Angel Reese at Victoria's Secret—Is she the new fashion icon in the sports world?

“NEW YORK MAKE UP ARTIST!! NEEDED TOMMORROW!!!”  That was the call Angel Reese put out last night after landing in Gotham City earlier that day. It certainly left many wondering about the plans the Chi-Town Barbie had in store for her New York visit. Well, with the latest updates, it’s starting to make sense why the Chicago Sky forward needed that extra glam for her Big Apple plans.

As a true fashionista, Angel Reese had another major event checked off her bucket list—attending a fashion show. Her Instagram stories gave fans a glimpse of her dazzling red net dress, hinting that she was headed for something special. Later, a photo started making the rounds on social media, showing Reese alongside her friend and former Chicago teammate, Kysre Gondrezick. A tweet on X confirmed the occasion: “Angel Reese and Kysre Gondrezick at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.”

Reese graced the highly anticipated Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in New York City, celebrating the event’s exciting comeback after a five-year break. She was joined by Kysre Gondrezick, who dazzled in a stunning silver décolletage. This outing marked a special reunion for the duo, who, despite a short stint together at the Chicago Sky, formed a close bond. Reese has been particularly supportive of Gondrezick, especially when her friend prepared to make her return to the WNBA this season after a three-year absence.

 

However, she was later waived by the Chicago Sky, leading to a shift in their professional paths. Since then, the two have maintained a lively online connection, with Reese even celebrating Gondrezick’s birthday with heartfelt wishes. Reuniting at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show was particularly special for Reese, who not only got to see her old friend but also posed alongside a host of celebrities.

Angel Reese shines bright at the Fashion Show

Angel Reese knows how to steal the spotlight, and her latest appearance at the fashion show is no exception. This isn’t the first time she’s made headlines for her stunning outfits. Just before the season kicked off, she turned heads at the 2024 Met Gala, where she donned a striking sequin bodice,  a custom look by 16Arlington, even while preparing for a game against the New York Liberty. Reese also made waves at the ESPY Awards, solidifying her status as a fashion icon.

With everything she’s accomplished, it’s clear that the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show was a must-attend event for Angel Reese. After all, the show hadn’t taken place in over five years, a time when she was still in high school. True to form, Reese made just the entrance. She was spotted alongside renowned artists like Coco Jones and Cardi B, adding even more glamour to her appearance.

Cardi B even included Angel Reese in her carousel post on Instagram from the event, making Reese the only person featured in that post. Later, Reese shared a clip of Bella Hadid strutting away on the runway, clearly impressed. She enthusiastically wrote, “I WAS ABLE TO WITNESS GREATNESS.”

As Reese revels in her offseason, it lefts us with one wonder: could her next guest on Unapologetically Angel be someone she met at the event or perhaps her old friend Kysre Gondrezick?
