The fashion world’s love for the WNBA is well-documented, from Caitlin Clark’s ongoing relationship with Prada (including her front-row seat at the recent Milan show) to Coach becoming the organization’s first-ever handbag partner.
The tunnel walk has also evolved into a highly anticipated fashion moment—just look at players like Angel Reese, who always steps out in a coveted pre-game look. Now, after the 2026 draft (and all those impeccable red carpet looks), it’s time to secure two things: your tickets and your courtside attire.

Thanks to basketball game regulars like Kendall Jenner, Rihanna and Hailey Bieber, courtside style is a fashion category in its own right. Unlike other sports like tennis or golf that require fighting against the elements, watching a game in an arena allows for more flexibility in attire. You can style it with a hoodie and metallic sneakers for a casual look, or throw on a sporty dress and low heels for a look that transitions easily to pre- or post-game dinner. Whatever route you take, don’t forget to incorporate your team’s colors.
Whether you’re a New York Liberty fan or have pledged your allegiance to the Las Vegas Aces, a pre-game look is a great way to kick off the game. (Reminder: The season officially kicks off on May 8.) Ahead, we’ve got five outfits recreated for the 2026 WNBA season or any other basketball game you plan to attend.
