series, Sprint, Noah Lyles vehemently said, “Everybody has their own vibe. I’m a showman.” With turning heads with his special performances on the track, he could surely claim that. However, the Florida native has a bold way to double up. His glamorous presence in every track and field contest exemplifies that. Remember him carrying a briefcase while coming out dapper and unveiling the Yu-Gi-Oh cards while keeping Snoop Dogg alongside him? It’s all been part of a plan. However, he revealed that.

In one of his media interactions, Noah explained, “I feel like almost an artistic director. You have all these other athletes as stars, rock stars, popular wherever they go. Track and field needs to be the same. And I’m not gonna be happy until I see that accomplished,” In his own case, Noah prefers to go along with the suggestions from his fashion designer friend, Kwasi Kessie. But to accomplish the bigger goal, he needs to disseminate the idea among others. The solution can be embarking on a new journey.

That zeal has given Noah Lyles an idea to start his fashion line. Talking about its chances, he said, “Someday for sure… I’ve always believed that I’m one phone call away from the person I need to get in touch with.” But he has yet to find the correct route. “So one day, I’m going to figure out that phone call, and I’m going to make a call, and we’re going to get that done.” Now that his ladylove is on the brink of taking up the same aura in NYFW, does it confirm that Noah Lyles has found his path?
