The WNBA semifinals are in full swing, and all eyes are on the two-time defending champion Las Vegas Aces and its reigning league MVP A’ja Wilson. While millions of fans are tuning in to see the action on the court, attention is also on the famed WNBA tunnel and the shoes worn for their arrival.
The Aces official Instagram account often highlights the basketball stars’ grand entrances ahead of the games on the platform, and Wilson has been known to turn heads with her fashion-forward outfits. The images are a collaboration between the Aces and Ally, who have partnered to give fans an exclusive look at the players’ ever-evolving tunnel style—and proving that the athletes are making an impact when it comes to style.
Ally Financial is a digital financial service company that provides financial products through automotive finance operations, insurance operations and more. “When it comes to fashion on the court, A’ja and her teammates are sporting a new brand this season—Ally,” the company said in a statement to FN. “Ally, a financial services company known for its relentless pursuit to drive investment in women’s sports, became the first-ever official retail banking partner and jersey patch sponsor of the Las Vegas Aces this season.”
Some of Wilson’s most memorable looks recently have been by Sergio Hudson from the designer’s fall 2024 Collection. She wore a bright red suit that consisted of a bustier stretch wool crepe fitted jacket and matching pants when she was named as the WNBA’s 2024 WNBA Most Valuable Player. The basketball star, who was recently included in FN’s list of most stylish WNBA stars, paired the look with understated beige pointed-toe pumps, and after her speech, she posed for photos showing off her look while holding her trophy.
To kick off the first round of the WNBA playoffs, Wilson once again chose a design by Sergio Hudson. She wore a denim and leather combo bustier midi dress, similar to one from last season. The dress featured a gold zipper going down the center, that opened slightly above the knee.
The opening revealed a pair of Fritz knee-high boots by Smash Shoes, which is a brand that focuses on extended sizes. The Fritz boot is available in a range of colors and feature a Lycra stretch material that wraps around the leg, and has a slightly squared toe.
After losing their game against the New York Liberty on Oct. 1, the Aces are now on the brink of elimination but rest assured, Wilson and her teammates will continue serving on and off the court. The teams will face off again for Game 3 on Oct. 4 at 9:30 p.m. ET.
